How did this thing fail with great launch games, amazing hardware, and a very competitive price?

>>375677248
Overpriced without a charger yes and they already had some good shit like Resident Evil Revelations announced.

>>375677248
they had to drop the price by 80 bux 6 months after launch
they were still making profit on the console sales after dropping the price that much

>>375677248
they released shit and turned it into gold later on

I bought the 3ds on launch back in March of 2011. Where did the time go....? I want to go back.

>>375677712
because good hardware is the only true thing in that list?

>>375677316
Nintendo turned it around by lowering its price and actually releasing games for it

>>375677712
Sony fucked up by making it too expensive to develop AAA for and let it die despite it having a niche audience

>>375677248

It failed, Nintendo realized it's fuck ups, redeemed itself to be the best Nintendo handheld to date.

That's what happens when you actually put in time and effort on making good software even if the hardware is lackluster.

Actually, it did terribly until the price drop. People were predicting 3DS doom. I remember it clearly.

>Great games
It's strength was in ports. I'm looking to pay money for a handheld, not a map of Norfolk, Virginia.

>Amazing hardware
Expensive hardware and an extra $50 tacked on thanks to the rear touch pad. But hey they slimmed it down so much that you couldn't play rhythm games on it properly.

>Very competitive price
Oh yeah, it was competitive alright.
Nobody could make their handheld more expensive than the damn thing.

Which was the bigger flop? When Sony failed to push more than 40,000 units in America, or when your mom came over to settle a debt with my dick, and then I threw her on the bed to screw her with said dick?

What?

>>375678575
Vita and 3ds were the same price at launch and vita has way better hardware

>>375679047
Whole lotta good all that fancy hardware did, right? Maybe if they made games for the Vita people would have bought one.
