Yeah last gen there were 230m handhelds this gen we will be lucky to have 80m. 

 

You can minus 15m for next gen already because sony is finito,  plus I'll guess another 20-30m from the next Nintendo handheld.  I'll be surprised if their Next HH even breaks 50m. The grip tablets and smartphones have is unstoppable.  Japan is the only saving grace. 

So you expect This gen to be about 80mil (both HH) and Next gen to only have the next nintendo HH and that will hit between 30mil-40mil?

Even if next HH sold 30mil-40mil, arent you forgetting the Software behind it? Anywayz 30mil+ is still good for a HH and not dead at all. Especially when the Software is actually pretty good without there being that many games.

It looks bad but thats only in comparison to Nintendo HHs + PSP. Consoles survived on 20mil-40mil before :)


God how things have changed.  30-40m would signal the end.  Bye bye investors and software sales would be even lower.  

The age of the HH is over.  It had a great run.
