Monster Hunter 2 did nothing for long term PSP sales in Japan.

there is NEVER a single factor that caused any phenomenon. It's always a combination of a few factors working together.

Did Wii win all because of Motion sensor singlehanded??? No, it won also because of their good first party game and Nintendo brand name, as well as the low price.

To say that MH didn't save PSP (or deny that it didn't help) is absolute, to quote the OP, bullshit

Please refer to chart 1. It shows the PSP sustaining 60k a week before and after the release of Monster Hunter 2G. Graph 2 shows that it was sustaining 60k a week long before Monster Hunter 2G came into the picture. MH didn't save the PSP. The PSP saved the PSP.

If you have some evidence to contradict this then please post it. Please don't post something with no facts to support it at all after I have clearly shown it is wrong though.

 

there are TONS of evidence against it. Mostly things a diagram wouldn't be able to show (at least single diagram wouldn't show)

Things invovling

*a slow fall off of a console after re-design.
*slow world economy
*slow summer season.

 

To completely deny any credit MH have on PSP is like showing single diagrams saying GTAIV boosted Wii sales. (when in fact, we know it was strong supply that did the trick)
