I'm surprised many people expect under 65 million lifetime for 3DS.
3DS is at 59.79 million by end of June 2016, before the Pokémon GO phenomenal, after July NPD and the many European region boost we saw (UK, Italy for hardware, as well Germany and France for software), i see 3DS selling AT LEAST as much as last year from now (but will most likely be even up).
3DS sold 4.77 million last year, i think it will probabily be at least 5 million this year, i personally say even 5.5-6.5 million, and of course, it won't stop selling just after NX, Nintendo will most likely continue to sells 3DS even in 2018-2019.
70 million seem the most likely scenario.
