Ubisoft: 3DS is dead if it fails during Holidays

According to Ubisoft's European sales and marketing manager, Nintendo 3DS software sales
have increased "eight fold."
"So far retail is not euphoric. The fact that 3DS-software is still treated with great caution in the
initial and repeat orders, we see that retail waits for the commercial development. It will be
important to watch 3DS when the big Nintendo-titles are out there on holiday season. If the
machine does not sell then, it´s definitely dead," Ubisoft added.
Nintendo may have some stout competition this Holiday season with PlayStation Vita. However,
Nintendo has a robust lineup of titles set to release during the Holidays. Brand recognition for
games like Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 are sure to increase 3DS sales
exponentially.
GameStop has also seen a significant sales increase for Nintendo 3DS due to its recent price
cut.
