Nintendo sells over 2 mln 'DS Lite' game consoles in S. Korea
SEOUL, Feb. 3 (Yonhap) -- Japanese game console giant Nintendo Co. has sold more than 2 million units of its "DS Lite" portable gaming device in South Korea, its local unit said Tuesday.
Launched two years ago along with Nintendo's official operations in Korea, the DS
Lite has appealed to a wide range of gamers in South Korea, especially men and
women in their 20s and 30s.
The product's allure to a wide consumer base helped it hit the sales milestone in
such a short period of time, Nintendo Korea said in a press release.
The palm-sized device is regarded by many local tech experts as a noteworthy
success in South Korea, where on-line computer games are generally more popular
than console gaming -- a market dominated here by Sony and Microsoft.
