[quote name='007']No matter how much it has sold, I love this damn thing. As long as the next year of releases goes as planned, I'm totally satisfied.
Nintendo needs a huge marketing blitz with this, though, one that I expect to come around the same time as Zelda. Besides price, one of the bigger issues is that the public doesn't understand that this is a brand new system, which isn't helped by the '3DS' moniker.
Anecdotal evidence, sure, but when I've talked about it at work, the first thing people ask is 'So, besides the 3D, is there anything else new?'. They literally have no idea that it isn't just another iteration of the DS that just happens to do 3D.
Huge marketing blitz for casuals plus a name-recognition game out? Exactly what this system needs to really take off.[/QUOTE]
Woah, that's scary. I didn't realize that was going to be an issue.
And it's not just the "so how is this Playstation 2 different from the Playstation 1?" type of sillyness I've heard people say?
