Iwata on 3DS - steady supply of software, launches around the world, warnings, plus Wii/DS sales
The following comments and information come from Satoru Iwata…
- “It’s important that you be able to supply software with no pause. With the DS and Wii, following the titles that were released at launch, the momentum dropped when there was a gap in software releases. We’re making plans so that this type of thing won’t happen.”
- Iwata says that similar 3D warnings are printed in manuals for most 3D TV sets, and that’s exactly what Nintendo is doing
- no specific time frame for 3DS launches in territories other than Japan, Europe and North America
- Wii sold over 2 million units in the holiday season alone
- DS sold in-line with 2009 sales
- European sales for Wii/DS were in-line with predictions
