Can't wait for this weeks numbers. I expect DS and Wii to be monsers as usual....

PS3 has a chance at topping 1 Million but I still have my doubts.

360 to keep the pace at around 500-550K

PSP to do horribly and PS2 to do amazing for a console 9 years old.

PSP is a 6 years old console and already have a install base of 50 M +, so its not doing horribly at all. Not as good as DS doesnt mean horribly you know.

For a format that just got a new model release, it's doing pretty badly.  PS2, GBA, DS, PS3 and even PSP before skyrocketed after model revisions, but the GO has been a pretty obvious failure at both selling on it's own or igniting any general interest in the PSP platform.

And with a base of 50m+, don't even get me started on it's pathetic software sales... Sony needs some secure DRM, and they need it like yesterday.

I had Xmas lunch at friends, and they bought their elder son LittleBigPlanet PSP, well, despite not as good as the PS3 version I saw around, it's quite good, and mother, father and son were all addicted to it, but trying to help them in a point where they were stuck (eventually I found the solution in a Youtube video, as I don't have either a Playstation or LBP) I didn't change my mind, even on newer version of PSP I still hate its controls and LBP betters the situation only a little using very few of them. The screen, OTOH, is big and quite good, if I found a PSP at the same price of a cheap multimedia player I could buy it as a player that can occasionally do games. But paying it full price, and for gaming, forget it.

IMVHO Sony made PSP a decent Jack of all trades, but master of nothing. Still more successful than Zune, but hey, most multimedia players are
