Do you think NGP could outsell 3DS?

Yes, NGP surely outsell 3DS. 48 27.27%
 
No, 3DS will rise again. 54 30.68%
 
Depends on when Sony releases NGP. 25 14.20%
 
Too early to tell... 49 27.84%
 
Total:176

way too early to tell.

I don't think it will BUT I do think sony will do much much better against 3DS than last gen for sure. E3 will give a good idea of how the games are for NGP...sooooo excited!

not yet, there are all sorts of rumors on it but nothing concrete. But given the specs I think 299 minimum

And $399 max. I doubt anyone would price it over. 



 

Assuming NGP is $249 / $299 then it is possible -- SONY does need to aim for a good launch period like maybe  Mid-October so they take advantage of holiday sales and if they are smart they will have a good line-up of games released within a few months of the system being out unless.

1. Games

2. Price

The NGP is about a $300 device, but without an iSuppli breakdown or what the pricing strategy will be (subsidized by 3G network fees? sold at a loss? break even? small profit from Day 1?) for the device, base MSRP could be anywhere from $299 to $350.

At that price, the NGP will have to have more than just a couple compelling titles that really showcase the abilities of the device to sell the upgrade over a $129 PSP.

In the case of the 3DS, there simply aren't enough, if any titles that really demonstrate that the device is much more than a DS with 3D. It is of course, but it still boils down to the software making this patently clear to consumers considering the price premium.



If sony has learned anything from there mistakaes from the PS3 launch they will know they only way to dethrown nintendo in the handheld market is to have some good SOFTWARE AT RELEASE!!!! 

And dont over price the thing. Make it $299-$349.    :)



I think the 3DS has been prematurely judged, Nintendo need to discontinue the DS before a true measure can be examined. those sales of the DS will go straight to the 3D imo.

either way the NGP should be more successful than the PSP which is the key thing for Sony, the titles they have for it are very impressive as well.

i also think they would do well to release the PS2 back catalogue on the NGP and also the PSP back catalogue.
