The iphone/ ipod touch is destroying the PSP and DS combined in sales, so who knows, maybe gaming will start to really rise on the ipod touch.

Wtf!? No...theyre not.

Its not confirmed yet either. Its still a rumor.

 

The iPhone shipped over 6 million units in Apple's last quarter, which was comparable to what the DS sold in the same period. What isn't known is how many units the iPod Touch sold in the same timeframe, but it isn't too far-fetched to guess that it might be more than the PSP sold.

The userbase is huge and growing faster than either dedicated gaming handheld. What isn't clear is how receptive this userbase is to games from major developers at a premium price. This game will give us a good idea.

I have a workmate who has a iPhone, a DS and a PSP...he doesn't use his iPhone for gaming. It doesn't matter how many units you've shipped or sold, people aren't buying them for gaming. They are getting them Free with an upgraded mobile phone contract and for music.

DS is being bought for one sole reason, to play games.

It will give us a good idea but I don't see it doing well.
