Down nearly 50% in Japan. If Nintendo don't do something they'll see it drop from 5m in 2013, to 2.5m in 2014. US like I said is trending for 3m, and Europe probably on par with that as they're very similar. It's certainly doing under 10k and isn't likely to sustain that. |
effect of the very early price cut. they slashed one third of its price just after six months, sales became front loaded and it killed off the possibility of any meaningful price cute down the line. once you hit a sub 200$ price range, any price cut probably wont have the same effect. at least, just one of my theories. add to that the explosing of smartphones, and no new IPs that really did huge numbers in sales.
