DS in its 5th week in EMEAA

PS2	134,760	(-1%)	32,398,097
DS	49,520	(-10%)	647,965
GBA	24,130	(-11%)	17,265,751
XB	16,217	(-4%)	6,696,672
GC	9,084	(-3%)	4,192,522

See? DS with better software overall and without competition was doing worse.

It had a different brand from GBA, it was marketed better than 3DS and it was sold at a smaller price. And was being outsold 2:1 by a 5 year old console.

The expectation of Nintendo and, generally, people were too high, it's doing fine from the beginning to now.

but at least the ds outsold the gba

seeing the 3ds below the ds is quite worrying imo
