Well,I live in Israel,so far I've never seen anyone with a DS.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in my city,but if not than there isn't more than 10 DS players.

That's quite depressing.

I am from Singapore and its a PSP dominated city.

In fact, the only DS users I have met are those whom I have arranged to meet beforehand online and a few of my friends who have been influenced by me to get one. I have not seen a single DS user in the schools I have attended, on the subway or in the buses yet.

Around Manila, the PSP reigns supreme. The DS is also on shelves everywhere, but it's more of an item for les bourgeoisies (i.e. rich spoiled kiddies). Ironic given the price difference, no?

In my town, DSs seem to be really popular. I see more people with DSs than PSPs.

i am living in kuala lumpur and i hardly see anyone with ds lites around, when i do its normally little boys and girls and old folks alike. from what i have seen only teenage boys here have the mentality that graphics trumps gameplay; case in point- there are way more psp gamers here than ds gamers. another thing though, havent seen a female psp gamer just yet which is kinda weird. i myself and a few other dudes, although i am sure they are more of them, agree that the ds is getting more popular by the day in this great but hot city!

I know4 people who have DSs here. 3 of them work here in Cubeville with me. The other one is my girlfriend. Considering all the people here that I see on a daily basis, that doesn't bode well.

What I find interesting is how Nintendo is taking over UK (and Europe for the matter), while looking back in the Gamecube days it was really deemed as insignificant. The DS initially did well over here, had a bit of a rough patch, but as soon as the big guns were released in 2006 (Animal Crossing, New Mario Bros and definitely Brain Training) everything just boomed!

So now, basically everyone I know has a DS Lite. If you look at the UK charts now, the top 40 is pretty much Nintendo oriented, which just shows how successful their marketing is at the moment.

And I thought that new sealand was the onyl place where PSP was bigger then the DS (it was on the news the other day). In my country (holland) the DS isn't big but the PSP is even smaller. Public gaming isn't done often (except in trains) and there aren't any wifi areas either.

yeah so i live in the Philippines a 3rd world country so...

Funny i am the ONLY ONE that i know that has a DS in my entire school(UST)

Feels like I'm carrying a bomb or something and everyone seems to look at me and say in their mind "look at that guy and what is that thing he is carrying?"

but hey one of my friends bought one and he will get it in July and that would be the first time i will experience local wireless gaming

This to those people at my school that has a psp and doesn't even know anything about the Nintendo DS

"I play games and not just by watching pretty graphics unless its DOA"

Just this morning some guy playing with his psp saw me while playing my Nintendo DS, a few minutes later a friend of the guy with psp saw me and asked his friend what i was playing.

he answered its "its a sega handheld something..."

Sadly Philippines is a horrible place for gamers and so i decided that i will not die here in my country.

lol. I'm a filipino yeah life there kinda suck. still i love my country but most ppl there follow the western trend, what would be popular in the US would become popular them too.

like:

Preppy filipina ( aka Kikay gurl): gosh sis! where did u buy that bag?

Preppy filipina 2: oh this? i got it from my daddy in America, it's IMPORTED!

Preppy filipina: Oh gosh! ur so rich naman ( OMG taglish! tagalog + english)

Preppy Filipina 2: Oh yeah, and next week mom will buy a new cellphone!

and so, posers were born.....

Philippine nightmare part 2.....

Filipino from other country - playing ds

local filipino : 'tol ano yan? ( dude what's that thing)

Filipino from other country - a ds ito ( this is a ds)

local: ang pangit naman, mas maganda psp ( it's so ugly, PSPs are way cooler - yeah yet they can't even afford ps1 or gameboy color)

Filipino from other country - WTF?!

even though some filipinos do s**k, they're so great at DOTA

But still i hate them

so i decided to buy a ds lite, a black one, and beat the crap out of them when i go there in july for vacation

well we cant do anything at all to increase the ds popularity in the philippines since we have a stupid law

advertising games in the philippines is not allowed

i cant really say that i only follow what is popular, my mind was already set and ready for the Nintendo ds even before it was released.
