All I need to do is add smartphones and you see why nintendo in Japan is now David.  They are the real goliath.  The ps4 in Japan will cause a little trouble but the goliath as I said is smartphones.  Their grip has tightened so much since the 3ds released.  I guarantee the successor will not come near the 3ds.  


Your not making any sense here. 

3DS is in the Smartphone/Tablet era, it already is effected by it. Yet its going to be the "4TH" Best selling HW in Japan, Next HH doesn't need to come close to 21mil+ if its still by far #1 in japan.

I dont get what your not understanding from here. Whats even more weird is your talking high and mighty for ps4 when we dont even kno if its going to be half of 3DS Lifetime.

Also have you not seen SW Sales? 3DS with not as much games are killing it in the SW department. 

You're straying from the point. 3ds is a WW console.  Doing exceptional in japan failed to stop a massive ww decline. That's super telling.  

If the 4DS sells 15 million that is still excellent but it will be a grim picture WW. 

 

Smartphones in 2012 still had a long way to go. They are a true goliath now and now dominate japan.  Only a matter of time before software starts swapping over.  

 

I'm baffled as to how you are now only focusing on 1 region. Zoom out and look at the big picture.  

 

This thread was set up to compare good 2015 sales of one console to excellent sales of another.  I don't want to talk about future doom but you guys are giving me no choice.
