That article summed it up - 3DS had a rocky launch - Nintendo felt invincible after printing money in the last 5 years. Consumers reminded them that no, just because your brand is strong, does not give them excuse to launch shoddy product priced outrageously. If you read news everywhere, Nintendo did not have a stellar year unlike the previous years where they were laughing all the way to the bank.
