And everyone was against me when I said the 3DS' line up is shit this year compared to last year. The proof is in the pudding.

Like what? A new Pokemon? DQXI? MH? Because those are huge games.

No



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Then why are people considering as part of the short term solution to the 3DS' bad sales.

It's because there hasn't been an Advance Wars on 3DS yet. Intelligent Systems better get a move on.

2ds is already launched in japan?

No.

 

Badat said:

Is that combined 3DS sales or only 3DS XL?

Combined



if thats true it is rare, cause the ds has beaten the PSV almost every month since its release in combined sales, I'll wait to see gemasutras published numbers before I say more though.

Yes , we need to worry about it. Reaching Vita levels is very dangerous, I think Nintendo will be in need of a successor sooner than we expected.


Holiday 2015 seems like a good release date.

Hopefully the launch is better than 3DS and is not another DS.


Errr... overall console market is down YOY everywhere, so this is not an exclusive 3DS situation. The only device that seems to be up is Vita, but not by much. 

Next-gen consoles combined sold less than 20k last week in Japan, for example.
