Pff, and handheld video game consoles were supposedly dead. The 3DS is doing great across the board. If only Sony would pull their sh*t together and better support the PS Vita

Japan has been looking really dead in the Hardware department, but N3DS will make it look so much better now

The question is for how long though? Is this a brief bump, or will it increase the sales significantly? Also, I think most of these buyers are already owning a 3DS, so few of these are actually NEW costumers, which is what is really needed.
