It's going to be another mega year in Japan, and I can't imagine Nintendo will make the same mistake twice with another poor Western lineup at the end of the year.

If they do avoid that mistake, then that should be enough to see it grow again.

Will be hard to match the DS YoY, they need to double their sales. But I can definately see 17-20 Mio. sales

Some useful VGChartz tweaks

3DS needs more (big) games. Ive not bought a game for it since Febuary (RE Revelations). Other than that its a great system and has great sales. Heres to another good year for it.

Ok right!!!!! this is probably the most irrelevant post I have ever read outside Patcher (predictions) or Microsoft forum.

3DS no games worth buying since RE:R?

Its just how I feel. Ive been looking for a new game for my 3DS for a few months but nothing has caught my ey. I was going to buy NSMB2 but opted not to as I was going to get NSMBU at launch. So my point is valid.

I agree, this is exactly what happened to me and my 3DS this year. The only other games I've played on it are Chrono Trigger for DS and Metroid Fusion/Mario VS DK on the VC

Good year for sales poor year for games for me, looking forward to a few of the games lined up for this year though thankfully.
