The population of Japan was bound to catch up with it, it has much, much more room for growth in america than it does in Japan. In Japan even if they come up with a new model, price drop, release DQ it isn't going to increase sales that much (most of the increase would be artificial, IE people are buying second DS).

True indeed. Given that the DS is at 22.77m and that the Japanese population is around 127m (wikipedia), that would give the DS an attach rate of 5.5 % in Japan. That's a lot, needless to say. Naturally, a lot of those are double sales and some of them are probably re-purchases. Still, around 1 in 20 Japanese own a DS!


Lol!!!... 5%?!~... It's more like 17-18%.

I'm guessing Others will end up with the highest amount of total DS sales, then US, followed by Japan...

Oops. You are naturally right. That was one in 5.5, not 5.5%

My bad. *ashamed*

Look at Europe, easily most DS's sold there, and it will probably also turn into PSP's strongest market. It's already also PS3's strongest market.

I think the DS hitting 75 million in a few months will be the bigger announcement, but it was funny to notice the US/JAP sales were exactly the same. US is probably passing it next week though. The DS in Japan has hit its saturation point. Only thing that can shake it a little is Dragon Quest.
