Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime has said that the massive success of Apple’s iPad has no significant impact on Nintendo’s DS sales in North America.
“We have not seen any impact on our DS business. In the first three months (2010) we’ve set two new sales records for the Nintendo DS,” he told CNBC.
“We think that through April that we’ll have the best four month time period to kick off a new calendar year that we’ve ever had with the device. So certainly we’re seeing momentum, they’re seeing momentum. I think two products can succeed at the same time.”
Nintendo will be showing off the new 3DS at the E3 next month.
