May NPD: Wii, 3DS sales
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
The NPD Group no longer releases video game hardware numbers. And since Nintendo declined to put out a response for May’s NPD, official hardware numbers for the Wii, 3DS, and DS aren’t available.
Wedbush Securities, however, is reporting that Wii sales came in at 236,000 units. The firm also stated that the 3DS sold another 97,000 systems in May.
Wedbush provided the following commentary:
“The 3DS again failed to deliver the results we expected, leaving the industry outlook unclear near term. Without further price cuts for PS3 and 360, we expect hardware sales to trend down later in 2011, though we think that Sony and Microsoft may consider cuts around the holidays later this year. The Wii is likely to continue to have weak sales due to consumer anticipation with the Wii U, and we don’t expect the PS Vita to launch in the U.S. or Europe until next year due to supply constraints.”

Nintendo of America PR director Mark Franklin on whether developers are required to use the screen transfer feature in every game…
“We’re not making any prerequisites to any of the developers to say ‘you have to do this, you have to do that.’ What we’re showing at this year’s show is just the possibilities. That’s just an example. Certainly, that’s a possibility.
Franklin on how easy it is for developers to implement the screen transfer feature…
“I’m not going to get into the technical side, but it’s certainly up to the developers to make that choices. We’ve shown what’s possible and now it’s up to the developers to come up with content.”
