Forums - Website Topics - Global Hardware Totals of DS and PSP. How to view them now?

tolu619 on 18 January 2012

       The global hardware totals comparison chart shown on the homepage of VGChartz has swapped out the DS and PSP for the 3DS and PSV. I'm sure I can easilly find the global hardware totals of the last gen portables but can I still get a comparison image/chart like I used to get? The diagrammatic representation really works for me and I was thinking about embedding it in my blog.

From the main page, put your mouse cursor on "Analysis" and than under "Hardware Analysis" , click on Hardware totals.


I'm not really sure if that's accurate, though. Compare it to the worldwide weekly total:

The hardware totals says the PsP is at 70.99 million, the worldwide weekly says it's at 72.86 million. The same goes for the DS.

I think its just implied now that DS > PSP in the grand scheme and we leave it at that.

150 vs what 70 million?



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Thanks guys! Off topic, how does the DS compare with the PS2 in total sales? *checking http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/40916/Global/ for info*

Finally we have the 3DS and PSV on the front page. It's going to be a struggle for the 3DS to maintain its marketshare in the coming months.


Sarcasm detected.

No, it's a trap.

For ease of calculation, let's round the current marketshare of the two devices to 95 % and 5 %, respectively. In order for the 3DS to maintain its share, it needs to outsell the PSV 19:1 every week on a worldwide basis. That's certainly not going to happen with the upcoming PSV launches in America and Europe.

You're just being overly pessimistic.

     He's actually very correct. Literally, it WILL be a struggle for the 3DS to maintain a 95% market share in the following months. I expect more or less the same market share ratio as the DS to the PSP. Also, I didn't find any visual(pictorial) chart that compares the total hardware totals of the DS and the PSP, though i found their total hardware figures in numbers.

Yes, I'm aware of that, my post wasn't meant to be interpreted seriously. The 3DS should be at around 30 million at the end of 2012, and the Vita is obviously going to be at more than 1.6 million, which is what would be needed to get 5% market share.

 I'd pretty much have to be a complete idiot in order to disagree with Rol here.
