    Well the DS had a weak launch, like the 3DS. But the 3DS is already selling well. It will be a big success.

    the 3ds isnt selling well at all

    it had a massive opening month, but since then nintendo have been crowing about disappointing sales on a weekly basis, going so far as to say that people "dont get it"

    the thing is, the new home console might be out at christmas - that's hardly going to get people buying the 3ds

    for what it is, the 3ds is overpriced and its main feature is one that 95% of players turn off. nintendo were due a relative failure, and i think itll be the 3ds

    i love nintendo, but christ the 3ds is cack at the moment and doesnt really show any signs of getting better. mario kart? ocarina 3d? meh, lets get something new and decent

    first console i ever gave back to the manufacturer due to not being used

    Im not one for handhelds... but are you even watching the press conference ?

    They already said during the conference that it would be next year. The 3DS will do just fine when the software is there such as pokemon and mario

    Agreed, I know it's only two games but looks like Nintendo are bringing out some good games for the 3DS.

    edit: Make that three games.

    not when theres also pokemon and mario on the less expensive ds

    the system will probably do okay, but thatll be about it. when you have someone like nintendo cribbing so much about bad sales a few months into a system's life, you know that something's not right

    Yeah they had to revise their sales forecast down by about 1.5 million units - they expected 5 million 3DS sales, and it only almost reached 3.5 or something. The 3DS is being outsold by the PSP in Japan. They'll be fine though, they just need to get the games out there.

    PSP Vita is like the PSP launch again, they're trying to make a console/handheld. It didn't work, and it won't work this time.
    It will be just like the PSP.
    You have seen the line-up for the 3DS right? There are a ton of console ports there. The 3DS is almost like a PSP with a 3D screen and accelerometer - look at the demo reel just shown at the conference, I've played many games like that on my PSP already.
