Nintendo 3DS Outperforming Game Boy Advance In Japan

wow. Such sales
Many gameboy.
very advanced.
Such 3rd dimension…
so 2001
Yeah, let’s ignore that was before the GameBoy Advance SP and that you couldn’t even play the previous model becaue the screen was too dark
word!
That’s so nice to read since the 3DS is actually a very good console due to its games. I remember that back then when it just came out I hated it a lot and I thought the 3D feature was such a stupid idea but then OoT was released for it so I had to buy it. I’m so glad I gave it a chance. I can’t say the same about the Wii U though…
3DS is a handheld device. Not a console.
Handheld console?
I fucking can! I’m in love with my Wii U!
If you fell in love with a remake/rehash that is ocarina of time then by all means buy the wii u for the wind waker.
Nah, OOT3D is like “Finally playing the game the way you always thought it looked like in your childhood” but Wind Waker HD is more like “WIND WAKER WITH DIFFERENT LIGHTING!!!!1 :DDD”
Windwaker HD is mind blowing. I mean I was with 2 friends when I turned it on and we were floored by how it looks. It is definitely worth the upgrade
Well, I haven’t got to see it in person yet, so right now I’ll take your word for it. :)
Okay, and then every PlayStation HD collection is also a remake/rehash, wouldn’t you agree? Some people like the upgraded graphics and fixed bugs. Your comment is stupid.
Its incredible to see that what the 3DS has done in 3 years is most likely to outdo the DS which has been on the market for nearly 10 years.
Mmm, I doubt it will top the ds
I always wondered this about the 3DS sales. Not that it’s bad that it’s selling, but with the high sales, who doesn’t have one at this point?
The millions of civilians that needs to be converted…
Like I said, 3DS best selling console and gaming device ever…
Do u even have a 3DS
Yes I have a 3DS XL you nitwit…
lol
I can just imagine if the 3DS has twin circle pads… It would have sold more!
GBA, GBASP, GBM.
DS, DSL, DSi, DSiXL.
3DS, 3DSXL, 2DS.
