| Soundwave said: GBA kinda got screwed if you think about it. It really should be the second highest selling Nintendo system of all time after the DS. 82 million LTD, but that would be more like 110+ million had it not been prematurely cut off. |
What...
So oversimpled conclusion...
DS replaced it its 4th year... Software-wise GBA was receiving big games until late 2006!
DS lite killed GBA in 2007 ( albeit it still sold 2m then, you have a somewhat wrong notion about how much fast gba sold the 82m ) , GBA sales were affected by fat ds only in Japan ( as it usually happens with consoles that being succedeed there, unlike the west ), in the west it kept selling very well, outselling fat ds... So stop it! GBA wouldn't pass 100m...
It's selling pace wasn't for 100m, its best fiscal year was 17.5m! 100m+ sellers at their peak year sell 20m+...
If you want add to GBA sales what FAT ds sold in two years 17.5m...
