3DS might not be the biggest success in terms of HW sales (relatively to previous Nintendo handhelds), but it certainly is doing very well in terms of software sales. Thoughts?

Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

Good for Nintendo. But I'm sure they would also want the 3rd party support to become as succesful, and not scare them due to dissapointing sales.
Also, most of those million-seller 3rd party games were movie license or series-licensed, and all of that public (and sales) went with mobile.

Double also, YaY ORAS has passed Emerald already!

You know it deserves the GOTY.

Bravely Default published by Nintendo? I thought it was Square?

I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Square published the game in Japa, Nintendo published it everywhere else.

This more or less just supports the sad truth that there aren't very many third-parties developing for handhelds anymore. Be it Western or Japanese, they're just not there.

In spite of the lacking 3rd party support that's evident in the 3DS' list, I find it more impressive how much successful content they've been able to push out themselves. They can really sustain their own business all by themselves.

Exactly. Imagine a possible Nintendo Fusion and we know Nintendo will keep us busy. Or in other words, imagine 3DS with the power of the Wii U and both libraries merged.

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile
