Thinking it over, I think I was a little too conservative.  Maybe mid 2014.  It should sell another 10-12 million or so with Pokemon, Monster Hunter, Zelda, etc.  Another 500k to 750Kish in January.  From there, a lot is going to depend on when Smash comes out or if there is another big title.  If Smash comes out early next year, then mid 2014.  If Smash comes out in like March, then it could be early.

That sounds better. I don't think Smash is coming early next year though -- I think I remember Sakurai saying something about the two versions not necessarily coming out at the same time, and the Wii U version seems like the one they're prioritizing. So it wouldn't surprise me if the 3DS version comes out later rather than sooner.
