What also needs to be pointed out is the exact level of pwnage that the DS Lite enjoys in Japan as regards hardware sales.

It didn't just outsell everything else hardware-wise last week, it sold over 2.7 times as many pieces of hardware than everything else combined! Six weeks ago it sold 3.7 times as many units as everything else combined.

And by "everything else combined" what I mean is Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Advance SP, Game Boy Micro, GameCube, Nintendo DS (phat), PlayStation 2, PSP, Xbox and Xbox 360. Those are the other hardware platforms that Media Create tracks the sales of.

In fact, if you want a laugh at Microsoft's expense, the DS Lite sold more hardware units last week than Microsoft has managed to sell, Xbox and 360, since the DS phat launched 91 weeks ago! And the DS Lite does this almost every week.
