And how do you expect that? You looking at the numbers or are you forgeting the fact that the 3DS isnt pushing exorbitantly well in the West?

Are yoru forgetting the fact that the 3DS has a shit ton of software lined up for 2014 either?


Do you genuinely believe that 3DS' 2014 lineup is stronger than 2013's?  Japan had two of their three biggest franchises this year (Pokemon & MonHun); the only things which can come close are Mario games (we've already had those in 2011/2012) and Dragon Quest.  I suppose we could have a new DQ game, but I'd imagine a decent amount of the audience is already there thanks to the two remakes we already had.

I also can't think of much that would help it in the west that we haven't already had.  Smash'll do some good work, but aside from that what's left in Nintendo's roster?  Metroid; Pikmin; Star Fox & F-Zero I suppose, but I wouldn't imagine any of those would move anywhere near as much as Pokemon/Animal Crossing/Zelda. 

Maybe I'm wrong since Luigi exceeded everyone's expectations, but still.  I don't see 2014 doing as well as 2013 barring some massive surprises.
