For it being a release outside of the holiday period, I think the 3DS's sales are pretty amazing ...

I wouldn't have expected any less, it was the successor to what will be the most popular games console, and even though it was more expensive it was always going to sell great
I know comparisons will be drawn with the PS3 based on a more expensive successor to the most popular console ever, but the 3DS is still not too expensive and they made more than the PS3
Actually, what I find so impressive is that it has done so well without the big hitting Nintendo franchises which will certainly give it a big push sometime this year (probably)

I just saying that it has done very well all things considered ...
Breaking 500,000 units sold for a $150 system in November with a couple big first party games would be expected, but to do it in March, at $250, without any stand-out title is impressive.

But it will always be true that there will be a hardcore core (...) who will buy the console just because they are collectors and have to get thinks at launch. And I think many do see the 3D as quite a large innovation, even if opinions of the 3d have been split
