Is the dedicated handheld market really dying or simply returning to normal?

People just had super high exceptions for 3DS and PSV because of the DS and PSP, which is dumb if you ask me, since the DS had PS2 level sales and I don't think any handheld will ever come close to that ever again

That's all fine and good but explain the 3DS being 14 million behind the GBA too at the same point in its life cycle. 

I don't know, maybe it was because GBA had 0 competition while 3DS has to deal with the mobile market and the PSV. It's amazing that it is where it is today
