I'd believe that if the 3DS was more powerful than psp. Vita is not HD.

I think (although 2025 is a bit hard to predict for me cause idk how to market will be by then) that there will always be room for handhelds provided the "exclusivity games" are there. Like, as an example, we have phones and we have some that are quite cheap but "portable media devices" like the itouch and mp3 players stil exist and there is a market for them. If Nintendo can get the pricing right with it being sub $200 and $40 quality exclusives such as Pokemon, I think handhelds will continue to exist from Nintendo.

What I kinda wish what Nintendo would do and I know they will never do it but I wish they did is make a deal with Google! See, Apple has 3 main markets when it comes to portable/mobile devices. 1) phones 2) tablets 3) multimedia devices (like itouch/ipod)... So google has competed with them in phones quite successfully and Android has taken over iphone in terms of market share a long time ago. They are still pretty weak in the tablet market but they are still selling and have some market share. But what they havn't really gone into is the multimedia devices department! Sure, there are some android devices from Samsung that essentially does the samething as an itouch but the market share is soo little that it doesn't even matter and Google themselves aren't really trying anything in that space.

So, if Nintendo and Google made a deal and Nintendo's next OS was powered by android, the handheld would have all the games from Google Play so the third party aspect won't really be an issue and you have Nintendo exclusive games which will sell the handheld for Nintendo and gain market share for android in that space as well. But alas, it will probably never happen! Yes, it is technically a shrinking market but it is a market non the less and I do think partnering up with Google would secure them the future in the handheld space!

The 3DS is more powerful than the PSP. What planet are you on? lol!

Edit : Fun fact, psp is 272p and 3ds well ... 240p

Now you could argue that these maths are retarded, and they are, but is it really more retarded than saying how awesome it is that pokemon is now 3D in 2014 ?

 PSP was 480 X 272 (130,560 pixels) while 3DS is 800 X 240 (192,000 pixels) while also supporting a second screen of 320 X 240. Facts good sir, facts.

P.S the 3DS games look better in the vid......
