Probably, this year's Feb releases are not as strong iirc.I think Vita will be the only platform this year to show growth though. Everything else will be down YoY and the PS4 will suck the air out of the room for Wii U just as it has done in the west.2DS won't do much to increase the baseline in Japan. The market is not as price sensitive as in the west and the 2DS is not as portable. It is a device designed for western audiences. Take a look at the current sales split, the XL takes the majority of sales every week and it is significantly more expensive than the vanilla one. A lower price won't add much to sales in Japan IMO, it will just work to lower Nintendo's already squeezed margins.
