Did the DS not hit the thirty million milestone on the same week?
Roughly 1 in 4 people owning a DS (not quite, but I doubt multi-ownership is a huge factor) is very impressive. 1 in 12 owning a Wii, not so impressive, though it probably looks better in terms of 'households'. |
You doubt muti-owner ship is a big factor ??
Comeon look at the people here, some have 3-4 DS or even more. And I bet that most people have 2. A DS and DSi, we had so many iterations of the DS and probably everyone who has bought the first one bought another one they improved quite a bit.
Most people will have 2 maybe one is broken or outdated, especially in Japan this plays a role. Infact everyone I know who has a DS has atleast 2.
Some might have just one but some other have probably 3 or more. I think at best its 18 Million different people which own a DS. That would be 1/6 of the population and is pretty realistic.
It would be a good poll: How many DS do you own. Maybe I am wrong but what experienced is that multi-ownership is a giant factor especially with the DS and its many good improvments over the time. I havent seen the first DS for a long time.

Most people have two..? Show some statistics if you are to make a point, please don't use anecdotal evidence. Even a poll on this site wouldn't be very useful, it's a self selected group of enthusiasts, self-selecting to post in the poll.

So why do you assume that multi-owner ship plays no a role ? I have atleast anecdotal evidence and I said I could be wrong. But you just think it doesnt play a role. Your point is as strong or weak as mine.

Most people I know who have the systems have had multiple DSes (Lite/i upgrade!), multiple PSPs (2000/3000 upgrade!), multiple 360s (RROD!) and multiple PS3s (YLOD! slim upgrade!). Strangely though, they've almost all only had one Wii.
