October NPD: Nintendo 3DS Poised to Surpass First-Year Sales of Nintendo DS – Wii/3DS/DS sales
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
In its eighth month on the market, the Nintendo 3DS™ system crossed 1.65 million units sold in the U.S., according to the NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States. This milestone puts the platform on track to surpass the first-year total of Nintendo DS™, the best-selling game platform in U.S. history.
The Nintendo DS system sold 2.37 million units in its first 12 months (November 2004-October 2005), with approximately 50 percent of those sales occurring in the holiday time frame. With its first holiday season and the launches of the Super Mario 3D Land™ and Mario Kart™ 7 games on the horizon, Nintendo 3DS is poised to eclipse that number and establish a new benchmark for hand-held gaming launches in the United States.

There’s no question in my mind that I’ll be picking Rayman Origins up eventually. The thing is, I have no idea which version to get! I could go with the Wii or PS3 versions, or wait for the 3DS one so I’ll have it with me on the go. Decisions, decisions…

Consumers who purchase the limited edition version of Beyond the Labyrinth from Konami’s online shop will receive a “2012 AR Calender.” The item is essentially a tabletop calender with AR markers.
The white-haired female shown in trailers/screenshots will appear in a variety of costumes after you scan a particular month. Additionally, following special events in the game, the girl can be seen in costume.
An example of the AR functionality can be seen above.
