      When the New 3DS was below 1,000 they discontinued it, so it’s not going to be too long before the 2DS gets discontinued. All the 3DS systems have dropped in sales since Switch launched, you compare it to this same week last year, and it was near 50,000 units. Despite what Nintendo says, clearly the market can’t handle 2 Nintendo handheld systems, at least not in Japan.

        We have a literal crap ton of them where I work too. The Switch sells much faster and even the 2DS XLs. The winner of slowest seller though goes to the New 3DS XLs. We’ve had two in stock for MONTHS and I just noticed one of them sold lol.

    Finally a more varied lineup, still looks like ports of non-critical games sells really low (Hyrule Warriors)… for good.
    Ni No Kuni sales really low, wasn’t expecting it (while wasn’t expecting more from Valkyria, looks like a marginal game).
