GameStop president Tony Bartel gives a status update on Nintendo 3DS.

 

"In terms of recent trends, clearly, we've had 2 major events recently with the price drop on the 3DS and the recent price drop on the PS3 platform," Bartel said.

 

"That has seen a significant increase in the rate of sale of those platforms, as you would expect. So we see that as a good barometer for what is going to take place in terms of the installed base in the back half of the year. ...as we look out and we are forecasting that we will have more million-plus reservation titles, we clearly see reservations at a very strong clip currently."

 

We've heard similar reports come out of Japan, as the 3DS sold 270,000 units after its price drop. Do you plan on picking up a 3DS soon?

Should have been $169 to begin with, but good news for Nintendo.
