Only a few months after its launch, the Nintendo 3DS will be a significant decrease in price. Currently, sold the price of 249 $ for the United States, it will pass in the days to come to $ 169,99.
It is not usual for Nintendo to lower as the price of one of his consoles if shortly after its release in stores. There was to turn to the Wii, which has kept the same price for several years, to understand that something goes wrong with the 3DS. It is indeed unsatisfactory, since sales only 710,000 consoles have found payee in the world these past three months.
However, the 3DS is not only Nintendo console to suffer from a lack of interest on the part of the public, since the Wii has experienced a decline of 50% of its sales from last year, 1.5 million in the quarter. Same sentence for the Nintendo DS, to 1.4 million units sold in three months, against 3.1 million year last at the same time.
The reaction of Nintendo has therefore failed to wait any longer. The Japanese giant, which is not new console waiting before 2012, and the release of the Wii U, therefore operated a significant drop in price for its Nintendo 3DS, which will be effective from August 12. Given the young age of the console, the Publisher will offer compensation to those who bought the laptop after his release, offering them several downloadable games. The question is if the Wii will face the same fate, assuming that its sales continue to decline.
