first of all, anyone who thinks it is fair to compare these two media mediums (alliteration is always fun) is probably an alcoholic. i will use analogies to show how it is unfair to compare home consoles to handhelds. would anyone here agree its fair to mp3 players or ipods to home stereo systems? i think not. how bout portable dvd players to home dvd players or same for blu ray players (not completely sure if they have portable blu ray players yet, but i cant see why not)? one last analogy, compare an ipad or xoom to a custom built, high-powered desktop pc. i think you all know where i am going with this. through these analogies, one can easily see how saying the nintendo ds is a better selling console than the ps2 is not only misleading, but completely unjustified. they are two completely different ways of playing games but are both great in their own right.
