If GT PSP is 1.8m and vgchartz got 1.11m sales for it, does it mean, that Digital Distribution is a big deal for PSP already?

There's a better explanation - GT PSP was likely overshipped heavily. 700k in dd is way too high.

Wasn't GT PSP a free download for European GO buyers?  That could maybe good for a few 100k alone?

The game tanked in Japan though, and the US NPD sales we got were even more pitiful (<20k launch month iirc).  Must've done insanely well in Europe, but yeah, likely way overshipped.

I got it that way (with GO purchase). Also GT PSP was on the top of the PSN downloads in EU for quiete some time, usually ranking 1-5th since it's launch (on PSP store that is). I wouldn't underestimate the numbers that DD is able to pull off.
