Will 3DS Top PS2's North American First Day Sales Record?

Good points, Rol.  If they can indeed sell even close to 1m day one, they've probably got it in the bag.  However if it doesn't sell out immediately and it's dependant upon software to make up the difference, that's the wild card. 

Nintendogs/Cats and Street Fighter will likely be the biggest sellers, and neither of those will sell units on day one like a new SMB would.

Eh, the 3DS pretty much needs an attach rate of two games per system, so having one game that overshadows everything wouldn't necessarily be all that beneficial. Oddly enough it could be counterproductive as more people would just buy that one must have game instead of picking up two semi-big games in an attempt to "justify" their hardware purchase.

You all are aware of how 'big' Nintendogs was with the casual crowd? It surpassed 20 million, do NOT underestimate its power. But then again we are talking about day one, and I doubt casuals buy systems day one o_0.

What software will be available day one though?
