Forums - Sales Discussion - What region will the DS overtake PS2 in next?

It's already happened in Japan, but I want to get your thoughts on this. And if you're using a country from Europe/Other, specify the country if possible.

 

I'm thinking France.

 

By the way, this is in terms of hardware.



Around the Network

France is quite close, followed by Germany and Australia. I suspect that the DS will overtake the PS2 in that nebulous 'Other' region by 2010, especially if the DSi is counted as another DS.

Honestly, though, I don't think the DS will ever overtake the PS2 in the US. There's too much concern in that region over the DS being ZOMGKIDDY.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Most likely EU, I'm of the feeling that DSi was intended for EU growth spur vs Japan, however when it comes to what most Japanese do versus what most EU do when it comes to daily social routines seem similar enough that the additions could be the suppliment needed for both.

But as it applies to your questions... EU. ^_^
