Nobody will riot, trust me. People will just take it like they always have.

The 3DS didn't end the 8th Console wars, they started it! The 3DS came out in 2011, which begun the 8th Generation. The 35 million that has been sold has been since then. The Xbox One and PS4 have already sold 2 million and 2.5 million respectively since late November! Though, of course, the original DS was the second most sold console ever with 153 million units! Even then, that is still beaten by the PS2 which sold 155 million!

And of course, that is dwarfed by the PC, who sells 300 million every year, and has a total of 1.5 billion sales since 1973.
