Man gone a month a 3DS goes to hell in a hens basket, what all did I miss?

The 3ds now serves an  additional new purpose from the ds. That is to get the ds audience to feel comfortable playing 3d games. Thats the whole purpose of adding adjustable stereoscopic 3d to it, similar to why they added the touch screen to the ds(and yes people at the time around launch were convinced that touch screen was a gimmick as well).

For example they want a 3d mario to sell like a 2d mario.

At the same time 3ds is serving the casual purposes of the original ds even better(because it a can do everything the ds can and more after all)

Now considering the 3ds has only around 4 mil units out there. That number is incredible. The casuals seems love 3d.

So if you still dont understand its like this, the ds served all the purposes of the gba and added a new(bring in casual gamers with ease of use with the touch screen), now 3ds serves all the purposes of the ds and added a new(get casuals to play 3d games because they can now perceive depth, so they wont be confuse whats where.)
I reckon brainage like games are now gonna be digital only, this was already so with the dsi.
And lastly nintendo seems even more secretive than ever with game announcements(eg mario 3d land was first revealed this year and is launching this same year). And this is even worse for casual games as it makes no sense to have big announcements for those games as they wont even hear it. So there is no way to tell what they are working on unless u have inside information.
