Given that N3DS is launching next year, I'd say late 2017/ early 2018.

Why do you assume that will give the boost needed? It won't. 3DS is well past its peak years and is only going to further decline.

3DS successor will launch early 16 - late 16.

If they leave it till 2017 ... their handheld part of the business will look incredibly week.

3DS will be lucky to pass 6m in 2016, given it's barely gonna do 10m this year.

I dont think anybody is saying otherwise (n3ds giving a boost) and we know its past its peak already^

Depending on how much it does this year and the line up for next year+Launch in the West, 2015 can match or maybe possibly be slightly up.

If N3DS can keep the 3DS afloat, i do not see why the new HH has to come out soon. That said, 2016 is the earliest. But i think 2017 is a possibility.

Nah, no way is the general consumer going to care if it even becomes common knowledge.

Doesn't seem to be doing great for Japan and they're the most receptive to this sort of thing.
