I don't think the DS will outsell the 3DS this year, mainly because Nintendo is saying there won't be shortages of the 3DS. The lead of the DS over the 3DS will be a little less than 2 million when the 3DS launches in the West. I think the first two full weeks in the West will cut that lead down to 1 million. Without significant shortages I can't see the DS being able to hold on to such a small lead for the rest of the year. Maybe if there are major 3DS shortages during the holidays, and Nintendo does a new price cut and bundles of the DS, then it may be able to reclaim the lead.
Either way I'm excited about there being a new console to follow the sales of.
