My biggest surprise is that 3DS sold more HW than SW. What did 30k Japanese buy it for? Watching its case? This must be the last nail on the coffin of Malstrom theories    Still strange, because it nails one of his that actually made sense...

I ordered two myself and I have no intention of buying any of the initial games. So maybe it's not that surprising; not that I necessarily represent the consumer norm.

I really don't need to play SSFIV in 3D on a handheld (already bought SFIV twice and SSFIV so I'm done) and that's honestly the only 3DS launch game I'd even consider paying $40 for.

But when RE Mercenaries comes out, I won't have to Ebay one at inflated prices or fruitlessly chase down incoming shipments as though I have nothing better to do.

So yes, until then I'll be either looking at the boxes or looking at the UI menu screens in 3D. Oh, maybe taking low res 3D photos of various knick knacks for shits n' giggles.
