@Killeryoshis
Why don't you put also the same week of 3DS for DS? I mean, it would be quite useful to see how DS performed in the same period of the year, even if it had more time and so a bigger chance to increase sales...For example now I have to search manually to see how DS performed in its first Christmas and if 3DS is doing better, adding this performance to your tabs would be great IMHO



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Might I suggest adding the updates to the original OP? That would make things a LOT more user-friendly and easy to keep track of for everyone, not having to plow through dozens of pages to find those comparisons.

At first I thought it would be best to reserve the past but I forgot that not everyone has the pages set to 50 posts a page. Will update the orginal.

This will keep selling huge numbers into January i suspect.

All those DS owners playing their relatives/friends brand new 3DS on Christmas Day? Every 3DS less childs reaction "I WANT 3D MARIO NOW!!!!"



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
