Well, all handheld gaming consoles are aimed at a younger audience. You really think the Halo Crowd is rocking a PSP?
Yes, the DS has the vast advantage in casual games, but imo, it also has a relative advantage in core games, and shockingly, that is due mostly in part to 1st party Nintendo games or games that didn't sell that well to begin with.
Of course, not selling well on DS is usually a hit on the PSP proportionally, so lets not confuse ourselves. Even if the DS has a smaller core audience proportionally, it is still likely that the core DS audience is larger than the core PSP audience, simply due to the largely disproportional userbase.
That said, I guarntee that kids love 3D, it seems perfect for them, and Sony's statement is pure spin. This is going to sell like crack gone super sayijin, and I highly doubt even Sony would deny that.

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
