Well, there goes your argument, the PSP in 2008 had plenty of Software compared to 2009.

lol.  In the past six months alone 2009 has had Gran Turismo, LittleBig Planet, MotorStorm Arctic Storm, Jak & Daxter Lost Frontier, Loco Roco Midnight Carvival, Rock Ban unplugged, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, Soulcalibur BD, Tekken 6, Assassin's Creed Bloodlines, Dissidia FF, Persona, Disgaea 2, GTA Chinatown Wars, the usual EA Sports lineup, the usual SCEA sports lineup, plus tons of minis/PS1 games... what did 2008 have it it's last six months?

According to NPD retail software sales for the portable is 79%, leaving the other 21% for the downloadable titles. So what *could* PSP software sales be when this is factored in for not just December, but for the 4th quarter of the year considering the GO is download only and the PSP-1000, 2000 and 3000 also have access to these downloadable titles?

 

Anyone know how many GOs are out there in the wild?

I also understand that the % is probably much lower than the 21% when it comes to the handhelds as opposed to the PC/Mac but who knows right?

 

People may act like it makes no difference, but in the case of the PSP it just might.
