If all that sells through and more come in. 3DS wins Npd feb? I know the order comes out, maybe it'll be a close fight between PS4+3ds.

Not for France, I saw a bunch of them last Saturday at the hypermarket. Anyway, the boost will be short-lived, since that it will be mostly be people upgrading and not new consumers.


Yeah, like Japan it was short lived right? Anywayz, N3DS will do its job. No need to say needless things^

Edit: just in case you dont know what i meant, im saying its making 3ds overall not have a huge decline. Thats it.

Anything negative toward Nintendo is needless now?



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

"Here are our preliminary sales figures for New Nintendo 3DS launched last Friday in each region, and we are comparing the sales for the first two days to those of Nintendo 3DS XL. "

I kinda figured a more front loaded release because the N3DS has limited edition Zelda and Monster Hunter bundles that were going to bring out the collector/Zelda fan/gotta pre-order/type of audience.

Hopefully though it's an eye opener for Nintendo than advertising on real prime-time TV shows like Walking Dead and Better Call Saul pays off. Enough with hiding your ads on Nickeldeon for kids. 

I think the core nintendo fan is in his 20's so that was a wise move.  Btw is better call Saul any good?

Aren't sales still dropping in Japan?


Did you not read my post?


Gotcha.

Not bad. Perhaps a win for 3DS in the US this month, wonder how front-loaded this will be....

....still a bomb. Expect "NEW" New Super Mario Bros. on Android and The "NEW" Legend of Zelda on iPhone.

Wooh! Dodge an argument lol. Yeah its down in japan by about 10-12%. Without N3ds last year, japan #s would of probably been 2.4mil-2.5mil instead of the 3.1mil-3.2mil it did. (i think its at 1.3mil N3DS sold by end of 2014 there).

Still, it'll decline in japan this year, but instead of like 1.2mil-1.4mil it would of been, i'll say it'll be about 2.2mil-2.4mil~ish this year.
