the main reason it exploded was because its price cut that came 6 months after release, cutting off roughly 33% of its price. im not saying software didnt hardware, it certainly did. but 3DS started out when the smartphone was still rising, and wasnt swinging in full force like it is now. the ipad just had one year on the market, andriod tablets were non existent or if they were, they were shitty. |
A price cut doesnt make an unappealing product appealing so you cant use that as an excuse, all a price cut does is convince people who were already interested in it to go ahead and get it.
3DS has sold as well as it has because of system selling 1st party titles like Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Animal Crossing, Smash Bros, Luigi's Mansion, Tomodachi Life and some big 3rd party titles like Monster Hunter, Yokai Watch, Dragon Quest.
If it didnt have those mass market appealing games than 3DS could cost $30 and wouldnt sell.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
