| TheSource said: Wii is trending to be a much larger software market than DS, even if you exclude bundled software its ahead by 15% over the same period. So Nintendo cares - they like $$ - and DS is already a 750 million unit * $30 (or so) software market over six years. I'm thinking DS gets to 900m-1.05b games shipped, while Wii gets to 1b to 1.2b games shipped. You can say that PS2 got to 1.55b or so, but Sony never had two sw markets of a billion units each overlapping in the way Nintendo does / has recently. |
It's not like they couldn't have. Are you implying that PS2's sales were so high that a simultaneous handheld couldn't have matched it? Nintendo's handhelds usually dominate, it was just a matter of time until they got the console side on the right track again.
