1 year & 3 months

Is that good?

1.4 mil in anywhere else is horrible.

Hasn't the DS had weeks where it's sold 1.4 mil?

 

Japan population: 127,433,494

Korea, South Population: 49,044,790

Japan PS3 1 year & 6 months = 2.05M

Japan Xbox 360 2 years & 5 months = 0.60M

South Korea is a pure PC dominated country.

Nintendo of Korea is a 'young' company, less than 2 years old!!!M'kay http://www.joystiq.com/2006/07/03/nintendo-of-korea-opens-july-7th/

 

 

This momentum has largely been maintained since then, and Sony has done little to answer it. Ask any retailer at Yongsan, and they'll tell you that for the past six months, sales of DS games have been their biggest source of income. (As Yongsan merchants generally sell hardware for less than its MSRP, all profit is made from other transactions.) On that note, it'll be interesting to see what kind of reception Sony's PSP Slim gets upon its Korean release later this year.

Is is big on console/handheld? Yes

Compare with PC? Hell...No!!

 

 

Why not compare Japanese Sales of DS to Korean Sales of DS? Why use PS3 which is dying in japan, or XBOX 360 which was Dead on arrival?

The DS did 4 mil in Japan in 1 year, and this was Pre-DS lite...

Post DS lite... you already know the story.

Check my new info.......

anything compare to Japan DS is shit, it has the highest number sales and even surpass PS2, almost 1 out of 5 people has a DS!

It is the biggest in Korea, currently it has the highest both HW & SW sales in current gen console/handheld...... so you can know that how shitty others are.....

 

 

 

Some more comparison

Italy only 1.5 million sales with 58,147,733 peoples, already with 3 years & 1 mths, so can you imagine how good DS sales is in a  PC Dominated country???
