Really? Kids are the only explanation for 3DS-sales?

Where did i say only? I was giving examples of how the console would still be selling after so long. What's with people reading things out of context around here lately?

According to statistics bureau of Japan, there are 21 million japanese aged 0-20. If I divide that through 20, I get barely above a million kids which should reach the age to get a 3DS each year (regardless which age this is). Last year 3DS sold 2 million, this year already has nearly a million. So, even if the assume that EVERY SINGLE KID in Japan gets a 3DS, this amounts to only half the sales. And this assumption is highly doubtful, more likely every third to fifth kid gets a 3DS, meaning that the big majority of sales has to be explained differently.
