Lol we all know PS2 is heavily undertracked at VGC, DS won't be king this year.

I've been here for years and never thought PS2 was undertracked.

Handhelds are much more accessible than consoles though, because you don't need a TV and all that.

Above: Best Wii game since Brawl.

I would think this was an amzing accomplishment but the fact the DS is a hand-held and the ps2 was a home console, my amazinment is slightly reduced :P

People with this stupid argument again....

Many people bought 2, 3,4, even 5 PS2s, and before DS, no handheld sold close to those numbers, actually, apart from Nintendo brands (and PSP) handhelds have been pretty much dead.

@Carl, knowing the DS, the "9 million gap" will be reduced to 2 million by end of 2010

It's not a stupid argument.

Definition of console : an electronic device used in playing computer games on the screen of a television to which it is connected

That doesn't take away from DS sales, but the it's never going to be the best selling gaming console because it isn't a console...

PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

So when I hook up my 360 to a monitor instead, it's no longer a console?

Certinaly, I easily predicted they'de come out with these excuses, how about if we say DS and PS2 are both gaming HW and DS is about to be the best selling gaming HW ever?
