About a year and a half. And I wouldn't bet on a new Nintendo handheld at all, to be quite honest. But that's another story.

Why not? Do you think there will be a hybrid combinated system, or that there won't be any kind of handheld at all?

I think they will be releasing a handheld type of thing only in japan, where it still sells good. But in the west, I think they will concentrate on smartphones for their mobile games. While the numbers of the 3DS aren't particularly bad in europe and the US, they are also not anywhere near where Nintendo wants to be and I just don't see any potential for growth in that market at the moment. 

I "want" mobile games to actually be good games. But they exist in their states. Illogical reason to simply cut off millions in revenue, that isn't damaging.

I'm in the one more year camp.
