Well, it was only a matter of time.

It really was a matter of time, so no surprise here. Given those astronomical monthly figures, DS sales will overtake the number of people on earth.

Looks like it's the end of the GBA, or is it. I hear speculation of a virtual console for the DSi that will let you download GBA and GBA color games. Of course it's still just a thought.
