The 3DS price cut took effect August 12, these numbers are up to August 13, so only about a day for price cut sales and the numbers did rise from previous week. So wait till next weeks numbers for the true 3DS price cut sales. I find it hard to believe you guys didn't know this >_> sigh.......

the largest spike is always on day 1, places like gamestop and amazon have been taking post-price-drop pre-orders for weeks now. people always give the "it's just 2 days.." excuse for every release in EMEAA and it NEVER matters.  i find it hard to believe you didn't know this. 

But usually the legs are afterwards. Not that I am not suprised of a big day one since I failed to even see it being advertised on tv. For example 

Nintendo managed to sell a whopping 215,000 units of the 3DS between August 8 and 14. The price drop (from 25,000 Yen to 15,000 yen) went into full effect on August 11 (but quite a few stores in Japan actually reduced the price a few days earlier)
