Will the 3DS sell better in 2016 than in 2015?

What titles specifically do u think will boost hardware sales so much next year?

Youkai 3, Youkai 1 in the west, Monster Hunter X, Fire Emblem Fates, the rumoured Pokemon Z...

I don't think a bunch of sequels are going to do a whole lot for hardware. The Yokai/MonHun/Pokemon audience is already on 3DS. The lineup looks good but it mostly appeals to the current install base.

Still, this franchises have moved most of the 3DS hardware, so it might be possible to pass this year's numbers.

Very unlikely tho, Pokemon X/Y have sold like 14 million and Pokemon OR/AS have sold over 10 million, if those games didn't convince fans to get a 3DS than why will Pokemon Z?

If Monster Hunter 3/4 Ultimate didn't convince someone to get a 3DS than why will Monster Hunter X?

If Yokai Watch, Yokai Watch 2, Yokai Watch Busters didn't convince someone to get a 3DS than why will Yokai Watch 3?

The 2016 lineup is to appeal to current 3DS owners, none of them have very strong system selling power.
