We must know how big the shipment was before we judge, but 400k is nothing to sniff at, consoles hit their peak 2-3 years later (in 360 and PS3's cases even more) unlike phones and tablets which have an initial strong week and month. I'm not justifying the number, just putting things in persepective, too early to call anything yet, let's see what happens in December. That said, 3DS numbers are horrific. I know they're saying it's ahead of the DS, but I can't see anything that will help it this holiday season unless the price cut rumor is true. |
100% agreed, I think this is the best analysis here regarding the subject specially when you talk about phones/tablets. I've been seeing more and more people having sales expectation for videogames as they were phones or tablets and they couldn't be more wrong! Each year there is a new iPhone model, so people will be always rushing to get the newer one as soon as it releases (hopefully it won't take any longer until they realize how stupid that is).
VGChartz desperately needs more people like you! Not kidding.
