Of course it is far far cooler.  I'm pretty sure almost everyone will admit this when the sales explode.  Heck, DS is cooler than any of the other current generation consoles.


You're right, it is much cooler. Until you grow hair on your nuts. Then you pass it off to the closest 6-year old or lose it in the couch somewhere.

 

They sell because they are desired by millions of children with parents who buy them for them. They sell because they are cheap and disposable. If you lose one, you can just go buy another. Most people aren't willing to do that with a home console.

 

Sales don't make it cooler. The game Peg has sold more units worldwide than ANY video game console has. It MUST be cooler. Go play that for a while.


You fail for assuming that the system has only one audience, and ignoring that too many games not meant for children sell big numbers on it. You think a 6 year old wants Brain Age?



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
