This is going to get worse! (or better... for 3DS) in the coming months




I liked this by Iwata: "Although the Nintendo 3DS has recently increased its weekly sales, it is far from a satisfactory level."

It means he's getting ready to rectify and that's what I want to hear. And if we know anything about the man this far, he's one to remedy when there is failure to meet expectations, so I'm looking forward to his mitigation of this.



@Viper. I know, it's a dream come true. After all those years of Playstation dominance, Nintendo finally finds its rightful place again.

And the awesome thing about it is that it isn't just a flood of non-gamer games like for the Wii's sales. On the 3DS, these are top tier 1st and 3rd party franchises and games. It's exciting.


Here are the European sales charts.

Germany


France


Spain


UK

And I liked this for UK: "Although there are six titles for the Nintendo platforms, the two “Mario” titles for the Nintendo 3DS have the smallest presence in the world. We need to promptly improve this situation."
