3DS isn't doing that great this year. Weekly 3DS sales last year were at about 1 million at this point, this year only 700k. Nintendo really needed more then just Paper Mario this fall.
well they had 3d mario and Kart last year. I feel like those will be 2 of the systems top 5 games for its whole lifetime (Pokemon will be #1)
Seriously. At this rate, 3DS might even be down YOY at the end.
Wii U looks like it will top PSP this year, maybe with luck PSV as well. Not bad for 5 or 6 weeks.
the comparrison/decline is the most interesting part. PS3 has a 1.4m unit lead over 360, that it will likel keep. Vita WiiU and 3ds should finish strong.
3DS is currently seeing the lag from not having SM3D and MK7 this year as it has declined from last year's holiday. WiiU will finish strong I agree. Vita hasn't looked strong at all other than a decent BF (only when looking at it in context). I hope you're right as I don't want ipads to take over but both handhelds are looking shaky (obviously Vita is doing 100x worse than 3DS which is ok despite decline)
ah 2009 so full of promise...then Kinect came...
LMAO!! Pezus how much does Sony pay you to make bad news sound good?
