No Japan does not make up nearly half of 3DS sales, it's more like 35%, Japan-18.5 million, Total-52 million.

U said it was down YOY despite New 3DS releasing a few weeks ago, I was simply pointing out that's not true in areas where it recently released.


I meant that the Vita has half its weekly sales in Japan, and that Japan numbers are greatly affecting the 3DS global numbers as well.

Yes, I said despite the N3DS, the N3DS launching in the West has failed to increase global sales this week and make up for lost traction in Japan and it is still my belief that we'll see the same thing that has happened in Japan happen here as well. And that is why I think it will be down yoy for 2015.


Japan hasn't lost traction, like I originally said it had a large boost this week last year. According to Media Create, 3DS will be slightly up YOY for the next 3 weeks in Japan. In these 3 weeks last year, USA average about 30k/week and Europe about 40k/week so 3DS is likely to be up YOY in the next 3 weeks globally.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
