How many 3DS did they likely sell this week compared to x1 this week or last week?

Because double a very small number still isn't impressive especially if it's a temporary bump

No offense, but while it may not be impressive in absolute numbers is kind of ironic to hear that from someone that celebrates every week how Ps4 is selling 20k on Japan on its 2nd and a half year as it that was some kind of achievement, but a dying console on a dying market increasing a 200% yoy on UK after 5 and a half years? Nah, that's irrelevant xD

Anyway, I think this article is not very clear so I don't know if this is actually true, sure is up but not sure if by that much.

No offence,  but its kinda ironic that a home console in an apparently dead market like Japan selling the same as it's predecessor is being brought into this, when the 3DS has sold nowhere near the DS.  

 

Of course 200% increase is an achievement but the point still remains it's weekly total might not be that impressive for a temporary boost and thus shouldn't be blown out of proportion.  

 

I asked what the numbers are so I can make that judgment.  Until I'm told what the console is likely selling weekly now after the boost I won't make a call on what I think of its sales.
