The PS2 is still performing very strong for the US and Europe, combine PS2 and PS3 sales and Sony still leads global home console sales. Also according to a recent study by far most gamers still play their games on a PS2 in the US compared to other systems (by far the strongest XBox and XBox 360 market).

So if you combine wii and ds sales, Nintendo is totaly dominating the video games market

Nintendo has entirely dominated the handheld console market for nearly 2 decades, but this has changed a lot since the release of the PSP and to a lesser extend capable smartphones / PDAs. I consider home consoles to be very different though, that's why both Nintendo and Sony both offer handheld gaming solutions next to their home consoles, they serve very different pratical purposes.

So DS selling faster than GBA and controlling almost 70% of the market is somehow not dominating the market?

They aren't the sole player anymore, so their dominance has decreased significantly, consumers now have good alternatives to choose from.
