If DS was a fluke where's the "inevitable" handheld decline?

Oh...
People here conclude that pyro says that there is no decline while what he means is that market is declining to normality, not declining to death..

Last year hardware sales were 10M. This year will be around 7M. What normality is that?

I reiterate: the handheld market is declining to death.

Just like PC because of tablets?.... lol  PC shipments were on free fall till to stabilize, while many people were prejudging the death of the market... haha Now tablets face their own huge decline and pc shipment are almost the same every quarter since 2013, 75-78m, is that bad?

Declining to normality, means to return near to standards/levels prior to 7th gen and stabilize to a viable point! I don't that the hardcore handheld console audience is more than 100m

3DS sold 7.63m in 2014, 7.9m in 2015 and it seems that it will sell more than 8m this year due to the resurgence thanks to Pokemon go+Pokemon sun and moon... 

Tell me about Pokemon go effect and the record sales of  Pokemon sun and moon? What does it mean  for you?
