You say price cut, I hear "despite starting at $250."

I just got quoted and saw this on my way back into the thread.

The Wii, which held the "Fastest to 15m title" before 3DS... Also started at $250. It only took 2 more Months to hit 15 Million, without a pricecut and with massive shortages.

The Wii is more impressive here.

 You're a silly little carl

What's cheap for a home console is relatively expensive for a handheld

Go Nintendo either way!!! 3DS is da BAWS!!

 LOL! Love the scrutinizing face! ;)

I don't know why everyone always makes it seem not an accomplishment because it had a Price Cut.

Who cares? The other Systems could have had Price Cuts too. It is still an accomplishment!


sure they could have if they were not selling well before the price cut

if you know about console cycles you would undersyand that this will effect 3ds in the future as it will not be able to cut much price

Yeah, Nintendo got beaten by Nintendo.

IF Carl's intention was to play the 3DS down, then it didn't really work.

If you want to be really sensitive and take it as me playing down the 3DS, then you can do that I guess.

It was more me saying the Wii numbers are more impressive. They are in the OP for us to see and it puts things into perspective.

No shit Sherlock.

Doesn't change the fact that the Wii is the more impressive, despite taking longer to reach this milestone.

@bolded: lol where'd that com from?

and I find it hilarious that you're using one Nintendo console to play down another. You're clearly not very good at this

Ok you got me, BOTH Wii and 3DS are da BAWS!!! :D

Saying used a lot in England.

I'm not playing down the 3DS. This is where you're being silly. You're acting like I'm trying to put down Nintendo. I'm not. I'm good at putting down Nintendo, I should know, I've been banned enough for it.

Both consoles are sales monsters, it's just the Wii is more impressive.

This thread should also be bumped after we get the usual adjustments... Might have done it quicker than we have it, might have not made it at all.
