Iwata on overseas 3DS sales
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Check out some noteworthy comments from Nintendo president Satoru Iwata regarding overseas 3DS sales below:
When it comes to the overseas markets, we do not plan to launch New Nintendo 3DS/3DS XL for the U.S. or Europe this year. Additionally, there are only a couple of big titles, “Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS,” and “Pokémon Omega Ruby” and “Pokémon Alpha Sapphire,” overseas as no “YOKAI WATCH” franchises or “Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate” will be scheduled this year there. Based on these observations, some might wonder if, apart from the domestic market, the sales of Nintendo 3DS will really be able to gain momentum in the overseas markets.
The overseas markets are different from the Japanese market in both their stages of popularization of Nintendo 3DS and their market characteristics.

Iwata discusses early New 3DS sales
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 0 comments
This information comes from Nintendo president Satoru Iwata…
Here I would like to tell you about the current situation of New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL (known as New Nintendo 3DS LL in Japan), launched on October 11 in Japan in advance of markets overseas.
The sell-through results of the two models combined was 234 thousand units, which is the largest first-week sales of remodeled devices we have ever released. New Nintendo 3DS XL has been more popular and was out of stock at many stores. We are sorry about the shortage of supply.
As you can see from the graph, the sales momentum was maintained in the second week
And third week. We feel that the new “super-stable 3D” function, new “C” stick, and accelerated CPU of the new models have been well-received by our consumers.
With the new models in addition to the consecutive release of games which could be double-million sellers, we are confident that Nintendo 3DS will establish a presence in the market in the year-end sales season in Japan.
