Indeed they can but I don't think they anticipated to sell out of their intiial production run of the cards.

Hmm, true. I'm also surprised though that the initial shipment is so "low." Doesn't AC tend to have huge openings?


No. The last two both opened at 300k something.

Okay. Shutting up now!



Im going to predict a 200k week for the 3ds in japan, if the figure of 800k is accurate that is.

Bold prediction.  Looks like you might have bigger balls than me.  I would probably guess about 150-175k.



Wouldn't be surprised with 200k 3DS hardware. Nothing like AC on the platform yet, and it's been highly anticipated. But maybe I'd still go with 145-150k

They did have the 3DS AC bundle and the sales of the pink and white 3DSXL have been shooting up the sales charts. I won't be suprised with sales between 150 to 200K.

There's also a NSMB2 bundle this week. In that case, might come real close to 200k! 



The 200k digital is way too high for a Nintendo console, but it turns out they were selling download codes in-store.

The 200k digital is included in the 600k total right? So 400k physical?

3 bundles, 3 weeks in a row, new black 3DSXL with MH3, AC with fancy white 3DSXL and NSMB2 with fancy red 3DSXL, add to that fairly significant releases for the three weeks after that and the 3DS will have massive sales in Japan the rest of the year. Too bad north america and europe didn't get half the push.

What does the first sentence mean? If I buy a download code in a store and download it, or if I pay for it with my credit card and download it, isn't that the same thing except for the method of payment.
