I dont understand how 3DS can be lumped in the same category as PS3/360/Vita/Wii/WiiU. Hasnt it sold more than those 5 combined this year?

But regardless, thank you for trying to get 3DS numbers this month.

3DS sstill sells somewhat well hardware-wise, but it tends to be very weak software-wise. Third-party sales are low to non-existent....it's basically The Nintendo Machine. It's the only somewhat-viable platform in a quickly-dying market...and it's about to get supplanted by its successor in 7 months.

I get where youre coming from, im just saying i wouldnt put it in the same boat as the other platforms listed since it currently sells as much as all them combined.

By the way, if NX is primarily a handheld will you give numbers for it?
