Thanks.
Not as big as the GBA's bump it seems, but that is due to the fact that the GBA SP also released at that time. I wonder what effect the 2DS will bring to this. It could be similar to the GBA SP, but to a smaller degree.
I think I'll stick with the 400K prediction.
Is that a revised figure? Because I have very different numbers for March 2003 (697K).
If we were to take out the sales of the GBA SP:
February 2003: 279K
March 2003: 162K
April 2003: 113K
Presumably, people who purchased Pokemon Ruby / Sapphire also took the time to purchase GBA SP Cobalt and GBA SP Platinum.
It's the one-two punch of Pokemon + new GBA SKU that caused the GBA to soar. I would give the 3DS similar momentum, but this is 2013 we're talking about, and I feel like the market for the 3DS is a unique case.
With regard to the sales data in October, although the NPD data in October has not been announced yet, we have data from the three-week period of October 7 October 27 in Japan and the two-week period of October 7 October 20 in Europe, so I would like to explain the current market situation based on this partial data.
Pokémon X/Pokémon Y greatly boosted Nintendo 3DS sales in Japan and Europe, which can be seen in the market share. We have no sales data for other companies, so we are unable to show the U.S. data here, but the sales of Nintendo 3DS are growing in the U.S. just like they are in Europe.
FWIW, the GBA figure I have for March 2003 is different from the two posted here -- but closer to Aquamarine.
That's outside my scope, sorry.How much do you have for Pokemon Ruby / Sapphire in March 2003? I have 652.6K for Ruby and 585.1K for Sapphire

It's gotten so bad with getting public data, that we're down to expecting a single number...

donny2112, today is Thursday, but it's the 14th.
You should clarify whether NPD releases on Thursday the 14th or Friday the 15th in the first post.
Yeah, it's the 14th. Sorry about that. It's a good month when I can get the OP error free. Usually miss changing the month in the events section, the url in the past threads section, or some other area. Thanks for the catch.![]()
So it's today?!?
