It finally happened:

3DS: 8.799.378 - in 93 weeks
PS3: 8.716.260 - in 317 weeks

But last year is becoming too "monster" for it to follow.

First 5 weeks:

2011: 877.384

2012: 896.847

Next week, Vita comparison begins - stay tuned.

Yeah, it really seems like there's no way 2012 3DS can contend with the 'Holy Trinity' 3DS of 2011.  No way it's going to reach the heights of week 50 and 51 of 2011.  Still, pretty decent with just Animal Crossing being the only truly huge title.  Next year should be interesting with Pokemon Gen 6 though (and whatever other surprises they have in store for the holiday then).

And nice, 3DS overtook the PS3 this week!
