3DS will simply get stronger as time passes, so many games announced, hardcore and not

also, i'm playing Zelda and i'm amazed by how awesome the 3D technology of the 3DS is in a game



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

That inccludes only top-30 software sales. Count in the software sold outside of top-30 and we will get probably closer to 1:1 ration with hw/sw

They did? I can'tseem find anything resembling the built in software titles in the article.  What did it say?

They didn't mention it at all, because it's useless. Nobody is really impressed by the built-in software.


Tell that to this guy.(resist the urge to insult him)

I told you bro. Less than 1.0 attach rate.

Just wait till Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart then the attach ratio will go up to 2.

What exactly were we talking about back then? Did you give a specific timeframe or anything like that? I am pretty sure we were talking worldwide sales though.

Yes, I'm not serious. Of course it will have >1.0 in the long term. It's already hilarious it's below 2.



I think that nintendo shouldn't have put in so many free games in the system. People think they don't need to buy anything else for a while. Same thing happened with the Wii. I know plenty of people who didn't buy an acutal game for weeks after buying the Wii since they were too infatuated with Wii Sports.

They could have included the an AR games but let Face raiders be at least a $5 purchase.

That would apply, except Wii software sales did not suffer in the way 3DS has.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
