The DS is nowhere near market saturation.

If you say half the people in a family with Ps2 played it, that means you have over 70M potential DS owners in western Europe, and then perhaps 20M in the rest of the world (save for Americas + Japan).

More realistically though, 50M in western Europe. So the possible range for the DS varies from 60-90M I guess (Others).

Milestones:

X360 passes 3M in the United Kingdom! ~ 1/6 families now own it!

Same week last year:

DS: 752k
Wii: 342k
360: 176k
PS3: 277k
PSP: 216k
PS2: 260k

Differences to this year:

DS: +22%
Wii: +86%
360: +93%
PS3: -27%
PSP: -7%
PS2: -44%

The playstation brand is not what it used to be.. Impressive for the Wii and 360 and to a lesser extent, DS for being growing monsters.

Pixel Art can be fun.

This isn't even taking into consideration the fact that the DS will eventually break over time in a lot of cases and simply be replaced by an upgraded model in others.

Pretty much mirrors the american trends, besides the 360 which has seen very small growth in the states.

Current-gen game collection uploaded on the profile, full of win and good games; also most of my PC games. Lucasfilm Games/LucasArts 1982-2008 (Requiescat In Pace).
