The 3DS isn't even in the same ballpark as the PS2. Japan 33 weeks: 3,257,233 Americas 28 weeks: 2,903,220 EMEAA 29 weeks: 2,274,215 Total: 8,434,668 Granted that includes a holiday, but it was also supply constrained and didn't receive a huge pricecut. In the same time, the 3DS is at 5,721,774. Of course that is slightly overtracked in the US for August and substantially overtracked in September. We'll see pretty soon what Nintendo's numbers are for Europe. But I guess you were probably talking about the DS... Japan 33 weeks: 2,568,872 Americas: 28 weeks: 2,090,682 EMEAA 29 weeks: 1,395,289 Total: 6,054,843 Still quite a bit ahead, but the gap should be closed fairly soon. The real test is if it can still sell on par while the DS was actually selling huge numbers. Doing 20-30 million a year, year after year. |
Well I don't get why you're talking about the PS2 since I spoke about the best selling console of all time, not the second best! :)
And like some others already said, selling on par with the DS is not bad considering there is still no real system sellers out.
