“t' quote Nintendo during E3, 'software sells hardware', which be evident in this month's 3DS results. Strong double-digit increases in the 3DS hardware sales be coupled with triple-digit digit increases in software for June sales. 3DS software sales momentum be building due t' a steady flow a content over the past few months, leading t' positive year-t'-date sales results. Animal Crossing: New Leaf also sold well in the context a first-party games for the 3DS, having the third highest first-month sales next t' two launches from holiday 2011: Mario Kart 7, 'n Super Mario 3D Land.

June 2012 be the first month a retail sales for Ouya (not counting direct sales through ouya.tv) 'n be relatively light for a new console. This may be due t' the lack a a major marquee title driving consumers t' seek out the console, low awareness due t' Ouya being a new brand, or low inventory volume due t' manufacturing constraints.” - NPD analyst Liam Callahan
