True it does, but I was just mearly making a point. You can't say GT PSP bombed if you don't say Mario Kart DS bombed.

Although considering GT5 sales are still in it's infancy, no, I don't consider it a bomb.

Uh, yes you can.  Mario Kart DS far outsold every previous Mario Kart, it was an unheralded success by series standards.  GT PSP far undersold every previous GT, it was an unheralded failure by series standards.  Your point literally has zero merit.

I wouldn't consider GT5 a bomb either fwiw.

Considering DS seems to be on track on outselling every nintendo home console that isn't wii combined, no wonder it sold more.

Considering PSP looks like it could become the worst selling Sony console (if the successor comes out this year) plus the fact that it is a handheld (which gives it absolutely no chance unless it is in DS's position, which it would half to have over 250 million consoles to do so) no wonder it sold less.

Still doesn't change that Mario Kart DS is a bomb compared to console versions, as is the same for GT PSP.


lol, no it's not at all "the same" by any stretch... chiefly because Mario Kart DS far outsold every previous console version of the series.  This isn't rocket science here, I'm not sure why you can't seem to grasp "by series standards" and "ratio arguments inherently favor smaller bases"?
