I don't even know what a Nintendo DS Lite is. But I still can't believe by how much it is outselling the PSP.

well at least fro MS the sales are picking up for the 360, but they need to be better

Game Boy Micro - 18,390 thats a real surprise to me in the usa they are discontinued at the store i work at.

actually i'm about to get a ds lite because they moved the power button, and it's less clammy.
plus the ds games are kicking sand on the psp games.
but screw the xbox360 i'm waiting for $ony to F*** up the ps3. mainly for metal gear solid 3. plus i've seen too many returns for processor failure with the 360. and the revolution will be, well, a revolution.
very surprising about the gba micro though.
and i wish gamepark would make a mark because the gp2x is nice my friend has one and i might get one for the full speed PS1 emu. seeing metal gear solid work on a portable pisses me off. and i own the PSP. c'mon $ony give the people what they want and they will still pay you. even more money probably.

*New Sony cereal. with free UMD in every box!
too bad those are firmware 3.52 though

[Darksaviour69]

i'm pretty sure the gp2x is not officialy sold in japan, so it can't be includeing in the chart
