next target GBA, I can predict that it will reach that amount in 2014 if all those great games keeps poping now and then, but I don't think it will beat the DS anytime soon.

Not sure if you needed to repeat the 2007 thing in that post...Anyways, that only makes sense given that your region isn't exactly one of the main regions. I mean, if it takes Nintendo a while to send to Europe imagine how long it takes to send to all the other countries...

yeah, I don't think that's one of Nintendo's main regions. The way I think it works is first it's Japan, then North America, then Europe and everywhere else

I have the general idea right though. It goes Japan, then North America, then Europe with all Nintendo games. With everywhere else, they must have been doing it on their own or something

most likely each country can choose whether to buy the goods from other countries and have it shipped over here so yeah some countries don't buy stuff from other countries :p

A lot of people have Wiis, but the Wii faced more competitors than the Nintendo DS and GB(C) had to. Nintendo is almost a monopoly in the handheld market because Sony is its only competitor, but doesn't do as good in the handheld market. As such, it's not surprising that Wii is 3rd to those two handhelds

Well, that's a shocker, NOT. The 3DS was gonna outsell the Nintendo 64 console sooner or later. It's not a big deal. It still has a tough competitor in PS_Vita which is gaining momentum after PS4's Air Play or something like that.

Wait, PS Vita is actually gaining momentum now? How many sales are we talking here? All the same though, I'm pretty sure that the 3DS was well ahead of PS Vita thus far...

I didn't say PS-Vita is anywhere near to beating 3DS but it's gaining momentum and the new version of Vita has had some decent sales too because of the new Air Play thing in the PS4 where you can start your PS4 game on your Vita and play it on the go.

Ugh that sounds so awesome... Now I wish I had a PS4 and Vita instead of a Wii U and 3DS, It would be cool if Nintendo introduced something like that so the top screen would be like the TV and the bottom would be the gamepad but on the 3DS

It's pretty cool to continue your game on the portable PS-Vita but still I think it's just a gimmick and will require high-speed internet for uninterrupted gameplay.

That's never going to happen. Seriously. The graphical capabilities are so much different with 3DS being able to play games in 3D while there is the Wii U being able to play in 1080p on the big screen.

@dilawer I agree with you completely in that it's really a gimmick

Well I probably travel a lot more than you do and I would probably not want to bring a Wii U all around Australia just to play my Wii U games. I am going to france right now...

The 3DS will take the 6th spot by the end of the year.

The reason why the 3DS is selling so well is because of it's very good game library. The PSVita does not have games good enough like the 3DS, that's why it's lacking in sales. the specs of a console alone are not enough to keep it selling. This (3DS) is my first console in the DS family line :)

That is exactly correct! The gaming library on the 3DS is great. There is a variety of games that people can play depending on their interests.
