151k ain't great. It's the worst February for a primary Nintendo handheld probably since the 1990s and it's considerably down from last year.

3DS just isn't performing the way Nintendo wants, I think in a lot of ways they are more dissapointed in it than the Wii U. I mean I think they probably kinda knew that with the Wii, they hit on an unrepeatable craze with the motion gaming gimmick and you could see the Wii brand fading a lot in its own generation. But portables have been Nintendo's bread and butter that's seen them through the N64 and GCN days, now it's in a very certain decline that seems to be getting worse every year.
