DS Games Selling Badly: Or Why Install Base isn't the End All Be All

[forevercloud3000]

What the OP is getting at is that just because the DS has a larger install base doesn't mean all the games are automatically going to sell well. It is much more dependent on the game's popularity and how it is recieved by the general public. More fan's of a seriese just don't materialize out of thin air just because a console has a larger userbase. If the game is that spectacular then it will bring in people who do not own the system to buy it on that one. If not then it will do poorly, regardless of the hardware.
