I don't know where I've read that holiday craziness in Japan starts at the end of December. Was it here? Not sure.

What amuses me is that people still doubts about the DS beating the PS2 as the best selling console.

I have absolutely no doubts that the DS will outsell the PS2.  It's pretty much a given.   However, I put them in the apples and oranges category.  One is a true console, the other is a handheld.   When I think of a console, I think NES, Genesis, PS/1/2/3, GC, Xbox, etc.  When I think of Handhelds I think of the Gameboy, DS, PSP, Lynx, Game Gear, etc.   They are marketed a bit differently as obviously most people don't pack up their console (Wii, PS3, etc) and take it to work, or to play while on a plane or a car trip. 

 So that said, yes, the DS will outsell the PS2, but they are different enough that they aren't in the same category.

My pokemon brings all the nerds to the yard. And they're like, "You wanna trade cards?" Damn right, I wanna trade cards. I'll trade this, but not my charizard.
