According to VGChartz the Nintendo DS is only a couple of days away to overtakes the PS2 lifetime sales:

PS2 = 138,255,449

DS = 137,418,885

And the best thing is it only took 6 years to accomplish that feat. It seems the new king of hardware set the bar very high for a new record. Can the 3DS or any other upcoming consoles be able to do better?  We'll see but now it's time to celebrate!

its no suprise the ds the way its marketed and its price, although it is a console its not a home console its a handheld,, its a completley different userbase to the ps2 or any other home console

Well if you read the title of this thread it is clearly indicated ''console'' not ''home console'' and the DS is clearly a video game console, a portable one to be more accurate. I kind of agree the userbase is different too but people can also claim the Wii userbase is also different from the HD consoles userbase or the PSP userbase is different from the DS userbase so in the end we would have no point of comparison for any consoles.

But as far as video game consoles sales goes at large, the DS is on the verge to take the crown. Well with last week BF sales it is probably already done.
