<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>If Nintendo had a stronger opening lineup you wouldn't have people buying as many PSPs, as it is now, Sony is only 38k behind the leading handheld developer. You gotta walk before you can run, and they're not that far behind.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You obviously misread that post. Dec 6-12 was the SECOND week for the DS and the first for the PSP (I believe it launched on the 12th) and those figures are that week's sales only. That means the DS in it's second week outsold the PSP launch. DS sold about 486k in Japan in it's first week</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>I think the 486k figure should have been posted in the first place. Not everybody stares at Nintendo's sales figures all day.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm mean dude you post is like "I never thought this would happen" so OBVIOUSLY I assmued you were shocked Sony wasn't that far behind. Like Sine said, I don't follow weekly sales.</div>
