The Nintendo 3DS continues to set the Japanese hardware charts on fire as the console saw a 20% increase in sales in the first full week of the new year. The Nintendo 3DS sold 240,819 units which clearly propelled it above the competition. In the same week Capcom’s Monster Hunter Tri 3G managed to cross the million mark in sales, becoming the third 3DS game to do so, and the first third-party 3DS game to do so.

Wow. This is the most entertaining troll I’ve ever read.
Too much screaming didn’t bother to read.
Doesn’t Sickr run a VITA blog too? It’s that way ——–>
I also didn’t read after seeing the screenname and all caps.
Guess they hate the world.
PS: Although they said they wouldn’t step foot here again, $10 says we haven’t seen the last of that fucker. (prod, prod)
He has too much fun torturing himself by seeing how wrong Nintendo skeptics are.
Just ban this fucker, Sickr. By the way “Sickr the cronic Biased famicom masturbator,” I replied to what I assume is your comment on another post. I assume it’s you because it sounds a lot like you.
there was so much trash on this post I stop reading at “LIKE” really to post troll comments are actuality sorta “Trashy”
it was kinda that way before 3ds really
Vita falls behind the Wii.
In related news, in a strange coincidence, I’ve discovered the Wii Opera SDK while stumbling upon some old Wizardry titles….
what is that?
It’s the development kit for the Wii browser.
Are you going to make a porn site for wii now?
Gives a new way to use that Wiimote.
Any news on a possible US release of Monster Hunter?
If there was would you really even be on this site?
Still impressive. :O

Monster Hunter might not have an US release due to the fact that it doesn’t have that much of a fan base in the US, for “Americans” are only interested in point and click games and FPS games that online multiplayer has to make ends meet
.
I’m from the US, and there are tons of us that are fans of RPGs like MH you bastard.
There are at least 34 of us… *face palm*
That’s more than enough to support $100,000+ development costs right?
Dude there’s atleast 400 000 Thousand of North america that will buy this game dumbass
So, apart from the PS2, who lost sales, Vita got the lowest percentage increase… Lower than DSi!!!
Sony is not gonna like this.
Sony has bashed on Nintendo ever since the wii came out this is what they fucking deserve
And to think, Sony didn’t regard the 3DS as competition to the Vita
super street fighter was actually the first 3ds game to sell one million units
Shipped, not sold. Could be wrong though; but last I saw, that was the “shipped” number…
