Considering that 3DS LL is profitable now in contrast to the original model, this is a great news for Nintendo.

So, I don't know what it means but you go on to suggest the same thing I suggested (actually, I could be all anal too and then I'd say you're wrong because upscaling is totally not the same as rendering in higher native resolution, but anyway), just with PSP and Vita instead of iPad2 and new iPad.I don't think you understand what PPI means. Shrinking both those images down to the same size as the original low-res, and displaying them on the same screen will obviously make them look the exact same. Now if you displayed the screenshot on an original PSP, and then beside that you have an upscaled version on a vita screen? That's a more accurate comparison to show what high PPI does for a screen.
Chris. You got 5 variables, one inequality and one equation. This is not solvable. >:|
Okay, and more info shown on the screen. But this is a system with two screens, so yeah.Resolution doesn't just allow for prettier visuals.
'eb' isn't variable. Someone with extended knowledge for Japanese trackers would know what it represents.
Either way 99% you'll understand this tomorrow.

Not but it does allow for vastly superior picture quality. Previously unseen details become much clearer and vivid. Just take a look inside the Dolphin thread.
oh enterbrain? has combined sales or some shit.
I think you misunderstood what I was saying. All I said that resolution's only use wasn't to provide better visuals.
Despite their critical success Sony still has the weakest 1st party commercially. I'd say their focus on that over securing 3rd party exclusivity probably did more harm than good long term.
In Japan they're a real non-issue too, SCEI has never had a weaker portfolio than they do today.
Nintendo of course has by far the best commercially but does MS really have better? Outside of Halo Sony can pretty much match and surpass the sales of MS first party titles and even regarding Halo Gran Turismo is pretty close. Well if you count Kinect Adventures then perhaps but even that could have been one hit wonder...

???.???
x=???.???
y<<<x
x+y=eb
Well according to MS their top 4 franchises outsell Sony's top 10. Thing is Sony has only a few series I would say sells really well Uncharted, God of War, and Gran Turismo.
Given that eb is EnterBrain.
x=the amount of retail copies sold, which is a 6-digits number.
y=the amount of copies sold through DD (eShop + retail codes probably)
y is far less than x
x+y=over 430k, NSMB2 2 days performance according to EnterBrain.
In US
You're missing z which is probably eshop sales alone. y is the amount of retail DD codes most likely. So the 430k does include the download cards but not e-shop sales direct.
both models are selling at a profit.
Already? I thought 3DS would have just from September. Well, I suppose from now on Nintendo will probably post profits again.
The original 3DS just became profitable again, according to the latest quarterly fincancial report from Nintendo
They also mentioned that the new LL model is not being sold at a loss. So that whole losing money on hardware thing is over and done with for them.
For most of the gen MS invested less but sold more than SCE, though in the past couple years they've been hiring like crazy and growing multiple new studios. At this point MS actually has more 1st party studios than SCE, the thing is they tend to have less visibility since all (but Twisted Pixel) were formed ground up and many have yet to deliver their first commercial product.Nintendo of course has by far the best commercially but does MS really have better?

I just found this article. It seems 3DS is still NOT profitable.

Wonder which of the two is correct.
The one where Nintendo explicitly states it's no longer sold at a loss. Nintendo cannot lie about that.
Yeah i'm going with that too lol, but i thought there could be a mistranslation somewhere.
