Sales - EMEAA up - View Post

The GameBoy Advance sold about 82 million units...if the 3DS ends up selling less than the GBA, will it make the system the worst selling Nintendo handheld ever??


Isn't too soon to call? Yes it would, no, I still think it won't, look at PS3 which started slow for the same reasons (price and lack of games) and where it's now, outselling even the Wii and looking to enter in the 80m range...for the fourth time I ask everyone to look at DS sales in EMEAA, they were not that different and DS was cheaper and had not a previous competitor as big as DS is. Sure, it's not doing as well as everyone, even Nintendo, though, but has plently of time to improve. The lack of big games still makes me afraid it won't happen soon, Zelda is not enough...



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)
