Hunter_Alien, you should really try not trolling threads on topics you're not familiar with the game or its franchise that's being discussed. Perhaps you should do a little research on the frey of Zelda and see how things work in Japan. All I see is you trying to kid yourself that having two big selling portable games on the PSP somehow makes up for its embarassing software sales and nothing-to-brag-about game library. It was cute of you to try and come in this thread and act as if you'd stolen the show though, lol, but let's face it with Lair down the gutter and Crisis Core comming out what better time for you Sony fans "on the go" to start fluffing your dreams about the PSP actually making a comeback.

Pity these two "best selling evar" games aren't enough to instill faith in the major third party support outside of those already committed to it (Konami & S-E) and Capcom is just going with the flow in regards to Monster Hunter, they've already announced that they've all but abandoned development for the "dissapointing" PSP. It's not about how much money they make on a game they put on the console, its about how much money they've lost on other titles they've tried to put on the handheld. It's a dead fish. And while you're looking at two games that might sell the best this year on the PSP, I'm sorry to inform you that the DS is still beating the pants off it in over all hardware and software sales, and why is that? Ah yes, game selection. The DS doesn't need blockbuster hits to brag about when it has such number, variety and quality of titles. "Oh wait, did he say quality? But I thought the PSP had more quality?" Well I'm sure you Sony fans are fond of equating "less games to more quality per game", not "less games to a failing system".

The PSP is not winning handheld of the year with these titles, its staving off death and at the very least reminding us all that it still exists. Cant' wait for the PSP2, you know, as a cell phone, always wondered why the PSP wasn't more like the N-Gage, lol.

Might I also remind you that the best selling handheld game this year is on the DS, Pokemon. But that doesn't matter now does it, at least not to someone trying to convince themselves the PSP actually has a future.

 Temper , temper . I know that the PSP didnt do far as well as Sony was expecting , but what can I do , I like the system , shoot me if you want . I know that it has no chance of winning the war , not since March 06 at least . Also I find it ironic that on the handheld front among top 3 of this years seller will be 2 PSP titles . Also , I know that the PSP wont win , but will it come back in a batter way ... Im certain of it . I rarely bealive in miracles , and I know that the PSP will be the last one to get one , but just because a system is not selling as good as its rival , It doesnt means its a flop ( who didnt loved the GC ). And untill there are games that sell well like CC and MHF the PSP will not fall out and not die , like that fish your talking about . And what I meant with Zelda , is that its a shame that Nintendos best is selling this weak in Japan , where less quality titles , like Nintendogs are selling out as soon as they hit shelves . Afther passing 20 million the PSP finally made itself a base , just enough for it to survive , and as some analists , I to bealive that the PSP will reach the 60 million one day . Not good software sales ... maybe , but I dont see game announcements stopping for the PSP . Untill Sonys 1st party , EA and a few others support it , well than its fine for me . And yes I am with the opinion that less but batter . As all as I care I could pick 3 games out of my PSP collection and go away for a month just to play and I would , but the DS has no games that I like . Thats all . There is a thing called taste and everyones is different . I like the PSP you like the DS , thats it , but just because the DS is selling batter I schouldent love it . 

 Spellcheck, Spellcheck. It's not a matter of the PSP not selling as good as its rival, its a matter that the PSP is doing abismally in Software sales, is loathed by developers, is plagued by piracy to the near point of utter failure and has single handedly burried a disc format, UMD. 

If hardware sales were the PSP's only issue, then there'd be no issue to discuss. However, that's not the case.

It's not a matter of taste, its a matter of you sregaling us with your naive fanboyism then playing it smug 

when we correct you.  If this was simply a matter of opinion, there would be no matter needing discussed,

now would there?  I assume though by your coiy change of tone in playing the, "everyone is entitled to

their opinion" argument that you're trying to cop out of this argument. Either way, you're welcome to leave

I've made more than an example of you.
