Is the Playstation Portable doomed?

20 million for the PSP actually isn't bad at all. It has already sold GameCube numbers in two years time. The bigger issues for the PSP is software sales. For whatever reason the average PSP owner is buying far fewer games than the average DS owner. Actually if you look the PSPs software to hardware sales ratio it's the worst for any major system that I can recall, even conciderably worse than was that for the GBA. You can explain that away with it having other features, and with the emulation factor, but that's really the 800 pound Gorilla in the room. The PSP was supposed to be the hardcore gamer's handheld, but the software sales don't reflect that at all.

That truely is bizarre.....I cannot understand anyone going to extreme of purchasing a PSP and only buying 1 game.  I have 17 games for the PSP and love most of them.....and I'd expect to have another 5-10 by the end of the year.

Even if you bought the wrong game and hated it...surely you'd get another totally different game to see what it like considering you've spent around £180 for it????

Gamers are the wierdest sort.
