LordtheKnight is right, people were gushing over it, saying it would sell Wii like numbers, it would crush PSP, the 3d is so great, people would not resist. That all turned out to be crap. I was one of the people who were dead wrong and Lord was actually one of the few who were right. 3DS did not set the world on fire like we thought it would, live and learn.

Maybe in this site. You just need to enter any 3DS news comments section on IGN or any other big site to see what the "hardcore'' think about the 3DS. The general consensus is that after Vita launches the 3DS will cease to exist, and after that happens nintendo is going to go bankrupt. It was the gaming press and Nintendo fans who were gushing over the 3DS, not the "Hardcore" gamers.   

THats not what people were saying at e3 2010, most people were positive or at least indifferent. Now at E3 of THIS year, the tune might have changed. Vita has a price that doesnt suck, its more powerful. THe 3DS did not meet most people's expectations especially Ninty's. Its only recent that there has been on negative turnaround.
