PSP - 26 + 53 = 79
Nintendo DS - 48 +78 = 126
The PSP has sold 26 3rd party games over 100,000.
The DS has sold 48 3rd party games over 100,000.
The Nintendo DS has 78 3rd party games UNDER 100,000.
The PSP has 53 3rd party games UNDER 100,000.
32% of 3rd party PSP games sell over 100,000.
38% of 3rd party DS games sell over 100,000.
Ok. There. You have it.
EDIT: If you want to discredit me for that. You had better find a better arguement than percents dont work.
To me it looks like I have a 32% chance of going over 100,000 on PSP, and 38% on DS. That's not a big diffrence, considering the DS has 3x the units sold... 100,000 should be VERY easy to get.
That's a good argument. It does show the DS ahead still, though. I'd be more interested in seeing those stats for what games released in the past year look like on each system, since that's when the upturn for the DS and the downturn for the PSP really happened.
The DS also seems to get more of the trash dragging the sales numbers down since it's so cheap to make. Which is another factor to consider -- DS games don't have to sell as much to make a profit as PSP games do.
