Nintendo is probably pretty upset with those 3DS numbers. I think the hardware forecast they set was very conservative and they still missed it and they missed their software forecast by a huge gap. The weakness likely lies in the Western markets, these markets are moving away from dedicated portables entirely sadly.

Actually biggest fall in sales of 3DS was in Japan, in 2015 was sold around 1m less 3DS in Japan then in 2014, from 3.3m to 2.2.

Also 3DS this year is in its 5. year on market.

Yeah I saw the steep drop in Japan in the Media Create threads. It makes me wonder if the drop in the West was bigger than that or not.
