The nice thing is that I still have to get my first legit Streetpass meet without setting it up, and I usually have my 3DS in standby when I travel outside my city.
So figure it out how many 3DS we have in Italy...

So the 3DS consumed Italy's Console Market, as opposed to being consumed by buyers?
Tsk tsk tsk, I bet the Playstation Vita will have more luck over there. Those Italians are hard to please.

Have you got data on 3DS sales in the Uzbekistan market?
The market that matters!

I doubt they have it. But seriously these fucking Uzbeks are actually mad rich... Plenty of them won the lottery for a US Visa and now came to New York City... And the thing is, is that they came like a year ago and they are all rocking iPads/Macbooks/iPhones, how the hell do they afford that shit (really expensive with data plan lol)....

cause mario is ITALIANO
I LoL'd.
Anyway I have to wonder why it sold so well over there and not in the US.
*facepalm*
in the US it sold almost double this amount on the first week....


consider the size of italy and then the size of the US.
LET US!
Population of Italy in 2011 = 60,000,000
Population of US in 2011 = 311,000,000
Units sold in Italy in 11 months = 243,700 or .4% of the population
Units sold in the US in 9 months = 4,000,000 or 1.3% of the population
