One of the strongest brands and you're questioning who buys it? Classic. Hell, if I had time, I'd buy them. Great experience and concept.

On the real, that picture of Sony missing the bar is priceless. Only thing that I will say in their defense is that they have to get the ball rolling. Since they have a solid mindset to stay with the PS3 just as they did with the PS2, it looks like it could be a great investment. We'll just have to wait and see how they look by the end of the year after they drop their price. Hell, if I have the money I'd pick one up a few months down the road. Look at those numbers.......

If you have young kids and a limited budget that would be a good choice for a first console for them.

I have every intention of taking my first paycheck and purchasing a DS Lite and a copy of Pokemon Diamond or Pearl.

Didn't someone say the 360 was going to sell 10 million systems this year? It hasn't even sold 1 million in the first 4 months!

I think that was the projected install base from the time it was launched.

Either way, Nintendo is owning everyone.
