iDS is the only official gaming hardware that sold and approved in China and their population are huge. Who knows, maybe DS is still undertracked, the guy that leaked the 3DS has 4 DSes.

Do we have any electronic device that sell more than that?

Sadly, this hapened around 4 weeks ago, so isn't really "breaking"

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

It's still quite breaking. Think about it this way. DS has become the most selling piece of gaming hardware in human history despite late reporting.

Well...VGChartz doesn't track the PS2 well, I believe Sony released a press release saying it was over 150 mil, so it hasn't happened yet.

So yeah, your news is so breaking it hasn't yet happened

It will happen sometime late 2011 but didn't happen yet.

PS2 sold more than 150m... ioi said before VGC has it undertracked (because is harder to track PS2).

I just couldn't any official press from Sony apart from fansites.

the ps2 numbers come from suming up the quarterly shippment numbers. so far ps2 is still leading but ds should overtake it this year for sure...probably only a few months away since the DS outsells the ps2 by a good margin.
