Congrats on the 10 million DS mark in Japan.

There is other news besides E3 downsizing, and it comes in the form of sales. Nintendo has announced that since DS was released in Japan in December of 2004, sales of DS and DS Lite hardware has surpassed 10 million.

Nintendo claims that this is a new record for sold consoles within a 20 month period.

Sales worldwide also seem to be strong, with DS and DS Lite selling extremely well in most of the western hemisphere and steadily in Europe. This comes only a while after Nintendo announced a large fiscal year profit and they expect to continue this trend for several months.
