Does 3DS sales in the West literally make anyone else sick?

OT lets be real handheld are becoming less important in the west. Doesnt help that nothing of significance has released here, doesnt mean you cant still enjoy it. I know i am.

I think that is kind-off a two sided issue. If there would be quality western game support for them, I doubt that handhelds wouldent sell. Handhelds where way to reliant on Japanese software for the last decade, and untill some massive western, handheld IPs come around, I doubt the sittuation will change. Never the less, I doubt that they wil ceese to exist. They will only have lower sales, but probably higher sw attach rates.

Last decade? Handhelds have ALWAYS been reliant on Japanese software. Fact is Western devs never really gave a damn long before smartphones and tablets were a thing. If western devs didnt really care when Handhelds were at there peak they surely will not care now. They wont go away, Japan alone will keep them afloat since they seem to be only region to really care. But i wouldnt be surprised in the future they dont leave Japan
