I'm not sure why the 3DS should be peaking now (the middle of February of all times), or why 50,000K a week for North America is bad anyway.

Care to elaborate a little?


I actually meant it's peak year, not it's peak month. And it's not 50k a week in america, it's 50k in an entire month.

 

For comparisons sake the 3DS sold around 150k this time last year, with less software and no 2DS

For your consideration...(would've imaged it, but VGChartz image poster is broken apparently)

Note that this is a "weekly" chart, and the 3DS's numbers for North America are quite clearly 50K in that week.

It's selling 50K per week in America, not per month.

He's talking about NPD numbers. The 3DS was way overtracked on VGC and is actually at 50-70k for the month. 

Might we see some sources for these sales postings, then? I did some googling and could find nothing to suggest the 3DS sold 50K in a month.

I'll readily grant that VGC may have overtracked the 3DS, but we're talking about overtracking it by a factor of five here. That seems a little ridiculous even by VGC standards.

...and it would also suggest that the Wii U was almost doubling it sales figures...and considering the state of the Wii U, I find that very difficult to believe.

Nintendo won't give out numbers, but the estimates are between 50-70k.
