What? Its in its 5th year and have you not seen lifetime sales?


I'm just noticing that it's slowing down quickly. After the recent ports of Crysis 3, MGR and RE5 for Android and NVidia's effort, I think handhelds are done for. If the AAA games keep coming to mobile and someone creates a decent joystick add-on or a smartphone with buttons (that doesn't includes the same mistakes of Xperia Play) they will be a thing of the past.

HHs might be dying but with Nintendo and some good third party developers, they'll make sure It wont be completely knocked out. I even believe Sony can continue if they want to. They have third party support (at least in the west).

Want to know the secret reason why HHs wnt die anytime soon?

Pokemon/Mario Kart/Monster Hunter/Japan/Nintendo in General.

Nintendo can just put 1 new pokemon game with at least 2-3 other games and They'll never go under 10mil Sold. I really doubt they'll die in the market even with it changing ever so :)
