NINTENDO 3DS LAUNCHES IN JAPAN, INITIAL 400,000 UNITS GOBBLED UP
Japan, as usual, got the first crack at Nintendo's latest handheld gaming rig and has torn through the initial 400,000 Nintendo had available. Some of those sales were to customers waiting in a few lines up to 2,000 persons long, but those lines were exceptions to the norm -- several publications note that very few stores actually had any lines to speak of, as most Japanese electronics retailers sold out when the 3DS went on pre-order over a month ago.
US and other countries' retailers should be ready for the onslaught of customers when the 3DS arrives on their shores in the coming months.
