It's a curious thing, how people remember the 3DS's launch struggles. Everyone can tell you that it was selling poorly. But I wonder how many can put it into perspective properly.
The 3DS averaged about 87,500 weekly global hardware sales from May through July 2011. This is more than the Wii U and Vita combined averaged this past April.
I think that people tend to remember the 3DS selling poorly, but not exactly how poorly it was selling. It doesn't seem so bad anymore!
