So, what about the 3DS situation? 770K seems rather low given the powa of Pokemon, Zelda and the 99$ 2DS. We might be reaching saturation fast here. The 18m objective is now completely out of reach : it sold roughly 3m in the US so far, probably as much in Europe, and 4m in Japan. They're not selling 8m in December+Q1.

Nintendo threw all its trump cards this year, there is no game capable of selling the system in 2014, even in Japan. It's going to slow down dramatically after the holidays.

It's going to be a 13 million/year seller. Which is about what the 360/PS3 would sell on any given year, so it's not exactly the end of the world. I think they will hit 14.5, maybe 15 million shipments this year though.

The impact of iOS/Android simply can't be undone, but Nintendo's putting up one hell of a fight. Vita is done.

Shamelessly stolen from GAF

I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime.

The NX will be a 900p machine

I remember like it was only yesterday when the same board was used for the PS3.

Ah good time, good time.

Interesting that Pachter was so completely wrong with his 150k prediction for Wii U. Not a surprise, he is almost always wrong with his predictions. :)
