I fully agree with the OP.

I do expect 3DS sales to increase starting June but mainly through a combination of games of which Ocarina of Time is just one. I don't expect 3DS sales to reach great levels before October or so. The real system sellers this year will be Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and 3D Mario. And probably a price drop around NGP launch. This and a batch of third party releases at the end of this year should be enough to make sales go up considerably.

Nintendo was pretty stupid when they decided not to launch with a single blockbuster title. And now we're in a slump until mid June or so. Then we'll see potential million sellers each month. Look at the first party releases: Zelda, Starfox, Kid Icarus, Paper Mario, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, 3D Mario - probably in this order and with a one-game-per-month release schedule.
