| lightbleeder said: First mistake: naming it 3DS. We've been through DS, DS lite, DSi, DSi XL... People think 3DS is just another DS, so they guess it's not necessary to buy it since they already own it, especially when the new one costs $250. Nintendo should've called it something different. Second mistake: pricing it at $250, it's just too much specially when you could buy a 32GB iPod Touch for few dollars more and buy a lot of casual games almost for free. Third mistake: not having a Mario title at launch. Maybe a Mario Kart or something like that.
The concept of a dedicated gaming handheld is not that much attractive anymore, but that doesn't mean it cannot sell well. Just create a great music and movie/TV service for the handheld and a lot of people is going to buy the system. |
Sir, you're spot on, especially on the first one.
