I thought similar things but for different reasons. Handhelds are generally more mainstream than that of consoles (lower price as well) and thus are able to pick up bigger increases during such times. So I figured PSP, would at least similarly be able to do something comparable to what it did last year especially with the abundance of bundles and new PSP Go. Problem was 3 things. One, unsuccessful new released software and especially in the bundles didn't tempt many. Second, a failed marketing campaign (if it existed) for that of the PSP Go. And the third and big reason, DS simply left no room for another competitor. It did over a million in that week and really PSP got over shadowed by it. |
Well, that WAS my reasoning and I thought everyone was wrong about it because no matter who I talked to, they were like "the pspgo is a failure and is going to drop yoy".
I thought to myself, "this can't be true (insert similar reasons to those you mentioned), those people must be wrong"
Maybe a bit of fanboyism got in the way there. But then again, my DS numbers are extremely high too, so there's no bias....I guess I just thought pspgo would pick up sales but it didn't. (Hopefully pspgo is somehow not being listed in the psp sales, *crosses fingers*)
