Forums - Sales - Italy: 3DS is the fastest selling console ever during the first 10 months

We love Nintendo for two reasons: first, we are becoming a nation of more and more old people, and now a new reason came, in Nintendo games we can make Mario die! We'd prefer to kill Mario Monti, but any Mario will do for a minor satisfaction.

Pretty good considering Italy is supposedly having some troubled times. If people are still using their disposable income to purchase your products in times of hardship then you know you have a product that has great market value.

Actually the serious problems of Italy are not about disposable income, the problems are mostly about the unbearable welfare system and the difficulties for young people to get their first job (good job that isn't a minimum wage job), and tax evasion (easy tax loopholes).

Sound about like the USA.  Just need to throw in a currency that is becoming worthless, massive debt, out of control health care costs, and worthless politicians/parties.

(just put a little tweaks in your post for the USA)

True indeed, tought I think the ones I listed are the most grave ones but that's opinable of course.



it will out sell the ds if it does in deed keep up this fast pace if the 16 m first year vs 8 m ish is any indication

nintendo is taking the right steps even w the wii u all the momentum from the wii is going to pay big dividends

based off the past every other 2 consoles will be back to back successes (nintendo did it the first time) sony did it w ps1 and ps2 and now nintendo did it with Wii
??? and the handheld is held down by the big N has been for 20+ yrs
