What I dont get is the DS??? I mean seriously are people over thre/here buying them just to say , i have 2??

 

US DS sales weekly are these days somewhat higher then in Japan, so is the WII. Difference is, the 360 sells like crap in Japan and the PS2 sales are much higher in the US. And for the record.... I've got 2 :P A regular red one as Japanese dictionary, there's great DS software for that in Japan. Got that on your DS say goodbye to you paper dictionaries. And a pink DS lite for gaming of course.

Keep in mind the US has like 2.5 times the people Japan does. Per capita no market comes close to Japan for both DS and Wii sales. What the DS is doing in Japan would be the equivelent of it doing like 1.5 million a month in the US.
