He is right. The Vita is a shadow of the PSP's success, and the 3DS is a shadow of the DS's success.

It saddened me, though.

but its absurd to expect record breaking numbers to ever be matched- the PSP and DS are not the 'norm'. Nintendo's handheld lifetime baseline sales on average probably are like 80 million hardware (GBA, GBC, etc.) The DS at 150 million is not the norm. Just like the PS2 at 150 million is not something you expect to repeat. If the PS4 ends up at like 90 million hardware sold it won't be considered a failure just because it comes nowhere near the record

Will the 3DS get to the baseline though?
