I think people are really underestimating how many systems Pokemon is going to move. And no, it's not just going to be a one-month spike. I think the industry as a whole has a bad habit of always comparing numbers. Just because the previous system sold better or it's selling better somewhere else it doesn't mean it's totally floundering. The 3DS could be selling just as "poorly" across the board and Nintendo would probably still be seeing a nice profit. Also, Pokemon. Seriously, Pokemon. |
It's selling at a clip lower than the PSP was in the West in its early days.
Even Iwata has said they are unhappy with 3DS sales in the West.
