If they still can't attract strong sales in the US after Pokemon X/Y, Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, Super Smash Bros. 3D, Zelda: LBW, Zelda: OoT 3D, Kid Icarus, NSMB2, Animal Crossing, Resident Evil Revelations, Kingdom Hearts, Luigi's Mansion 2, Nintendogs + cats, Brain Training, Mario Party, Sonic, Monster Hunter 3G, Bravely Default, Yoshi's Island, Kirby Triple Deluxe, etc. etc. etc.
And a huge price cut to the original 3DS model early in the life cycle + 3DS XL + 2DS (discounted to $99 for periods of time at many retailers) ...
I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's never going to happen. It's sold "OK" in the US, but will never be a huge winner here. Too many kids/casuals have ditched Nintendo for smart devices here. At least in Japan there are people who basically use the 3DS as their main home play console (basically, as no one is buying the Wii U or PS4). But the US doesn't have that dynamic.
