Yes DS games sell badly they have only 13 of the Top30 games this week (and this must be one of the worst DS weeks ever)

Perhaps games that do well on home consoles simply do not sell that much on handhelds? Ever thought about that? Because of that Nintendogs etc. will suck on home consoles and FPS do not do well on handhelds.

That's actually kind of my point. I'm not trying to say it's a categorically bad idea for devs to make games on the DS. Like you said, a lot of games sell well. All I'm saying is that just SOLELY b/c a system tends to sell a ton of software and has a huge install base, it doesn't mean any and every game is going to sell well even if said game is good.

 



My Top 5:

Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger

My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 and Wii

Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.
