I mean the PS vita isnt even mentioned, compaired to that the 3DS sales are pretty monsterous.

Also at 54million units sold... thats by no means bad.

Compared to the DS it's lackluster.

Well the seventh gen handheld market is the definition of anomalous with a dumbfounding 236mil units sold, up from the meat 80mil of the previous gen.  When you account for the slow start and price point issues of the 3DS and Vita and the fact the gen isn't over and they aren't far of the performance baseline of the gens prior or the DS/PSP, with a total of over 66mil sold so far.
