I still think the 3ds will outsell the DS in its lifetime.

It won't

It's on track too, and this is without a pokemon game or a "3ds lite"

I dont see a huge jump in sales like DS got, i could easily see 3DS selling 15-20 million for the next few years and passing 100 million but it wont reach the 25-30 million DS was doing 2007-9. What do u think 3DS Lite will do that increases sales so much?

pokemon pearl and diamond had already come out, when pokemon x and y come out the 3ds sales will BOOM.  Also, the next iteration will likely have a second circle pad, zl/zr buttons, and have a longer battery life.  both of those combined could make the sales go beyoned the 30 million mark for 1-3 years.
