Beating the DS's first year wasn't the goal though. Nintendo laid out a roadmap in front of third parties, claiming which milestones would be reached at which time. Without the price drop, the 3DS would have fallen far short of these goals, so Nintendo had no other choice, unless they wanted to lose a lot of third party support. Beating the DS would have been accomplished by selling ten million 3DSes worldwide in one year. Nintendo was always aiming for close to 20 million though. |
Nintendo is insane and at $249.99 i seriously doubt 20m would have even been possible. like i've said before Ninty jumped the gun and should not have released the 3ds, but again that's just my opinion. Another stupid company making stupid decisions. it's just a matter of time before Nintendo and Sony get bought out but that's also my opinion.
