That may come as a surprise to some, since Nintendo outsells the other two combined. But keep in mind we’re talking salaries here. And in senior executive land, salary is often peanuts when compared to year-end bonuse...

3DS might not launch in 2011, Reggie Mistaken?
According to “sources” close to “Nintendo” at “Kotaku,” Nintendo President Reggie Fils-Aime may have been “mistaken” when he told Jimmy Fallon that the 3DS would be launching “Next Year.” Did Reggie forget to use the word “in” before “next year,” to cover his bases? Maybe.
