Nintendo 3DS Sales Up 260 Percent Following Price Reduction

Nintendo sold more than 235,000 Nintendo 3DS™ portable entertainment systems in the United States in August, and the system finished as the No. 2 best-selling dedicated game system for the month, according to the NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States. About 185,000 units were sold following a price reduction on Aug. 12, an increase of more than 260 percent during the comparable 19-day time period in July.

“Consumers are responding very positively to the new suggested retail price of $169.99 for the Nintendo 3DS,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “With Star Fox 64 3D and the new Flame Red color launching tomorrow, and Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 arriving later this year, Nintendo 3DS will offer consumers cutting-edge entertainment and tremendous value this holiday season.”

Other Nintendo milestones reached in August include:

• Nintendo sold more than 590,000 total hardware units in August, including more than 190,000 Wii™ systems and more than 165,000 units of the Nintendo DS™ family.
• For the third month in a row, the majority of the best-selling software SKUs play on Nintendo platforms. August featured five of the top 10 and 15 of the top 20.
• So far in 2011, more than 50 million units of software have been sold for Nintendo platforms.
• In total, 540 million units of software have been sold for the Wii system and Nintendo DS family of systems combined.

The following is an official response from Nintendo of America regarding the new 3DS circle pad accessory…

“We can confirm that Nintendo plans to release the Circle Pad attachment, but Nintendo’s regional subsidiaries will make further announcements about its availability at a later date.”

This statement is very similar to Nintendo of Europe’s comment. At least we know that there are plans to bring the accessory to all markets! Monday should make for an interesting night..

This is kind of pointless now, isn’t it? You could tell pretty easily if you’re an Ambassador or not without this tool… Ah well!

If you bought your Nintendo 3DS system before August 12th, you can still register for the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Programme and receive 20 free games from September 1st onwards. To do this you will need either to have created a Friend Code and accessed the Internet before August 12th, OR be in possession of your receipt or proof of purchase for your Nintendo 3DS system.

Then, simply visit our new Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Programme Tool herewhere you can enter your data. Already registered but want to make sure? You can also check your status using the tool and for this you only need the serial number found on the back of your Nintendo 3DS system.

For more information on the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Programme, visit our dedicated webpage here.
