I can't wait until DQIX releases in Japan. :)

US: The DS has not peaked yet by any means. It's showing similar penetration to the non gamer market and women as has been seen in Japan, but it's about a year behind Japan in doing that. I think 2007 holiday season the DS will set records. The way things are going I don't think the price drops to $100 until 2008 sometime, and that psychologically satisfying price will give it it's peak sales. 500k plus average for non holiday months, 1.5 million for Novembers, 3 million for Decembers; that's a 10 million a year potential. End tally, including Canadian numbers, 40-50 million.

DS is already doing 500K a month in NA. Add up US and Canada numbers, and its hit the mark 3 months straight. I think it can get higher than that. I think it can do 2 million units every quarter, and 6 million the Xmas quarter when it peaks.

Heh, I remember back in like 2004 when the PSP was announced and everyone said it would kill Nintendo. Granted the PSP did pretty good, 20mil isn't half bad. But still, the DS sales? Brings a smile to my face everytime. :)
