"But it's the Nintendo DS that set the bar highest, as no video game platform has ever sold more than 3 million units in one month, breaking the PlayStation 2s record of 2.7 million in December of 2002. Total Nintendo hardware sales were over 5.19 million for the month." - Kotaku

I still remember looking at this ugly thing,

Thinking that Nintendo had lost their minds. A palm pilot Iwata, really? I use that at work!

These days, I play DS more than any other platform, and I buy them for people as birthday presents. No matter what type of gamer you are, what mood you're in, or what sub-genre you love, it's on DS: The PS2 of handhelds.

If you still haven't bought one, you need to read this thread:

My brother and college buddies said this was going to be another virtual boy. They ate their words.

A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Weak, both for piracy, and your way of pirating!
