Will the Wii ever outsell the PSP in Japan?

Yes, the Wii will pass the PSP in Japan.

Align their launches and see for yourself:

If the PSP were to win, then the PSP would have to sell this well forever, and the Wii would have to have this drought forever. Both are possible, but I highly doubt that's what will happen.

The PS3 is selling better than the 360 when you align launches, so...

It won't happen. Japan is very handheld oriented now and even big games like Monster Hunter or Dragon Quest couldn't fill a gap that large.

 

Are you serious??? I thought you were a good analyzer but that doesnt seem to be the case. Let's talk about that in a couple of months.

 

How about now? Perhaps you should tell me why you quoted my post just to tell me how terrible I am at analyzing and not providing any reasons. Go ahead, I'll wait.

 

Becuase that is not real analysis; it's a prediction. You only looked at the problem halfway. The Wii and PSP are very close in terms of sales. Additionally, you discredit any other idea by saying "Japan is handheld oriented." The whole appears when we look at Japan's hardware sales from the last two weeks and see, why look, the PS3 is doing the best in Japan thanks to software. If you were good at this, you'd realize that we are in a software business. Since games are about content, people buy the software. The hardware is only a means to play the software.

It's not that your idea is wrong. But it was so empty that I could poke holes right though it. I could go on, but Family Guy is on :P.
