  Yeah, that sounds like it should be a PSP figure instead of a DS figure.

    Even in the PSP, not more than 15 - 20 percent of PSP owners know about anything to do with homebrew or custom firmware.

  I don't believe it. I wouldn't even believe it if it was 90% of DS owners, let alone games.

    No. It doesn't. See, sales calculated by the games and systems that are bought.

  Honestly, that seems a bit high. I think they're trying to use the 'shock value' with this, but at the same time, they're over exaggerating it.

  The keyword is "up to".
  
  But yeah, the R4 is in the definite minority, although its a growing one.
  
  However, sales for the DS hardware and software are still through the roof.
  
  And remember kiddies, only use your R4s for homebrew.

  This is rubbish. I guess 90% don't know how to play pirated games or have ever heard of "R4".

  90%? That's ridiculous. Especially considering that a large amount of casual gamers own a DS.

  WAY TO GO FAGGOT. You just helped get even MORE word out about how to pirate DS games.
  
  the number is NOWHERE NEAR 90%. maybe 9%. the main demographic for the DS is younger kids, and kids these days are spoiled, and stupid. these kids dont even need to download their music illegally, let alone game software.
  
  and i've said it before but i'll say it again: people who are downloading games illegally are the same people who where never going to pay for it to begin with - they are BARELY hurting sales.
  
  for the record, i like to have a reason to travel to the game store and socialize with my peoples i buy games when i can afford them.

      seriously stop trying to be the internet police.
      
      how many people who knew nothing about this are going to look up what the R4 cart is after reading that, and find out you can never have to pay for a DS game again for less than 50$? then how many people are going to buy it?

  The ELSPA is now back tracking on the story claiming it was blown out of context. Figures given that they are a european ratings and software board trying to cite figures in a country out of their boundaries at that point.
