They are making more profit per unit sold selling the DS over the 3DS, I think?

Plus, Nintendo isn't pushing the 3DS as much as they did for the Wii. Maybe they intented for the slower start?

And finally, 3DS haz no gamz.

I think 3DS is more profitable, doesn't cost that much more to make yet it's about 2x the price

Maybe they learned from what happened with the Wii... If they had priced the Wii a bit higher, they could have taken advantage of the high demand, then dropped price later if needed (I remember Pachter saying something along those lines a while back lol)

I haven't bought one yet(and I'm an N fan) - waiting for gamz and/or a model with better battery

It's easy to criticise Nintendo after the fact that the Wii sold gangbuster.

Remember that Nintendo took a huge risk going completely different route with the Wii and it may have bombed.

Also true
