  • Anyone think the DS version of Pokemon will break 1,000,000? I do--it's has insane legs so far. Also, Bandai has officially shipped 1,000,000 Tamagotchi games across JApan--a first since DBZ2 on the SNES.

  • Too bad for DS. It would've pwned PSP.

  • Don't speak as if the fight is over, onthealmond. For it has just begun! Mwhaha!

  • oh noes this is the end of the DS reign! /sarcasm just wait until stock arrives, we'll see a massive rise :)

  • *heart attack* Seriously though, PSP can't say that it sold out, no matter how much it sells. And all but one game is for a Nintendo system. The DS is far from being down and out.

  • The PSP sold about 15'000 units more than the week before: seems that the DS shortages don't gave a huge boost to the PSP sales. More ironically, the Nintendo DS is dominating in the software sales and PSP software is absent in the top ten.

    Olpus Bonzo, 30-11--0001 at 00:00
  • The PSP is a rip off of the GBA/DS.

    sawyer, 30-11--0001 at 00:00
  • Oh, yeah, thank you fanboyism for your existance!

    Olpus Bonzo, 30-11--0001 at 00:00
  • I actually saw the top 30 rather than 10, adn there was like...2 PSP games lol

  • nintendo has the lead so far, even if this week wasn't so good, its becouse they were sold out, and look at all the games, most of them are ds games,soon, nintendo shal defeat sony on the handheld war!

    fg-54, 30-11--0001 at 00:00
  • Nintendo today dropped the DS price from 30'000 yen to 15'000 yen! Another sales boost?
