I still think the 3ds will outsell the DS in its lifetime. |
It won't
|
It's on track too, and this is without a pokemon game or a "3ds lite"
|
I dont see a huge jump in sales like DS got, i could easily see 3DS selling 15-20 million for the next few years and passing 100 million but it wont reach the 25-30 million DS was doing 2007-9. What do u think 3DS Lite will do that increases sales so much?

pokemon pearl and diamond had already come out, when pokemon x and y come out the 3ds sales will BOOM. Also, the next iteration will likely have a second circle pad, zl/zr buttons, and have a longer battery life. both of those combined could make the sales go beyoned the 30 million mark for 1-3 years.

30+ million is stretching it, 25m is possible for maybe 1-2 years. I just dont see a new redesign having the same impact as DS Lite or DSi. Not many games need a 2nd circle pad or 2nd row of shoulder buttons and Pokemon will be huge but i dont think that alone will cause sales to increase over 100% YOY.

Their was no reason to believe that the DS Lite would have caused the DS to explode either, but it did. And I say 30+ million because I believe that the psp stole some of the DS' sales, and with the vita selling so little, I wouldn't be surprised if the 3ds ends up selling more because of it. And pokemon is going to sell a lot of units this year, no doubt about it.
