Dedicated Handhelds in the west really are living on borrowed time.

So how do you think this will affect your graphs? Does this down forecast suggest the 3DS could fall behind the DS?

The 3DS was poised to fall behind the DS regardless of a downward adjustment to Nintendo's forecast. It's a red ocean product, so it was never going to have an explosive growth phase like the DS.

What speaks in favor of the 3DS though is that it could very well have a longer tail than the DS, thus eventually ending up with similar lifetime sales. This will depend a lot on what third parties will do in the coming years.

Oh so it will fall behind DS? Do you think we will get graphs from Ninty? It's funny seeing all this handhelds are doomed talk when the 3DS still outshipped everything, including the fantastic selling home consoles.
