3DS (121,921) units in the week ending April 1st.

That put it comfortably ahead of the

PlayStation 3 (23,771),
PSP (18,356) and
PS Vita's (12,105) sales combined.
 
The only people really interested in handheld gaming devices these days are kids. Adults sadly just play **** games on phones and pads as time killers instead of carrying another item.

Nintendo have targeted their audience with perfection.
 
Those vita sales are pretty bad :o :p

What's sad is that's an improvement for the Vita.

Or those who travel. Not all adults sit there playing with themselves in their bedroom/living room.

Going by that the 360 only sold 1.317
compared to 23.771 PS3's

That be 18 PS3 sold to each single 360 :eek:

Not a massive surprise really, the 3DS is significantly cheaper than a PS3 (or 360) whilst the Vita is significantly more expensive.
 
I'm suprised 3DS is doing so well, Its just a DS with added Fad.

Meh. Personally out of the handheld market, I'd prefer a Vita, but the price point is all wrong for a handheld. £100-£150 thats my limit.

Pricing makes all the difference, which is why these charts very rarely make much sense
 
3DS is more powerful than the ds and 3d is a cool function. 3DS also has some killer app games. have a ds and a psp and will probably get a 3ds first when i have the time.
 
Or those who travel. Not all adults sit there playing with themselves in their bedroom/living room.

Which is exactly what I said, not wanting to carry another item when lots of adults seem to be obsessed smart phones and tablets. So for those journeying and looking for a time filler what they have is adequate enough rather than packing another item. Especially when smart phones and tablets are so much more versatile for other things as well.
