Can't be long now until it's officially the best selling console of all time.

When the next Shipment numbers come in?

Sometime soon, that's for sure.


It will outsell the PS2 worldwide before the end of the year, that's for sure. The Wii will be next in line.

Well the PS2 is not even a console to start with, everyone knows that home consoles don't count as real consoles. Handhelds do.

So DS is the best selling for quite some time now.



When did handhelds become  consoles?

Because they are portable consoles haha.  All the systems are consoles, just some are handheld/portable consoles and the others are home consoles.  Consoles nonetheless.  Guess we shouldn't even make the distinction between systems and consoles as it means essentially the same thing.

Yeah, just say handhelds vs. home consoles, slight change in wording but the thing that everyone really means when they say this makes more sense.

Excellent work DS, congratulations Nintendo. The DS thorughly deserves it, I hope it is able to retain it's crown for a long time to come. Hopefully that useless 3DS won't overtake it.

In the US, Wii's definitely going to outsell PS2.  Launch aligned it's already more than a year ahead sales wise, even if it drops off significantly it'll likely leg past PS2 lifetime.
