Ownage – One in every five Japanese folks own a DS

With all the hardware sales reports we’ve gotten from Enterbrain and Media Create, it’s a pretty well-known fact that the DS has sold very well in Japan. But it takes a simple pic from Nintendo to really rub it in and make us see the bigger picture – one in every five Japanese folks now own a Nintendo DS. Talk about ownage.

This neat little chart was just handed out by Nintendo, and it shows how much of each country’s population has a DS. The number, of course, is based on sales, which would most likely overlook minor factors, such as DS homebrew devs who own five DS’ to tinker with haha, I jest. Still, it can’t be denied that those are impressive numbers.

With Kingdom Hearts and the new Pokemon remakes coming, the number’s on its way up. I wonder what the ratio is for Monster Hunter owners?
