Just a simple discussion to pinpoint what it is about the PSP that stumps sales. 

Don't expect the PSP Slim & Lite to save the day because the problem with the PSP was not it's design,

The price of the PSP is fine, it's come down alot over the times,

Most of us enjoy the games, it's library has no problems,

So why does it get so brutally beaten by the DS?

Well I think it is to do somewhat with it's library, maybe 20% of the reason.

Regardless of Sony's goal the PSP is pointing at the exact same market as the DS, non-hardcore 8-18 year olds.

It hasn't got Pokemon and Mario, I think the PSP is doing the absolute best any portable console can do without Pokemon or Mario, or maybe people just like the idea of two screens and one of them being a touch screen..?

Would the PSP be doing that much better even if Nintendo didn't currently have a portable console out at the moment?

Anyone got an ideas?

I think the PSP is doing great and will continue to do great, I just think it has potential to be up there with DS.
