okay i agree with Killzone/tearaway, dont kno why i forgot about those two. Here is the thing with 3ds though, it has a new model which is $130 which no matter how great X1 or PS4 is, you can buy 2 2DS and still not even come close to the price of the hom consoles. Another thing is pokemon wont be affected as much as you think for 2 reasons. #1 Different audience and being the best game (handheld king), there will be so many fans dropping $40 easier than $400 (more money actually wen you add a game/etc). #2 EVEN IF PS4/X1 was to interfere with sales, it doesn't mean much with Pokemon cuz it comes out a month before the new consoles. Same thing i feel gta5 wont be affected cuz of over 160mil user base and 2 months earlier than next gen consoles!!! Dont underestimate 2DS+Nintendo

GTA5 will do fine, it's a big franchise, lots of advertisement and so on. I've had forgotten that Pokemon would come so early, that will probably do a big Black Friday. But I still think that NA Christmas will be affected by PS4/One. NA public loves to jump right on the newest thing.

hardcore gamers yes it'll affect, but ps4 high demand will probably not be met (like wii was) and in the us parents would rather imo buy a 2ds+pokemon(or any game) for thier child for $170+ then a ps4+knack for $460+! I see 2ds price being a huge factor in sales. Black friday or even weeks in dec we can see a $99 2DS. Who is passing up a moment to shut up their kid for $99 handheld? lol. Vita+wiiu are the wild cards here, the thing is wiiu has a handfulof games and vita has the connetivity with ps4, but to me people that lets say want both already have a vita imo. I even thought the price cut on vita would make it jump in the US from 4k-6k a week to around 30k? but then again no new software came but is right around the corner (Killzone/Tearaway)
