British online video game retailer Shopto have told online gaming publication IncGamers that pre-orders for the Nintendo 3DS have been so high that the Nintendo’s forthcoming 3D hand-held is currently outselling all other hardware combined.
“3DS is currently outselling all other hardware combined and is certainly the strongest performing handheld launch for us of all time.”
“3D technology will become common place very soon and gamers will lead this market change.”
“However for now the 3DS does offer the cheapest way to start enjoying gaming in 3D. Games are already available in 3D such as Gran Turismo but with the average 3D TV price of £800 it can be an expensive purchase, especially for those who have only just upgraded to High Definition. It will be interesting to see how Nintendo capitalise on this over the next year but with PS3 reaching its 4 million mark I think its unlikely to happen overnight.”

I guess Nintendo’s worries about lack of publicity are gone.
yes!!! crush the PS3!!!!
i bet michael patcher is gonna make up some bullshit article about this.
Dude… Pachter already said 3DS will crush NGP like Kinect crushed Move.
The last sentence is curios. What is the meaning?
If Nintendo was my son I would be the proudest papa smurf ever.

Pre-ordered mine from ShopTo.net.
I am really hoping they don’t screw up with stock.
Very excitited about the 3DS. Do like shopping with shopto, great prices and fast delivery. It will be interesting to see how well Nintendo allocates stock and if it can produce enough. It looks like it’ll be difficult to get hold of for the first few weeks after launch at least.
