People in glass houses...

 

the most hacked system ever :p.

though in japan ;).

There's just as much DS and Wii piracy as PSP piracy, if not more.  I'm tired of this excuse...

In Japan, it's basically a Monster Hunter box.  Wow.

KH box, and FF box, recent games in japan performing  decently.

KH kinda stalled short.  Considering everything that went into it, it really should've cleared a million.  It would have on PS2...

What FF are you talking about?  Everything FF that wasn't FFXIII tanked recently (Gaiden on DS, Crystal Bearers on Wii, Dissidia Universal Tuning on PSP).

 

 

WTF are you talking about? Crisis Core is this generations best selling portable FF game. Hell as far as I know the best selling portable FF game ever. Dissidia UT was basicly a fast re-release, while the real Dissidia will probably clear the 2 million to. MH games sell tons on the PSP, true, but saying that its a MH box is arrogant at best. Games like Phantasy Star sell far better on the PSP then DS,while the long in development PS0 bombed in comparison with what the PSP versions sell. New IPs like God Eater are doing pretty damn well in Japan, and even outside of Japan yearly franchises like FIFA, PES, MADDEN, WWE SvR, NFS all sell far better on the PSP then on the DS. The PSP has a CoD game that did well over a million while the DS versions barely reach the 600k ( yes, I think one of them is even overtracked here, go look on the devs, n-space, website ;)).And all of tehse whitout PSN numbers. And dont forget, there are over 50 million PSN capable PSPs out there, and not just the GOs.

 

The PSP CAN push software just like the DS. and yes, the DS has plenty bombs to, just like the PSP... maybe thats why Ubisoft stopped publishing all that casual crap on it, beacsue it simply didnt sell...

 

PS: why do you even compare the sales pattern of the PSP with the ones of the PS2? The PS2 sold FAR better then the PSP, and its also a home console, so your comment is pretty much worthless from that point on.

 

I'm talking about Japan.  And Crisis Core isn't exactly what I'd call "recent".  It came out in 2007 originally.

Also, taking issue with me calling PSP a "Monster Hunter Box" and then going on to highlight two blatant MoHun clones doesn't exactly help your case. ;)

 

And no, I'm sorry but PSP can't push games like DS.  In it's (by far) strongest territory it's only had 3 games ever clear million, while DS has had 30.  That alone illustrates the gulf in sales between them.  The reason I compare it to PS2 is due to the similarity in spec... Crisis Core and BBS both could've easily been PS2 games really.
