Want more proof?
DS sales (VGC), 2 days (or 1?): 25K (on DSi release). DS usually sells 5-7K, so roughly 20K are from DSi.
DS sales (VGC), 3 days (or 2): 10K (on DSl release). Around 3K were usually sold, so around 7K are from DSl.

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS
Whats the fuss about this thingy called DSI? How does the new DSI make gaming better???
Camera, hello no. online, a little bit.
I dont see any major upgrade over DS Lite from a gaming point. People are just buying for the brand name, thats it.
What paper puffy? I can maybe use a scanner
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
No people are buying it because they want the features, they wnat to upgrade and a lot are probably buying for it's potential.
it has double the power as the DS Lite and 4 times the RAM so ... yeh

failed to mention DSiWare and the huge upgrades in processing power and ram
all you ds haters always fail to mention the details that makes the dsi better .
what is it? you guys are afraid of giving nintendo some credit on actually making an upgrade that is more than just upgrading the asthetics?
or is it that you guys pick and choose the upgrades that lean more on the "casual side" to make nintendo sound like less of a threat??
hello how are you.
Well,
I visted the Launch website, and there was nothing about the upgrades which you mentioned, maybe I didnt see it.
Still, I dont think of this as a major upgrade until I see how those changes made games better from a graphics quality and playing aspect.
Then you should have complained about the lack of launch titles and we wouldn't have jumped on you like that.
I agree with that but guess what? People are going to continue buying the DS and these people would probably prefer to pay a little bit extra to have the newest version rather than the older version and that's what's really driving the sales atm.
Can't find anything online in either the Age, Herald/News.com.au or The Australian.
