PSP should perform well in Japan in 2009 although I would expect a decline from 2008.
With the release of DQIX in March, DSi would gain more momentum and start pulling away from P2P. Also, there is no MH2G level games to help move the hardware. Final Fantasy Agito XIII would help but there is no release date for it yet. Even if it ends up released in 2009, it would be at the end of the year and too late to make any significant impact on PSP sales.
As for sales in NA and EU, don't think it would change much either. Japan would remain by far the best performing region for PSP.
MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
