Nah I don't think it'll make it. Even though I can see 3DS reaching GameBoy numbers, at least 100m anyway (I agree the west should pick up the pace a bit), I don't see as many franchises having the potential to sell over 5m copies. I don't dare to predict which will, but I will say this; I think LoZ: ALBW has a good possibility, I see the style of the game having a 'NSMB' effect. LoZ: OoT3D isn't going to make it for sure, it's pace has stopped to a crawl and it'll be lucky to reach 4m now. Which is d*mn good for a 15 year old game anyway. I will also say that the DS has a slight chance of hitting 19 5m sellers; Phantom Hourglass only needs a couple k more...

To reach 100M, the 3DS needs to be selling at the current for the next 5 years.

Or 1-2 years where it sells above and beyond what its currently selling, then 2-3 years of gentle decline.

Yeah, I don't think he understands how the regular console cycle works, 3DS's life is still in the early stages.

Yup lol with Monster Hunter 4, Pokemon X/Y, Zelda all coming later this year, Iit should be up YoY by a good margin. Next year could very well get a redesign and a $30-40 price cut along with some more big sellers and continued success of current games, 2014 has a chance of selling even higher than this year. 2015-2016 would at that point start to decline but probably over 10 million each.
