This information comes to us ahead of the full hardware and software sales charts for Japan in a few hours- Nintendo decimated the competition. The New Nintendo 3DS launched there, and sold 233,483 units. Of these, the breakdown was as follows:
New Nintendo 3DS: 61,151
New Nintendo 3DS XL: 172,332
In addition, 3DS also ruled with software, with 3DS exclusive Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate selling over 1.7 million copies in the debut weekend. 1.7 million. Alongside Smash 3DS and Youkai Watch (and with the upcoming Pokemon OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire), it doesn't look like Nintendo's iron grip on the market will end any time soon.
