i dont think the concept of a handheld is turning the people off( of course tablets and other handheld devices made for more competetion) because if that was the case the ipad would have never taken off for the sheer fact that you really could do almost anything with the ipad on a iphone if you wanted, i actually think its the design the is outdated with the handhelds.
The GBA regardless of whether it ended early or not, was not going to pass the gameboy, its concept wasnt new enough and we had the psp right around the corner, maybe not a new concept but it certainly did it better than the gba. But DS comes into the game and changes everything. it had a new design, and new concept delivered and it was different and awesome compared to everything else. 3ds however, was more of the same, it literally looked like a ds lite but with a 3d screen, but casuals cant see that diference. they see another ds, luckliy for nintendo their games were so good that they were able to make it rather succseful.
vita's concept was beyond outdated, that model in a handheld looks old school in the mind of casuals.
They want something new, fresh. i think if nintendo could deliver that they could have a huge hit on their hands, BUT if its just another ds i doubt it will do that well.
