    The few news stories i've seen on the subject paint a picture of the 3DS losing serious steam after launch day. The PSP is now outselling it on a weekly basis in Japan.

    Ouch, that's horrific! Maybe it'll pick up when OOT is (re)released?

    Mostly the hard core Nintendo crowd that bought it on release. Many others are probably waiting until the library fleshes out more or the price drops. The original DS had a slow start too, so I wouldn't read too much into this.
