Being completely ignorant about all of this, will this do anything to any hardware sales, anywhere?

...and if so, Nintendomination. Is PSP getting pwnd regular in Japan again?

 

This won't sell any hardware; Pokemon fans bought their DS a long time ago.

 

63000 DS units were sold last week and 49000 DS units were sold in the previous week(Famitsu numbers). So there was an increase in hardware sold.

I guess I should have qualified; to me 14k added to an install base of 80mil is nothing.

 

Expect to see a greater long term increase. By your logic Monster Hunter will never sell any more PSPs either because all Monster Hunter fans bought their PSPs a long time ago. You're just trying to mitigate this DS success by any means possible, damage control at its finest.

Also, how does comparing an increase in Japanese sales to the World Wide total show anything?
