Wow 3 million nintendophiliaks.
Yep. 3 million pre-orders. That's not even the units that have been sold directly over the counter, because most retail outlets like EB and Gamestop sold out of their pre-order stock within 24 hours of opening the order channels. In Japan, Nintendo has had to contract a third manufacturing plant to start cranking out DS units because they can't keep up with consumer demand.

The game lineup is just like it was for GAMEBOY. And Gameboy advance, and Gameboy SP, and it just keeps going and going and going.
Funny, I don't recall seeing 3D, touchscreen-based Mario or Metroid games on the Gameboy Advance at any point. I must be going crazy. However, I have already seen all of the ports and rehashes that Sony is using to launch their handheld with.

The touch screen is horrible, and you have to use that stupid ass pen if you want any precise shots or pushes, and holding a pen and controlling everything else with your other hand gets old and pissy.
No you don't. You can use your bare thumb or the thumb-strap included with the system. Actually, using either is far more accurate than using the stylus, and it allows you to hold the system with both hands. Nice try, moron. It's not Nintendo's fault that you suck at something as simple as touching a screen with your finger.

The DS is a bust.
Yep. 3 million pre-orders = "bust".

Yes Raziel, I believe you have SPS......
I've got a GBA SP and a Nintendo DS. The tiny dick is all yours, buddy. Remember, you are the one who went and digged up a month-dead PSP thread to flame the DS. I'm just laughing at your pathetic attempts to justify it.
