With all the kids this last Christmas asking for Tablets I think 12m dedicated handhelds is pretty huge considering that the big fans like myself already have their 3DS or 3DS XL in my case. Angry Birds was downloaded  something like 50 million times this Christmas. That tells me that kids got their tablets. I don't think any dedicated handheld is going to do as well as in the past. As a fan it hurts to say it, but it's what I think will happen. Pokemon is huge, but it's not Angry Birds huge.

Tablets and SmartPhones haven't affected the Handheld business as much as some people seem to think. 3DS sold pretty good in it's first year on market and it sold decent (due to having barely any big games) last year.

This year it'll sell (or it should) upwards of 14 Million units.
