Lets see ...after the last data of this page(february 2007 ) PSP has sold in NA some 30 million games and 7.78 million consoles .THe DS has sold some 42 million games for 11 million consoles .The ratios are 3.85 for the PSP and 3.81 for the DS .....I dont see the PSP ratio as very bad .Issue is that the bulk of the DS sales are 3-4 Nintendo games that appear in the top ten and create an impression ,but as far as ratio go they are even ,the PSP even edges out the DS for some margin .Having so many users that buy the machine solely for Nintendogs and BT has some of these aftereffects .And in Europe the situation is more or less the same .THe only place where PSP and specially its software sells really poorly compared to DS is Japan where the ratios are 2-1 for the DS .And thats having in count the PSP suffers from some massive piratery ,and the PS3 wont suffer that for quite some time ...


 i'm speaking WORLD WIDE:

 

HARDWARE FROM THIS SITE:

NINTENDO DS: 40.31m

PSP: 21.09m

 

SOFTWARE ALWAYS FROM THIS SITE:

 PSP :11.6m

http://vgchartz.com/worldtotals.php?name=&console=PSP&publisher=&sort=Total

 

NINTENDO DS: 86.3m

http://vgchartz.com/worldtotals.php?name=&console=DS&publisher=&sort=Total 

 

 

NOTE:only million sellers,but we can assume from lineups that numbers  are significative of general trend. 

 

RATIO PSP

11.6m/21.09m = 0,55  GAMES PER CONSOLE

 

RATIO DS

86.3m /40.31m = 2,14 GAMES PER CONSOLE

 

 IF ps3 will have same software numbers would be a failure...

 


And now is when you have to explain to me how it is possible for the PSP to have sold some 30 million games in NA and 11 million in Japan (plus the unknow but probably akin to NA Europe numbers ) and still only have sold 11 million games worlwide .Your numbers are wrong ,so wrong in fact I am a bit embarrased you dont see it .
