Nintendo 3DS sells out in 24 hours on Japan release

The Nintendo 3DS handheld has reportedly sold out within 24 hours of hitting shelves in Japan ? with the 3D friendly games gadget proving a smash hit in its home territory.

Nintendo has always been a huge force on home soil, so the likelihood of a sell-out for the brand new autostereoscopic Nintendo 3DS handheld was always likely.

But if reports from the likes of Andriasang are to be believed then 400,000 units have been snapped up within 24 hours ? all of the available stock from Nintendo.

UK release date

The Nintendo 3DS has a UK release date of 25 March, a day ahead of the US launch, although the amount of stock that will be arriving has not been confirmed.

In the past, Nintendo gear has been difficult to get in the UK, with the Wii in particular selling out within days or even hours of stores getting skimpy amounts of stock.

TechRadar's hands onNintendo 3DS review suggests that this will be a popular purchase within Britain, as fans race to try out the 3D screen and the improved analogue stick.

And, with the Sony NGP - the codename for the PSP 2- on the horizon, 2011 is certainly shaping up to be an exciting year for handhelds.
