3DS is definitely beginning its decline though. Not beating last year's LTD with this year's line up is rather surprising, and there's hardly anything big for 2014 so far.

 

Edit: Monolith Title (Maybe 2014), Possible Pokemon Z or Ruby/Sapphire Remakes, Possible MH4G, Possible Pokemon spinoff. 2014 hasn't arrived yet and nintendo could be  hiding alot of games under there belt.

 

This was a pretty funny list to bring up when he's saying there's not a lot of big stuff "so far".

This year has kinda showed that a lot of the 3DS userbase is already there.  Presumably stuff like Monster Hunter 3G brought the Monster Hunter 4 crowd in.  So I'm not quite sure what Monster Hunter 4G would actually do for hardware.  Same with Pokemon Z.

Smash is the biggest wildcard "could be massive" for 2014.  We just don't know how much of the userbase is interested in a handheld version; and how many Smash fans would buy a console for it.
