I guess the better question is re-asking what your referring to.
The PSP-2k changed the face of the console wars when it launched. It allowed the PSP to go from 30,000/wk every single week, to above 50,000 for nearly a year, and gave Sony their best year since it launched in Japan (US/PAL? Not so much).
I would predict that the PSP-3k will allow the PSP to sell over 50,000 every week until the EOY, and allow for decent sales through next year: Not as much as this year's magnificent cume, but far better than previous years.
The PSP will still have games to give it major boosts: I doubt many people looked at MHP2G and thought "Oh! A remake will move hundreds of thousands of PSPs!" but it did.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
