http://digg.com/gaming_news/Nintendo_DS_sales_hit_50_million_worldwide_fastest_seller_ever Nintendo's DS portable console has hit sales of over 50 million units worldwide in just under 3 years. This makes DS the fastest selling games machine of all time, and with sales set to remain high through the holidays, Nintendo should hit 60 million by the end of December.

Wait, didn't we say this for the Wii as well?

DS still does not have a better game list then the PSP, this is where the DS needs to step it up.

As an owner of both, allow me to say:

ROFL. I can't tell if you were trying ot be funny or not, but man, that's the best joke I have heard in a while.

Don't get me wrong, I love my PSP.  I use it just as much as my DS.  However, that's because I can play roms of all my old games on my PSP.  I own 8 purchased games on my PSP, and I don't hack.  I have purchased 29 games on my DS now.

I know one should not feed the troll, but this is too lolworthy for me not to say:

LOL!

Is allowed in japanese schools

Woah, the PSP is not allowed in japan schools? I didn't knew that  

I want to be part of those 50 millions, but the DS is so expensive here... over $200... kinda the same as the normal PSP.

PS: Why does your dad thinks that way Cadence?

 Maybe he has opinion!



I have heard rumours that Japanese tutors are telling students to get DS for the vast range of educational software available for it, theres already a handful of language trainers, something that the japanese are very keen on. Its not like theyre letting the kids trade pokemon in class.

As far as the PSP having better games, it has better versions of PS2 games and multiformat franchises, but if nobody wants to play those games whats the point. theres far more to a handheld than offering home console games on a small screen.

Sony still dont seem to understand this tho, GoW for example, great home console game, I doubt it will work on handheld.

The PSP has lost all chance of competing now, very few developers are going to choose it over the DS.

50 mill is veruy impressive and the predictions of another 10mill in the next 4 months puts the wii/360 sales in a rather dim light!



Wow, someone says the PSP has better games, and fans turn into idiots...



Both have good games; most PSP games not my cup of tea, though (racing, sports).
