Game Boy Advance ousells PS3 by a couple thousand in April
thats right every handheld and console this generation and last is outselling the PS3 except the gamecube (which production was halted on by NOA earlier this year)
panic time, sony?
Its funny because the GBA is pretty lame by current standards. I never even bought one.
I didn't even know they were still making GBA's LOL, I bet most of the sales were Pokemon Emerald, and such.

But there is an option for the SP over that. But it's pretty funny and kinf of sad.
panic time, sony?
No, i think its more like Panic button! lol
Hell yeah GBA is FTW i still have one and i love it!!!!
I haven't played my GBA in a while, since I'm playing more DS. However, I agree: GBA FTW.
When they say "GBA" do they mean the original GBA or GBA plus all it's redesigns? (You know, like the SP & Micro)
Perhaps I read the chart wrong, but I didn't think a 2000 unit difference between GBA and PS3 would be crushing. I guess if we wanna go by that logic, then I guess the PSP outselling the Xbox 360 by 9000 units would be an act of God
Take cover quick Microsoft...
Its not crushing. But its still amusing to see a last gen, outdated GBA outsell the brand new, overpriced PS3.
It'll change in a month or so, because its clear the gap isn't very big.

yeah, i guess there is a morale victory there for sony, having only been outsold by 2000 units by a handheld game 10 years old...
2,000 units isn't that much. Plus, GBA's will be moving off shelves to sell more Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/FireRed/LeafGreen.
Don't say its not true, because those games are used to guarantee you get certain Pokemon in Diamond and Pearl.
IMO, i doesnt really matter why, it only matters that the GBA is outselling the PS3, which is the point of the post

agreed Pokemon could sell a turd if you played the game with one.
For some reason I have a hard time believing that. I mean, the PS3 sucks, but does it suck that much? Maybe it does. o.O GBA FTW.

Nah I'd say a previous generation handheld outselling a next-generation console by 2000 is crushing in my book.
that's cause GBA is FTW
yes im a noob. what is FTW?
