The 3DS should be compared to the PSP or the Vita, not consoles. Consoles should be compared to one another. The Gameboy has always outsold the typical Nintendo console, so really this isnt about who is better, but it just makes no sense to me because I dont see how it affects the other in a way worth expressing.

The point is that they both are being sold as consoles and are both being sold in the gaming franchise. They can and will be compared. Just like when the DS and PS2 were compared. 

In history no one will care whether the PS2 put up a fight against the DS. They will only care how they did against their direct competition in the Gamecube and Xbox. This is exactly why the PSP was created, much like the Game Gear...to go up again Nintendos dominant handheld and replicate the profit.

Yes, but this isn't history, this is VGChartz, where the entire point of the site is to masturbate to numbers.

... PS2 155 million > DS 153.87 million
