Not that we could expect anything different anyway, but even with more reasons, with PSN down most of the time, Sony's best seller system in Japan during Golden Week will be PSP. What we still don't know is whether PS3 will take a significant hit or not, maybe with people actually going to brick and mortar shops for their special offers, and even when buying systems online, doing it mostly from 3rd party sites, the damage on HW sales and SW on physical support too could be limited, while the one on downloadable content purchase will be without any doubt huge. |
Oh my, that PS3 would have been partially damaged, not exploiting Golden Week to the maximum was predictable, that PSP would have been Sony's best seller and possibly also Japan weekly best seller was predictable too, but a >50% weekly growth for PSP, when all the others stayed under 40% (except XB360 gaining almost 120%, but on a small base number), and what's more, following a 99% increase the week before, was maybe a little bit less predictable: PSP grew to more than 3X, that's more than 200% increase in two weeks! REVENGE OF THE OFFLINE!
