We're already at the "wait for...." stage, sales age is getting fun again! Handheld costs too much, software is shit, handheld costs too much and handheld costs too much. There is no software that Nintendo can release which will put the 3DS at DS sales levels when that thing was going, at least not at £190. Once the price lowers sure but the way this handheld has gone in this short period of time and the way a console like PS3 bombed, price matters more than anything else. Also it really does show that the predecessors success means jack shit. Unless my memory fails me of course and I'm overestimating how well the DS did in its first two years? Pretty sure it was doing stupid numbers like 200k weekly.
I'll let you know in a couple months, if we have Kaz come on stage with "three hundred and ninety nine dollars" then it's dead on arrival.
I remember it having a slow start but the fats were doing crazy numbers before the lite released. It was software that really pushed the handheld, not the lite.
Pretty sure ;/
