Default 3DS by far best selling console of week ended April 2nd, DS next to last

Video Game Charts, Game Sales, Top Sellers, Game Data - VGChartz

So it appears the 3DS has far outsold every console put together, while it's predecessor becomes the second lowest selling console of the week, only ahead of the PSP.

The PS3 and 360 both sell more than the Wii while the PS3 is slightly ahead of the 360.

Although the 360 and Wii sold more in America, the PS3 sold more in Europe.

Because every other site I was on also said so lol and I forget why, something about their numbers being not accurate at all and blah blah units shipped they add instead of sold, just alot of stuff. Just saying, giving a heads up, maybe someone else will have more info.

Kinda disappointing on the 3DS department.

But then again they dropped the ball with software all together.

I think they hoped that steel diver + pilotwings would fill the gab between februari and e3. But thats clearly not the case.

They should just announce a new nintendo game for next month in order to keep the 3DS flow going. Instead of ignoring the market until the e3.

Japan is in middle of earthquake crisis, economy is sluggish, and it was released during non-holiday season. Lots of factors go into why it may or may not be doing as well as people expected.
