OMG! The 3DS exploded!

Remember guys... its all about teh phones and the tablets! Why are you buying 3DS'?! Them silly analysts.

DS/PSP in the same week

2006: 401k/140k
2007: 429k/188k
2008: 446k/217k
2009: 363k/123k
2010: 280k/115k
2011: 138k/127k

When the 3DS exploding is still well below what the DS was doing normally, I'm not sure it is the analysts that are silly.


Why dont you compare the home console numbers aswell? Its not the same envyronment and economical conditions today that you had back then. The 3DS outsold every other gaming platform platform by alot. It did double what the second one did. Yes, it exploded. Tablets and phones have nothing on the gaming market. Its silly to think that because its inherintly wrong. Phones and Tablets cant replace the games market because the controls are piss poor for gaming.

If they were to put some button inthere they would in turn lose a part of the phone market, so they cant. Therefore its all just a fad. Phones and tablets are good distractions but arent full gaming machines. It would be good for you friends the analysts to stop spewing such nonsense.
