Nintendo: Piracy to Blame for 50 Percent Drop in European Sales

Rampant piracy has slowed DS software sales in Europe by nearly 50 percent, says Nintendo.
Software sales for the Nintendo DS have recently plummeted by nearly 50 percent in Europe. The reason for such a massive decline? According to Nintendo, the blame falls squarely on piracy.
Gamasutra reports on Nintendo's claim that rampant piracy is responsible for the dropping sales in Europe. Nintendo monitored just 10 overseas websites for illegal software downloads, and, according to their findings, these sites racked up over 238 million counts of piracy during the month of June 2009 alone. The company says that if you factor in the average cost of DS games, that's nearly 11 billion in lost sales.
The falling sales in Europe look especially grim when compared to the software numbers from the same period in the U.S. and Japanese markets, which have seen sales drop 11 and 7 percent, respectively (via Asahi Shimbun).
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata hopes to combat piracy by releasing new hardware, like the upcoming 3DS, designed to make running illicit software more difficult for pirates.

Great news, and just in time for Christmas, the Nintendo 3DS has been given a launch date.
Following huge success with the Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi and more recently the Nintendo DS XL, Nintendo are now launching the 3DS which is a three dimensional version of the handheld games console. And now it has been reported that it will launch in October, much sooner than the previously predicted, March 2011 launch.
A pre-Christmas launch is great news for all those DS fans, and Nintendo have ensured that this version will not need 3D glasses to experience the format and that 3D effects will be visible without.
It has also been rumoured that the Nintendo 3DS will have vibration reactions, a 3D control stick and much more. The great benefit of the Nintendo DS series is that they are very affordable including the games and are a very appealing gift for all.
The E3 gaming expo is on in June where the Nintendo DS will be fully unveiled.
