At least the 3DS will come with great games, so I believe it can make it ;)

I hope to be one of thoose four million. Also, I hope to get Kid Icarus at least out of the launch games.

Its funny some people here thought a 300$ PS3 could turn this generation around.

Also, 3DS appeals to more people than the iPhone does.

I don't think they'll have much of a problem doing so.

Blame the search function, or lack of it, or else this would happen to me a lot less.

Link, please?

Seems like there's a mistake in the note, the original says Year not month

"For the current fiscal term ending March 31, 2011, Nintendo expects to sell 4 million 3DS system. It anticipates software sales of 15 million for the system."

Launch is February 26 in Japan, and likely released elsewhere by March 31. That really is barely more than a month.

By the last day of March 2011, it will already do half the HW in Japan. 1.3m in the USA and 700k in the EU will probably make up the rest.

EU release date = March 13th?

NA= March 6th

This means Nintendo needs to sell ~143K 3Ds units everyday.

If something like that happens, I think that record will remain untouchable for many years.

4 million is possible,but, I don't know if they can. The price might be too high for some people.
