Well I know at least 25 people who own a DS, and I have not heard any one of them complain about lack of good games. Most of them are too busy trying to play the ones from 2005 still, let alone the new ones from 2006. You make it sound like everyone in the world puts in 100 hours a week playing video games. I have no idea if PSP is any good though as I know no one with one and I've never picked one up before, but you are right the DS is selling alot by name alone, but so is the PSP. You see there are alot of bad rated games, and games you would never think to play but a Nintendo hand held is aimed at smaller children that do not need a triple a game to have fun. Enough of that, this is a thread about PS3 predictions. I have friends who are just now buying the PS2, and if you look at sales I believe you can link this to the overall trend. It shows that even though the PS3 is out now, its predecessor the PS2 is still very popular. I believe this will negatively affect the overall sales for at least the next 2 years minimum. For this reason I am going to say that the PS3 will only sell 4-5 Million worldwide in 2007, and 5-6 Million in 2008 for a total of 9-11 Million by the end of 2008. I know this sounds like a small amount but unless there is a price drop I just do no see anyone buying one anytime soon, and why should they really. The PS2 has an extremely large catalog, and the graphics are still very good. Many people that I've talked to see no reason to leave the last generation just yet and I don't blame them.
