So, maybe DS can top PS2 now and become the best selling video game system ever. It's only 2.45 million units behind and it sold 3.53 million units this year. If it does okay, it should top PS2 within 2 years .

LEts see if Wii can top PS1 now.


It doesn't matter because the DS is a HANDHELD. Two different markets, two differen't sales figures. The top two home consoles are PS2 and PS1. The top handheld is the DS. They can't be compared, and no one with common sense will ever attempt to.

You can't compare a handheld to a console. My dear friend.

The 3DS can't pass a console, because it's not......a CONSOLE.

We might as well call mobile devices consoles now just because they can play games too. Apple/Android own the console market and we didn't even know it.

In this case Nintendo is average and Sony Serperior! While In the handheld department Nintendo Dominates and Sony is way under! All Handhelds of Nintendo beat the PSP, And so will 3DS, as for Vita too early to tell but the highestbi see it going if it gets the ball running is 45mil which isn't comparable to PSP

I totaly agree. Nintendo is the king of handhelds and Sony will probably stop making them they're losing so bad. It's nice to see you come around though on the comparing of the two (handhelds and consoles). You really can't compare the two.
