Miyamoto talks 3DS sales

Posted on 13 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

The 3DS isn’t off to the start that most people expected. All around the world the system just isn’t selling well. There’s a strong chance that things will change in the future. Sales will likely pick up by the holiday season, when a trio of big titles – Super Mario, Mario Kart, and Kid Icarus: Uprising – will be released.

Unsurprisingly, when asked about the reception of the 3DS so far, Shigeru Miyamoto acknowledged that “the sales curve could be better”. He said that the launch lineup also lacked “a fairly comprehensive range of games.” With new features being added to the system and new titles launching, Miyamoto expects the situation to improve.

Miyamoto’s (roughly) translated response can be read below:

“Obviously, we can consider that the sales curve could be better, especially when compared to those of our previous hardware, and we were hoping to better themselves. But we must take into account the overall context of the industry during this period , and a cooling global sales of hardware. I also think that we have unfortunately not been able to present from the start a fairly comprehensive range of games. But this is no longer the case: New features online and a series of highly anticipated games will be there for the summer. The content that our players expect happens, do not worry.”

According to GameFly, Teyon is taking their talents to the 3DS (please excuse the poor LeBron joke). Previously, the studio released a pair of “Heavy Fire” games for WiiWare. But now it appears that Teyon, through Mastif’s will be bringing the series to Nintendo’s handheld in the new game Heavy Fire: The Chosen Few. Although it would be wise to consider this a rumor for now, it wouldn’t make much sense for GameFly to put up this listing if it weren’t the real deal.

Speaking with Famitsu, Pokemon Company CEO Tsunekazu Ishihara indicated that there is another Pokemon game to come to the 3DS/DS this year. Ishihara is hoping that he will continue to surprise fans in the latter half of 2011. Pokedex 3D was released a few months ago for the launch of the 3DS eShop and Pokemon Rumble Blast will be available soon as well.

Pokemon Company’s exact plans aren’t clear, though it seems as though they’ll be supporting both of Nintendo’s portable systems. Ishihara would like to cater to DS owners and, as Andriasang reports, “show how far play can be expanded on 3DS.”

One possibility is that a Pokemon game will see connectivity between the 3DS and DS. That’s far from confirmed right now, but it is a plausible idea.

Launching Shinobi in November? Doesn’t sound like a smart move to me. By then, Super Mario 3D, Kid Icarus: Uprising, and Mario Kart 3D will probably have been released… or they will shortly thereafter.

Shinobi Hits Late 2011 and CRUSH3D Early 2012

SEGA Europe Ltd. And SEGA of America today confirmed the release dates for two of their most anticipated Nintendo 3DS™ titles. Shinobi™ will be released on November 15, 2011, while CRUSH3D™ will be released on February 21, 2012.

Shinobi for Nintendo 3DS will put players in the shoes of Jiro Musashi, the father of Joe Musashi from the original 1989 release, offering a glimpse into Musashi family history. Sporting a vast story mode as well as an innovative, yet to be announced StreetPass™ mode, Shinobi will keep players coming back for more ninja action.
