NDS Lite had a suggested retail price of ¥16,800.

3DS costs ¥15,000 and the 3DS LL model ¥18,900.

Thanks for the info.

I still believe that new games will push the system a ton soon. I don't see how its impossible that 3DS can outsell the DS in Japan.

Will that really help too much in Japan?

3DS (Week 01 to 27 2013) 1.979.471

NDS (Week 01 to 27 2005) 1.112.953
NDS (Week 01 to 27 2006) 3.696.964
NDS (Week 01 to 27 2007) 4.110.804.

gaf^

Can't hope to match the DS.

Which DS number are we supposed to be comparing the 3DS one to? The first or second one?

It appears that the 3DS is doing better this year compared to DS in 2005. It is doing far worse than DS in 2006 & 2007 though.

Wouldn't 2005 be only a year after the release of the DS, though? 2013 is two years after the release of the 3DS.

AKA, the 3DS is dead compared to the DS.

Yes, I guess it is when compared to the DS. (For now, I still think it'll pick up a ton)

What does that say for the gaming industry though? 3DS is triple the 2nd best selling system of the year...

It is certainly possible

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Maybe, but surely won't be miles behind.
