DS Overtakes PSP in UK

[wraggster]

PSP’s impressive start in the handheld market has been soured this week as rival console Nintendo DS began to pull ahead in the race for portable supremacy.
The latest industry estimates suggest that the June 23rd launch of DS Lite, while deemed unspectacular by some at the time, has boosted hardware sales for the year so far ahead of Sony’s PSP.

And Nintendo is eclipsing the competition in the software charts – this week’s biggest selling DS game New Super Mario Bros outsold top PSP title Tomb Raider: Legend by a ratio of over five to one. The Nintendo format also claimed the prize for being the overall top-selling full price console platform this week.

As the summer months shift gamers’ focus toward handhelds, the sector as a whole seems to be gaining strength all the time.

That means more games. Hopefully better ones, too. Though that Code Lyoko game will make my DS bleed if it even goes in the vicinity of the cartridge.

Yeah I bought a Ds lite with Brain Training, Super Mario Bros and Mario Kart. Haven't been able to put it down.

So.....are you saying that that Code Lyoko game is good or bad...?
