How can this not be 3DS' top year so far with Pokemon and 2DS???

Are you discussing retail sales or shipments ?

Because according to VgChartz data, the 3Ds sold more than 9 million until  11/23th

Since it has sold almost 40 million right now, it is impossible that Nintendo only shipped 5,13 this year, unless you´re talking about only the regular 3DS.  All data concerned the 3DS includes the 2ds and Xl versions too

He may be using fiscal year sales, instead of calendar year. The fiscal year started april 1, iirc. I'm too lazy to look up fiscal year sales, so I could be wrong. The OP's pretty vague, imo...

On a side note; did PSP outsell Vita this year...?   o_O

Calendar year shipments.

Ok. But then the numbers do not match. 

34,52 million shipments lifetime <>  39,6 million retail sales lifetime. 

What period of the calendar year does the 5,13 million shipments correspond ?

 

and cheebee... yes, it does seem that PSP sold a little better than Vita
