Yeah I think that's safe to say. They are the only first party with experience creating handheld games distinct from both consoles and mobile. And most third parties interested in doing handheld will obviously bank on the company with the majority hold. I think the handheld market will probably sit about where it is looking to be now, 65 to 75 mil. Which also means it's not a market worth splitting so I doubt anyone will try for that either.  I don't think handhelds are doomed because the mobile market is in such a horrible state in terms of price expectations and such that it can't sustain the games that drive Nintendo's handhelds.
