Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo has sold 6.47 Million Units of Software for the 3DS in 2013 (USA)

what people seem to not realise is the amount of 1st party games being sold when they are relatively cheap compared to MS and Sony productions :-/

Sounds like a very low number to me. In comparison, what has PS3 or X360 sotware sold? Probably +20 million.

More than that.

3DS has a low installbase here. 6.47 million isn't quite bad. What is troubling is that like near 5 million of that is Nintendo software. The top 10 alone is nearly 4 million.

Big difference between a 2-year-old console and those two. Nonetheless, 3DS is on its way up, PS3 and 360 are on their way down.

And according to VGChartz, these are US software sales so far this year:

That's only troubling if your not Nintendo.

A 30% software sales increase is massive, and very positive. The 3DS should bring in massive revenue for Nintendo this year.
