It won't pass 60 million.

Is this a joke? It's already well over 50 million (was 50 million as of January 31st and Sony expects to sell another 15 million this year.

I'm guessing it'll pass the GBA (81.47 million).

BTW, thesimexchange expects the psp to sell 87.38 million.

 

I'm using VGC numbers. I'm not sure where the 50m at the end of Jan comes from.

Currently it is 48.5m. Then you look at recent history.

	all 2008	Jan-Jun2008	jan-jun2009	%	est 2009
psp (millions)	13.3	5.7	3.7	64.9%	8.6

So, if I estimate another 8.6m sold this year (keep in mind this is 1/2 of what Sony projected in their last fiscal report) then it will total ~57.1m.

ok, my 60m is probably off. But, definitely not 80m given that:

1. Its sales are obviously slowing big time.

2. I don't think PSPGo will be successful.

3. PSP2 will launch by late 2010 as 1 and 2 come true.

 

According to sony, the PSP "sold" just over 50 million at the end of December 2008. Thats were he is getting his 50 million sales figure from.
