Who has said 3DS is basically done? I havent seen anybody say that, just that it has peaked. A system can peak and still go on to have many great years, Wii/DS each peaked in 2008 but they still went on to sell another 60 million a piece.

Yes this is  annoying some people in neogaf already talk aout the next handheld just beause 3ds sale last year are better then this years Nintendo can still release a lot of big game and make another 3ds price cut.

 

3DS is only dying in the same sense that a 40 year old man is dying because his life is half over. I believe that 3DS has peaked worldwide but it still has 2-3 years of solid sales left in it. This year has Kirby, Yoshi, Mario Golf, Smash Bros, Bravely Default (US), Disney Magical Castle (west), Dragon Quest Joker 2(Japan), Monster Hunter 4G (Japan), and more unannounced games to come. 2015 could see a decent sized price cut, Dragon Quest 11, Pokemon Z/Gen 3 remake and others that will keep sales from tanking. 2016 will probably see a successor release. I could see yearly sales being something like 2014-13.5 million, 2015-11 million, 2016-7 million which would put it at roughly 75 million by the end 2016.
