Sorry, I'll go review my work. Thanks!

I was finding record for the DS being
NDS:52.78M
I based it on https://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41637/USA/
Any weekly video game chart after Dec 28th 2013 doesn't have any DS hardware numbers. But the DS would sell until May 20th 2014 so I trust 57.92M

Here you can see the list:

https://www.vgchartz.com/charts/platform_totals/Hardware.php/?sort=NA

DS: 57.92M

PS2: 53.65M

NSW: 47.26M

NSW still has a long way to reach the PS2 ..

And as @trunkswd noted, the DS is over 53M in US, therefore PS2 must be somewhere around 50M. NSW is at 43M in US. So still 7M to go ..

The weekly charts for VGChartz are out of date it is better to use the hardware tool: https://www.vgchartz.com/tools/hw_date.php

VGChartz current estimates put the DS in the USA at 53.8m by the end of 2013. The DS only shipped 0.04m units after December 31st 2013 so 53.8m can be taken as the lifetime sales estimate.

57.92m is the sales in NA, which includes Canada. It is not just USA.

Americas (North & South America) - 59.93m (Nintendo figures as of March 31st 2014)
North America - 57.92m (VGChartz Estimate)
USA - 53.8m (VGChartz estimate)

I originally did base it off of the hardware tool, but noticed it said NA and not USA after, so thank you for correcting me. Thanks Zippy!
Also, sorry for writing 57.92 I meant 53.5 from your post earlier.
Trunks was awesome to provide the numbers as well. I appreciate the work that is put through this.

I noticed they were out of date since they didn't go past Dec 28th 2018, but that was the only VGChartz site that I could find that had USA only data for consoles older than April 2015.

Thank you Trunks!
NDS:53.31M
PS2:47.6M
Switch:42.96M
Xbox 360:42.73M
