I think DS will nudge it but it's going to very tight. I hope this thread keeps going.

The numbers continue to be in 3DS's favor though the gap keeps dropping

Star fox is next week. Let's see if it gives the 3DS any boast

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

 The gap is getting smaller every week... it could be 0 in 5 or 6 weeks...

Starfox won't give a great boost, but it'll probably keep the numbers over 200k. By November 3DS should be ahead.

incredible thread...

Was anyone at the time saying that DS and Nintendo were doomed?

I mean. Ds had better launch, better launch release titles and 3DS will easily doing as good.



Switch!!!

 "The DS sounds very gimmicky to me," a source at a major publisher told GameSpot. "It's like a 'Crazy Ivan' response to the PSP."

"And while Nintendo hasn't made it official, analysts expect the DS to be released concurrently with the PSP in Q4 2004--a head-to-head contest that it is unlikely to win."
