Im not worried about the PS3, i agree with Silver here.
I'm not surprised with the DS and it selling like crazy. There are many quality, fun games for it.
And dang, why'd they have to sell the PS3 at high prices.. I'm not getting one.. Wish I could though..
I've been trying to get my hands on a black DS lite, but to no avail. ._.
