To be fair, Uncharted is bundled a hell of a lot more more though.

How so? What? 3m vs 500k+(hardware)? LTD 300K VS 40K so far this year... |
something far more rudimentary. No shelf space vs No shelf space :) at least in game retailers. Toy stores seem to do better with 3DS. However Supermarkets seem to treat Nintendo and Vita the same, as my local supermarkets stock neither Vita, 3DS or Wii U. Just PS4 and XB1 now.
*Edit - If you check game retailers, the original DS still has more shelf space then either 8th gen handheld :/
"But this week 48, 2015 that has risen to 86%"
PS4+Xbox One = 86% of console market.
Meaning Xbox360, PS3, WiiU are the last 14% ?

I was suspecting that you mean that... SInce you would be insane saying that regarding software/hardware sales!:P
However, you should have clarified it previously!:P
For psv... It's sadly way expected for obvious reasons!
But for 3DS...
I can't fathom it, almost 5 years after its release still sells great software/hardware wise.... Althougth, 3ds is almost 5 years old, that might explains the situation.
That's Nintendo's or retailers fault? DS has more shelf space...? Yeah pokemon and mario ds games keep selling well! I guess the same happens with wii, especially, given that wii still manages way big software sales taking into account its state!
The same in my country! lol I had caught A clerk in a big store of my country saying to people to buy ds or wii instead of 3ds or wii u because they're better... lol Apparently, he based that on their higher sales/bigger brand awareness! I think it's retailers choice not Nintendo's bad channels stuffing policy.
Well, Amazon is huge in the UK!:P That's something!:P
To be honest ps4/xboxone are so dominant (not just or so much in sales but in the public concsiouness too) in the UK that doen't leave much space for the rest of consoles, literally! For instance if xboxone sales drop, ps4 shelf space will grow...

I don't think it's "retailers' fault" per se. At the end of the day, they stock what sells for them. However, I do think the huge decline of handheld this gen is being felt more sharply in the UK than many other countries. Seriously, handheld in general just seems utterly doomed here. GAME I expect to be awful stockists of handheld software, but Grainger Games, they sell what "gamers" are buying. And their 3DS rack is as pitiful as their Vita rack. I guess it explains why I'm a lot more pessimistic about 9th gen handheld than many on the forum. I really don't see a way to market unless NX is the dream and Nintendo's Home and Handheld systems simultaneously. But with the handheld system a notable improvement on Vita ;p
Looks like Splatoon and MK8 is still in the race
