I have no interest in Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, or Pokemon. I do like Castelvania but with the way the series has been going I'm now a wait a see kind of guy with them.

Maybe I'm the minority. Maybe Animal Crossing sells consoles. Maybe Luigi's Mansion is just as popular as Mario 3D Land. It's possible. But I'm going by whether I and people like me would be excited for the 3DS this year. As of right now there's nothing for me. Pokemon will be big, that is certain.

You're in that case. Those games will sell consoles.

3DS- 9m

WiiU- 8m

PS3- 6m

360- 7m

Vita- 3m

NextBox- 3m

PS4- 3m

Wii- 2m

DS- 2m

PSP-1m


I'll bet you any amount of money that the 3DS will sell more than your prediction of 9m for 2013, especially now that Pokemon will come out this year.


Pokemon X/Y changes things. 3DS is going to be huge this year.

3DS-12 m

WiiU- 8m

PS3- 6m

360- 7m

Vita- 3m

NextBox- 3m

PS4- 3m

Wii- 2m

DS- 2m

PSP-1m



im just askin but wat made you think 3DS is only gonna get 9mil? (b4 pokemon announcement)

Nothing coming out this year appeals to me. That's still true becuase I don't play Pokemon, but Pokemon is huge so the 3DS will do big numbers this year. I bought my 3DS XL for my favorite Nintendo games. I have Mario 3D Land, Zelda OoT, Star Fox 64 3D, etc. I'm hoping for a Metroid or a Mario 3D Land 2, or a new Zelda or something in my favorite series. Pokemon is that game for others, not me, but it will sell 3DS machines.



Ok? but thts your appeal. Look at 2012, wat did they have? KIU, RE revelations, NSMB2, Paper Mario, AC in japan only its first 8weeks! 3DS sold close to 14mil! Now this year, NSMB2 is still pushing a little hardware, AC hasn't been out all other regions yet and is still selling hotcakes in japan, Fire emblem in other regions with free dlc for a time (certain map), Luigi mansion will push hardware alot, Another Nintendo IP if not 2 probably be shown at E3, Japan gets MH and DQ7. And Now pokemon alone will push 3DS alot!!! 3DS will do 9mil before Sept comes!

Hey, where can I find last years predictions?



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Well, you're on the optimistic side and I'm on the cautious side. It will probably be somewhere inbetween. If Nintendo shows some kick ass stuff for the 3DS at E3 and its coming out this year than it could be much higher than you predict. But if Nintendo has nothing for us other than Pokemon it could do less than I estimate if kids today really are playing $0 to $1 tablet games instead.

There is more than Pokemon coming out for the 3DS this year.

Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Pokemon, Castlevania, and that is just a few.

I have no interest in Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, or Pokemon. I do like Castelvania but with the way the series has been going I'm now a wait a see kind of guy with them.

Ok nothing against your appeal but this is predictions for hardware this year, Everyone counts! Like if i dont like Halo, That doesn't mean i think X360 will sell less it means alot more!!!
