Well the PSP is about to get another color, so obviously they are not ready to let it go anytime soon. How many games we see for it at E3 should give us a hint at how Devs are feeling about PSP/Vita.

I doubt it'll get that many games at E3. They'll want to push the Vita as much as possible.

Yea, I say around 10m for B/W2. I mean that one game isn't going to boost a system which already has an install base of over 150m and it has a successor that can play it on the market with good momentum going for it.

I suppose not, maybe. Black and White seem to have provided a small boost to the DS in 2010-2011. We'll see what happens, starting in Japan in a month. I still believe the price drop and the new big games will sustain DS sales enough from last year for it to pass PS2 eventually.

Then again, Sony always ships a surprisingly high amount of PS2s per quarter. I am amazed it is still going pretty strong!

That's absolutely true. I'm sure it'll be a close one! It's amazing how much life both consoles have had.
