Forums - Nintendo Discussion - 3DS reaches >5.4m units sold as of 2017 in France, 600k+ hardware sales and 3m software sales for the year.

Nous sommes également le premier vendeur de consoles en France en cumulé avec la 3DS qui fait 507 000 ( that's either a typo or the sales after switch release , given the title of the paragraph, that's more probable - switch didn't overshadowed 3ds ) unités. La 3DS continue de progresser en base installée. Elle a vendu quasiment 3 millions de jeux sur 2017. Elle a atteint un plateau extrêmement significatif.
 
Elle n'est donc pas cannibalisée par la Switch…
Ce n'est pas le cas. Ce n'est pas le même public, ce ne sont pas les mêmes jeux. Pokémon était disponible en 2017 sur 3DS uniquement. Nous avons 5,4 millions de 3DS en base installée en France. C'est la plus grande ludothèque disponible. À date, c'est le plus gros catalogue de jeux.

( somewhere in the article it's being mentioned that miitopia had an outstanding performance in France! )

 

4.765m as of 2016 http://www.gameblog.fr/news/66340-ps4-xbox-one-wii-u-3ds-ps-vita-voici-tous-les-chiffres-franc

 

Means a bit more than 600k units sold in 2017, barely yoy down, which is very impressive given the switch release and what 3ds had last year.

 

 

Software sales were down just by 10%,  not surprising going by amazon rankings.

Seriously, can't we just keep it all in one big thread instead of four?

That's a different thread actually, the other one is based on a different article where 3ds  sales tally as of 2017 isn't being cited. ( since it's switch-centric article so the  respective thread here )
