The 3DS will cost $129

The 3DS XL will cost $149

There are a lot of Japanese 3rd Party games that are going to be localize by Nintendo

Nintendo will release full 3D Movies to watch in glasses-free 3D, plus there's the 3DS XL (Warner Bros. & Disney & Dreamworks signed a contract, so they have no choice)

Nintendo only announce games being release in less then 12 months, if not shorter (this is a recent policy that's been going on for a year now)

Coverted Sony & Microsoft gamers buying into the system (3DS) throughout 2014.

Ironfall showing off graphics with only 7 million polygons, as compare to such over 130 million polygon graphic games as Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon & Kid Icarus: Uprising & etc.

3D catching on more with such recent movies as Gravity & Hobbit, plus NO 3D smartphones NOR tablets.

plus youTube App is just a web browser that streams HTML5 and uses the 128 MB FCRAM

plus update to do 3D streaming on Netflix. & Hulu Plus & YouTube Apps

And who knows what other surprises, if any.

Seriously, is Nintendo even marketing the 3DS for its 3D anymore? Anyway, nobody is going to buy a 3DS to watch 3D movies.

OT: Win? Possibly, but I think this year will be the 3DSs strongest, so I don't think it'll dominate next year.

Will it have the most sales next year? Yes undoubtedly.
Will it dominate? Likely.
Solely because of Smash Bros.? There's probably going to be some other stuff as well.

They should post new Wii U ads on Nintendo Video every week.



JohnMeyers on 28 December 2013

3DS costs 100 to manufacture and sells for 170. If it sales take a bit of a hit next year, Nintendo can drop the price to 139.99 and the 2DS to 99.99. It will sell like hotcakes again.

It's likely to win next year's total sales, but i doubt it will dominate when competing with two new home consoles.

Isn't it already dominating?



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch will sell better than Wii U Lifetime Sales by Jan 1st 2018

Including Japan.

 

Just from Smash alone, not including all the other greatness.

 

but..but..but...the 3D is a gimmick and causes everyone to bleed from there eyes..and..and..and...the Vita's sooo much more powerful and will annihilate the 3DS when it comes out...and...and...and...Nintendo's Doomed!!!

I just love stupid people who like to predict a winner before the race even starts.



Stop hating and start playing.

3DS has a few million+ sellers coming out in 2014 but besides Smash Bros i don't see much that screams console seller. I really hope they have some extra 3rd party support coming in to help them in 2014 because it seems as though Nintendo has pumped all their main ips into it already besides a select few. I'd really like to see some more RPGs pushed on the console in 2014 and Bravely Default is a nice start!

Yoshi's New Island
Kirby Triple Deluxe
Bravely Default
Mario Golf
Monster Hunter 4
Smash Bros
Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright

Am i missing anything?


Rodea the Sky Soldier

King of Pirates

Nintendo said they are going to localize a lot of Japanese 3DS 3rd party games

Mutant Mudds 2

Ironfall

Metroid

Pokemon Z or 3rd gen remake or rainbow

Code of princess 2

New Mega Man game, hopefully Legends 3 uncancel

New Resident Evil exclusive

Full 3D Movies

More news to come from Nintendo

Rodea the Sky Soldier - Doesn't have a release date

Mutant Mudds 2 - Solid game

King of Pirates - If release date is 2014 in Japan i doubt we see it over here in the same year. (if ever)

Ironfall - Havn't heard much about it, does it have a 2014 release date?

Metroid - No solid information on this to warrant if it exists or that it will be out in 2014

Pokemon - I highly doubt we get a main series game or remake that quick, more then likey a spinoff. Maybe Ranger or Dungeon.

Code of Princess 2 - See Metroid

Megaman - Capcom has left the Megaman series to die so i highly doubt a game is even in the making.

Resident Evil - See Metroid

 

I don't know if this was a wish list or not but for it to be 4 days until 2014 i think there should be a alot more information on games coming out for the console wouldn't you agree?

There are some people who think Gamefreak will release a second batch of Pokémon in Gen 6 with a new region. There are some in-game clues that hint at this. Of course, for now this is just wishful thinking, but I'm not opposed to the idea of spreading the release of new Pokémon during the gen. Makes the wait for a new gen much more bearable. There were also only 69 new Pokémon this gen, which is the lowest ever(though the quality is far ahead of gen 5 in my opinion). 

But why would Gamefreak hint at a new region that is NOT Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh or Unovah. A character in the game states this directly and gives you a strange souvenir that resembles the face of an as of yet unknown Pokémon. Doesn't seem like a joke to me.
