I seriously can't understand why people are so freaking worried about this thing. And that's coming from someone who doubts that the Wii U will outsell the GameCube.

Judgment should be reserved for the holiday season. If software and hardware truly explode around that time, I think the 3DS will be okay.

It's all the people refusing to buy the first model.
What Nintendo need to do is announce a pointless revision to be released some time next year, make sure it's obvious it adds nothing, then all the people waiting will decide it's not worth it and start buying them. -- "I'm Commander Shepard, and you're standing in the biggest library in Citadel Space.

There's a reason that UK campaign exists. Also, the models latest in the DS' lifespan had to have hurt. I guarantee if Nintendo hadn't made s*** like the DSi and DSi XL and released them a mere year before the 3DS, the 3DS would be selling quite a bit better. -- http://www.nbc.com/parks-and-recreation/exclusives/ron-dancing-animated.gif ...

...so basically they acknowledge nintendo's putting a ton of effort into this, ignore the position the 3ds is in with no outside competition at the moment, yet.... try to compare it to "well if X dropped and failed Y will too." ....yeah that doesn't work.

And did anyone even bother to read the article first?
"Is it a sure thing that the 3DS is going to continue to underperform? No, not necessarily. All of these situations are different, and the effort Nintendo is putting into incentivizing the system is unprecedented. But it's something to be wary of. History has shown that when consumers decide they don't want a system right out of the gate, it's really hard to ever change their mind. " That sounds pretty reasonable to me, especially since they provided actual evidence. -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBpfwpOPXNc&NR=1&feature=fvwp ~Pinkie Pie is the best pony~ ...

The comparisons they've made regarding past Nintendo systems and price drops are fair. It's premature to say with any sort of certainty that the 3DS is set to fail, but the fact that Nintendo needed to take such drastic measures so early does send some signals. It'll depend on how well it does during this holiday, and after Vita releases for a few months, before anyone can have a real idea of where it'll stand.

I can't tell if that's sarcasm, but it *is* true. Nintendo's handheld stuff will always rock once a Pokémon hits, but the non-hardcore gamers just flock to the latest shiny thing. It's why their toddlers and grandmothers business plan was idiotic, and Apple is waaaaaaaaaay better at suckering in idiots than Nintendo is.
I was being serious! People don't seem to appreciate how strong a grip Apple has on the casual market, and there's a very good chance that the "hardcore handheld" market will either be taken by the Vita or else too small to be worth catering to. Nintendo's in a very iffy spot. -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBpfwpOPXNc&NR=1&feature=fvwp ~Pinkie Pie is the best pony~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

The price drop and the upcoming holiday releases should help the 3DS out a lot. Battery life is still a concern but they can't do anything about that without a hardware revision. Maybe they could offer a battery upgrade but that seems problematic since the battery wasn't designed to be user-removable.
I think the biggest hurdle at this point is the $40 software price point. Cheaper downloadable titles help, but there aren't many that arent on DSi. Most of the 3DS exclusives are retro games, and very few actually use the 3D effect. The store is also completely terrible. They need to stop making you buy fake money in predetermined amounts. -- Black Turtle spilled my diet soda! ... Copied to Clipboard!

3DS was a fail launch, worst in nintendo history unless you count their other 3D attempt, which was just general fail.
But after the price drop and a couple new games, 3DS will rock it just fine. -- Joyrock Fresh from my first justified ban. Ever! ... Copied to Clipboard!

The 3DS's biggest competition is Apple products and Nintendo not having a clue, actually. Would you rather use a iPhone/pad in public and be accepted or yell things into a child's toy that Nintendo shoehorned motion controlss into despite the 3D sweet spot being too specific? Nintendo is completely out of touch with the real world. Apple has been pushing their system as a gaming platform. And let's face it, people would rather spend a buck on Angry Birds (well, assuming they want no ads) for a device they already own than $40 on a system they may not. Now, I'm not saying that more serious gamers would feel the same way. I'm just referring to the super casual gamers that just want games to entertain themselves for a few minutes per day, something that smartphone games excel at doing. -- Zachnorn Everything = overrated. http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/4503/qrcode857546.th.png ...
