The PSP should be viewed as a failure simply because it clearly didn't meet Sony's own expectations in the portable system. For those who think the 33 % marketshare (if we neglect GBA sales in the timeframe since DS and PSP launched) of the PSP is a success, because it took away from Nintendo's dominance, there are two good reasons standing against this: First, this percentage will shrink over the course of the next few years and will be most likely around 20 % at the end. Second, it doesn't really bother Nintendo if Sony took some marketshare because the overall handheld market sales are most likely at least doubling the GBA sales of 76 million units. The PSP isn't really taking away any revenue or profits from Nintendo's handheld business.

I would have a DS if I didn't have a PSP. I doubt I'm alone. I don't think Sony views it as a failure. It's about to get a huge sales boost with the new version. |
you really think that the psp is going to get a HUGE sales boost? i honestly doubt it will even make a dint on the charts, maybe an extra 50k for a couple of weeks but thats about it
