I don't see anything that's going to change the situation either. http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/Various/PSP+Slim+&+Lite/news.asp?c=10822 A total of 4.1 million PSP games were sold in 2008, compared to 5.6 million during 2007; a decline of 27 per cent. Indeed, the value of those sales dropped slightly more, from £111 million in 2007 to £70 million in 2008; down a rather staggering 36 per cent. A total of 19.1 million DS games were sold in 2008, up 28 per cent on 2007's total. In terms of revenue, in 2008 the DS software market was worth £366 million, up 17 per cent compared to 2007. |
Thanks, I'll add the PSP figures to the UK 2008 annual sales thread. Someone mentioned PS2 decline, does anyone have the numbers for that? I'm missing PS2 and PC data.
