Sales charts?  DS software has already bottomed out in Europe, there's articles everywhere in the press about flashcard (or Magicons in Japan)... I don't think you're really aware of how prevalent DS piracy really is.  It's everywhere, and reminds me a lot of the late term PS1 era (where *everyone* I knew had a modded PSX... me included. :x).  Actually, it's getting pretty bad for Wii too... the only easily pirated system that seems at all insulated is 360, probably thanks to fear of XBL banning.

And the point with emulation, it shows that DS piracy is even easier and less costly than PSP piracy.  You literally don't need any "external parts", not an R4, not a PSP, just your PC.

And when I was talking "teens" I was thinking mainly Japan, sorry I should've made that clear.  There it's (generally) teens have PSP, kids have DS.  In the west, it's more like kids have DS, no one has PSP (lol).

DS software has gone down but it is still great compared to PSP

again you don't understand what the other person is saying

piracy is over at the DS too,but on PSP is even more

 

and those news about R4 cards,yeah it is there but it is banned at other places too,what about PSP now you can't ban the internet can you to download games?

if you had a a modded PS1 and everyone around you had one then you are that kind of person and you will have that kind of friends

i don't have a single person who  has a modded console so just coming out and people around you modded doesn't mean everybody did

like if you go to an rural country,its normal for everybody to have modded consoles but that doesn't mean it happens everywhere in the world

 

the 360 can still be accessed online with a modded 360 so xbl banning is not the reason

the reason it still sells software is that alot of its userbase is in the NA and UK where they take action against it and people got money to buy games

 

again you are trying to prove your point by emulation and without external parts,you just can't debate the right way

emulation on another device is nowhere near the piracy on the device itself

i would play Starcraft on PC not Nintendodogs

i know you will go about it too but learn to leave a debate to rest.
