Nintendo confirmed this morning that first-day 3DS sales in the U.S. were the highest of any Nintendo hand-held system in its history. The company, however, would not provide an exact number today. It will reveal first-week U.S. sales early next month.

"More details about U.S. sales numbers will be made public on April 14, when first-week U.S. sales figures will be tallied by the independent NPD Group," a representative said. "Nintendo worked hard to get as much product as possible to retailers on day one to meet demand, and we will continue with these efforts moving forward."

so now the big question, will the NGP out do the 3DS sales?

Considering the NGP is $300 base, it might not sell AS much, but still do well enough.

I think the 3DS will end up outselling them at first, but the nGP will overtake the 3DS in the long run.
