It's really odd too, after it hit 40-50 (too lazy to recheck) it just stopped selling... It's been where its at since the beginning of the year practically. I feel it has to do with it not being too much of an upgrade of a standard DS Lite so the average person won't feel the need to buy one since they feel like what they have is good enough  |
That's just the charts not getting updated. :p
But yeah, 3DS sales have really fallen off this year. Looking at the annual totals, as of the latest chart update, the 3DS is sitting at a pretty piddly 4-something million for the year despite the launch of the N3DS, and sales fell about a few million in 2014 compared to 2013. I expect the 3DS to settle between 60m and 70m, but I don't expect it to hit 60m before this year is up.
