3DS XL sells 193K units at Japanese launch

4.8
The 3DS XL has sold an estimated 193,441 units in its two days on the Japanese market, according to an Enterbrain report published by Famitsu. New Super Mario Bros. 2, which was released concurrently, sold an estimated 430,185 copies. It's unlikely that number includes sales of the download version, which was launched at the same time. There must have been at least some eShop copies sold.

The original 3DS reportedly burned through its full initial Japanese shipment of 400,000 units in 24 hours, making the upsized unit's launch softer in comparison. The PlayStation Vita, the 3DS's most direct competition, sold 321,407 units in its December 2011 launch in Japan, though sales have slowed quite a bit since.

Mazda3 I don't ever see anyone playing with DS' anymore


some of my friends still do.


My friends sold theirs a long time ago :/


Usually pokemon fans, and little kids play them


pokemon, mario, link fans*
and the annoying little kids as well.


You mean *Zelda ?

Yeah, those are the main games people really play on the DS.
I really liked playing the Zelda games on the GameCube when I was little.


Wind Waker on the GameCube = Best thing ever.
