You do realize that Japan is about handhelds and really, only about handhelds right? The only thing that ever really sells in Japan are handhelds, even the Vita is selling in Japan compared the rest of the world where its selling like shit... Of course the n3ds is going to sell well in Japan, specially with games like MH4 and Pokemon and MH only sells freakishly well in Japan and no where else.. Japan is not a good indicator of how the rest of the world views things

What do you think will happen when the New 3ds release in North America??? There will be a huge sales spike for New 3ds on release and new 3ds will immediatly replace the older version has new top selling skew. You actually think that the older model will outsell the New 3ds once it comes to north america? 

Well obviously the old version won't outsell the new version but I don't think the boost will be zomfg. All it will do is "extend" the life of the 3ds by like a year and thats about it... All the system sellers the 3ds has are out already, there is no big game that will come out to make the n3ds a "must have" and games sell hardware, not the other way around.

And the other thing is that, at its worst, the 3ds was a successful handheld that is viewed by many as a must have platform hence the high sales, the wiiU is nothing like that and most people wouldn't care two shits about it hence the sales of that. Plus all the bad press and etc makes the wiiU a very hard purchase for many even if the games are great cause it doesn't have enough games that the other consoles are getting so doing a "New wiiU" would be pointless cause the wiiU name isn't respected at all
