no its physically impossible, Vita is currently at 9 million, let's say 10 million by the end of the year. for 3DS to have 90% market share, it would need to be at 90 million by the end of the year.

Wait... there is something off about the math... the 3ds is at 45 million and it has 83% market share so it shouldn't need double the amount to reach 90% right? But I might be wrong cause its too early for me loll but something seems off

Two items, one have sold 1 times, one 4 times. Together 5 times. So item 1 has 20% of the whole sales and item 2 has 80% of the whole sales. Now to get item 2 to 90% it has to sell 9 times, because that is 90%. Yes, it is exactly that way, you have to double your sales to get from 80% to 90% (assuming the other thing doesn't sell at all).

Yes yes, I goofed, Early Morning T_T

For the 3DS to reach 85% market share by the end of the year, it would have to sell over 10 million in the next 11 weeks.

The market share is most likely within 3% of where it's going to stay forever.


Alright, Dengle, we all know what you must do! Buy 10 million 3DSs!

That's impossible, I don't have 1.6 billion dollars!!!

I know what to do...... I'll start a Kickstarter! The backer reward for a $170 donation will be a 3DS.
