Damn. Those are low shipments for 3DS. PS3 could be the best selling console at the moment. DS also dying damn fast. PS2 already starting to outship it. Just a year ago it looked so certain that DS would pass PS2.

Its shipped? I thought its sales, as in sold to retailers? (they used the word sales not shipped).

Ain't there a difference?

What would you say? 350k of stock on shelves/ships is just over 4 Weeks worth of stock. I dont think the Wii is too far over, maybe 100-150k or so, but nothing major.

Its shipped. Its always shipped. To Nintendo (or Sony and MS), a unit shipped is always a unit sold.

It's really not doing very well outside of Japan right now. It should look better after NSMB2 releases though.

The lower than expected loss is a slight relief though.
