With Pokemon being released, Zelda being released and Mario Party, as well as the continued success of Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion and the introduction of the low cost model 2DS, I think that there is a huge chance that Nintendo can sell 8-9 millions of consoles during the Oct-December quarter, and that would make it more than PS Vita since launch.

Could do, Aren't Nintendo hoping for around 5 million?

Totally, hell they could possibly DOUBLE THAT.

The power that is Pokemon + MH + Zelda + new cheaper hardware.

Yes, that should be possible. Depends a bit on marketing though.

Nintendo shipped 7.65 millions of consoles Q3 last year without any big titles in USA and Europe except Paper Mario.

They could do 9 millions this year with all these offers.

japan was 5mil, too easy its at 2.4mil and it has MH4 coming in 2 weeks

without the 2ds they would of sold 15mil-17mil this year, i see much higher with 2ds if its a hit, especially with US!

It's already Q3. Do you mean Q4 (October to December)?

he might mean fiscal year, same difference

3DS from now until year's end is going to absolutely insane.
