On DS you had dozens and dozens of casual games that expand the popularity of the DS beyond gamerz.
Games like Brain Training, Nintendogs, Cooking Mama or Big Brain Academy;
On 3DS only gamer games are selling well ; why ? Because Casual gamerz letf for IOS/Android devices or Facebook games.
The days where Handheld devices coold reach 50 millions units sold a year IS GONE FOR GOOD !
