3DS has the wow factor for gamers and non gamers (even Nintendo haters)

A wow factor doesn't mean much, if there's no substance behind it. I hope for Nintendo's sake that they don't wait too long to release a true killer app instead of relying on the wow factor that 3D initially has for too long.

You're stating that as if there's been a true killer app for all their devices at launch, DS didn't have one till Nintendogs, oh wait 3DS has that uh I guess I'll go with Mario Kart and Animal Crossing then and that took a year to release.

Remember how the DS sold without a killer app. After the initial rush sales died down, amounting to about eight million units for its first year. Or other Nintendo systems launching without a killer app like the Gamecube.

I don't really consider Nintendogs and Cats a killer app, not in combination with the price of the 3DS.

VGC has the first year at 9.26 million but when compared to GBA that was a slow start I guess, but even GBA didn't have stand out original titles, it had its slew of SNES ports which sold many myself included on the system, I just wanted to play my SNES games on the go.

Also Rol how much do you socially game? Just wondering as that is fairly important to the reasons why Wii was such a success and is reflected in how the 3DS is designed.
