Wow, the 3DS is doing awsome! The Japanese have definitely jumped on the 3DS train.

If 3DS makes such jump becoz of new colours, just imagine what the PS3 will do in America and EMEA with the all new white and silver colours announced for next month!! It will be like PS2 numbers all over again!



3DS is a monster in Japan, contrary to WW trends.

PS3 almost back to pre-price cut levels, I'm quite disappointed. Anyway the holiday boost in Japan is usually from December to February. From what I understand Oct-Nov is about the slowest time of the year.

Anyway, Japan's weird, you see Wii doing 20k a week for a few weeks and then suddenly it drops to 10k and stays there. PS3 looked like it wouls stabilise at around 30 or at least 25k, and then this.

Not much else worth mentioning.

PS3 keeps going down..:/.
Amazing 3DS numbers.


afaik late october -through november is a pretty slow time for jpn hardware sales, so I think its just the regular seasonal drop

In Japan sales seem to pick up in december and peak at new year.



77k 3DSes sold and highest ranked game for that platform is 3 versions of Nintendogs reaching 8k sales.

Damn what's up with 3DS???? A new coulour can't make it jump like this?


I think it's also due to people buying in anticipation of the big trio of games coming out in the remainder of the year (Monster Hunter 3G, Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land).

Yep. 3D Land get a 9/9/10/10 from Famitsu. For sure this would help.

Just imagine how 3DS can perform this holiday season...200 or even 300k for a week in japan??


Thanks Acevil! I met a new user here named Firelink. ACevil...Bringing users together since 2006!

 

Well Buzzi as we saw with this weeks sales as Mario came out your predictions just may come true! I am very excited that the 3DS finally has a good chance of taking off all over the world! I hope US and EMEAA sales are great for this game. Anyone think this game will sell even half of new super mario bros. for DS?

I was sure the game would have performed better than 3D Marios, but I would have never tought it could do it from the beginning with such a low userbase. I think half of NSMB sales is in the bag...



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