You comparing handheld to home console sales, are equally irrelevant, and it seems the only people who do this are Nintendo fans.  Wonder why.  Probably a combination of the Wii U's irrelevance month to month, and the PS Vita's irrelevance month to month.  Whatever makes you happy, I guess.

How is it irrelevant to compare two devices that have gaming as its main focus? The two major titles released for the 3DS this month are Majora's Mask 3D (a remake of a console Zelda game) and Monster Hunter 4U (a series that started out on home consoles).

The topic asks who'll win NPD this month. NPD tracks 3DS, so there's no reason what so ever to ignore it.

I dunno, for me, I just view them as different enough markets that they really shouldn't be compared.  Kind of like how I view phone/tablet gaming to be different markets from the others, etc...  Not that I really have anything against Nintendo, because I don't.  Just haven't gotten any of their hardware in awhile.
