It's just a single day of the 3DS being on sale at a new price for the entire week. Also, I know someone said "Day 1 is when people usually start buying", but this is a price cut, not a new system or game (where day 1-2 is usually where this trend takes place). You also can't deny that 3DS sales would have been larger, probably over 100k, if it was on sale throughout the entire week. It's just common sense.
Not only this, but my Gamestop has been selling 3DS's left and right every single day SINCE the pricecut. "Non-stop" was the word he used. Which means, at least for me, the 3DS is going steady at a rate and not all in one big swoop. I can't say anything for certain, but no anti-defense force is going to tell me "We still need to take these numbers at face value". No. Whatever the case is, we need to wait for next weeks numbers, pre-orders or not.
Note: I'm not saying this isn't bad news for sure. This could possibly be somewhat of a flop. I'm just saying we can't say for sure yet.
