There are loads of dif models of alot of consols heck os3 and xbox got that coverd XD but the ps3 had 2 main ones. the basic consol and the slim. ds has had. DS, DS light< DSi, DSXL etc etc all full blown re launches of the DS heaviloy promoted by nintendo. 

Also handheld do in this eara (last 5 years) sell alot more than home consols. Itouch, DS, iPad phones in generaly sell hell loads more than consols. the psp has even sold a shit load and sony havnt exactualy done much on the promotion part of thing in the us and europe in last few years :P

Well, all that is beside the point, as I was merely remarking upon some people's dismay over PS2/DS comparisons. Yes, DS has had revisions. So has PS2, and DS has passed it or will do so very soon in almost half the time. All the while being quite expensive, too.

The PS2 revisions were simply a change of form. The DS versions added new features. Stuff like a bigger screen or a camera can warrant another buy.

Anyways, I'm glad the DS sold but I think it's time for the 3DS now.

Your actually getting a 3DS?

I know it seems odd after all I've said about handhelds but I simply can't resist Paper Mario ;..;


Me neither, it's going to be one of the first game I buy when I get my 3DS and Ocarina of time.  Imagine a Donkey kong country for 3DS? :P

I can only hope. But I'm hoping hard!

I remember at E3 04, just prior to the DS's release, Iwata-san spoke of Nintendo's proudest market achievments including the introduction of the D-pad, analogue stick, etc.  Then he exclaimed, holding up the DS, "But I think we're most proud of this!".  Now with 140m sold and bragging rights as the best selling game system ever, everyone can see why.

Here's to 150m!


then 160M end of 2011!
