It depends. Does the NX Home sell more than the Wii U? Or, does the NX platform sell more than the Wii U and 3DS combined?  If not, then the trend isn't really broken, is it?

Oh I see, now you are combining homeconsoles and handhelds to prove NX will continue that supposed trend if sells less than both combined, let´s do the list again with that criteria, shall we?

Nintendo (handheld consoles + homeconsoles)                                                                   

3th gen: 62m
4th gen: 109m 
5th gen: 92m 
6th gen: 103m
7th gen: 250m
8th gen projection: 87m

Where is that trend you have been talking about all this time now???

"Not spinning reality" Ha Ha Ha

So did you just make a lot of those numbers up and just break apart gameboy sales over generations all willy-nilly to make the numbers look better? There have been 6 console generations, and only 4 handheld generations in the same time period, and they do not line up. For example, the gameboy spanned three home console generations, the GBA spanned 2, the DS spanned 2, and the 3DS has spanned 2,  so I'm not really sure how you can package them up over generations like that. Is the Gameboy part of the N64 generation, or is the GBA part of the generation? Probably neither. It seems to me that you quite literally made up a bunch of supposed statistics to make your stance look better.

The NX on the other hand would be the first time that the hardware (home and handheld) would release simulatenously, and be considered the same platform, so in that instance it would make sense to combine them, as it would be replacing both the Wii U and the 3DS simultaneously, would it not?

Keep on thinking you're not the one doing the spinning, though. It makes you look fantastic.
