So handhelds are deader and deader in the US, consoles are deader and deader in Japan. The state of Japanese development is going to be reaaaaaaally "interesting" in a couple of years.
This is the wild part to me. Throw on top of that devs that are developing for consoles will be slow to move away from PS3. It's like they never learn. If you want successful markets to make games for you have to make games early and often to make sure that a market is there. Look at the Vita. They avoided that and now all of sudden it is on an upswing in Japan, so now what? Start making games for it that won't release for another 2 years and in that time the market collapses or say "oh well, what could have been?"
