By all rights, there's nothing wrong with the launch of the console. Given the environment it launched, in, it couldn't have done much better, but it still did well. Advertisements might have helped, but the sort of people that's most likely to attract can be snapped up anytime; they're not the ones Nintendo needs as early adopters.

With that said, the Tie ratio is concerning. More, it's clear now that they're not going to hit their predicted numbers; just how did they think they'd sell 24 million games by April?
