Psp Sales are not bad at all about 50 Million...While not as good as the DS they have put a dent on their sells and has become a competitor for Nintendo... After all these years Nintendo finally has competition in the handheld market... The Ps3 is doing just fine at the price it is...I think Sony rather come in 3rd place than start losing major amounts of money if they drop the price to $300...it is only being outsold by the way cheaper 360 by 50000 units a week...If they do decide to drop the price that number will decrease if not dissapear in total |
People often make these statements, I wonder about it. Do people think the DS would be at 37mil in Japan if the PSP never came out? Perhaps it would have sold lots more, it's hard to tell. However, the DS is soon going to be the best selling system ever, completely demolishing their previous handheld (GBA), and outpacing even the PS2 by quite a bit. It's hard to imagine the thing selling that much more - I think claims of the PSP hurting the DS only compliments Nintendo even further...
OT: Sony is in no position to gun for first place - nobody is catching Nintendo, it's pointless to try. To "win" they need to focus on making as much money as they can this gen, so they can release another console. Massive pricecuts would be working against this.
