PSP-2000 begs to differ
|
It had four days of sales though. |
That made me think.
Maybe it's more interesting to compare the '1-Day Averages' or whatever you'd want to call it, to put everything in better perspective. Redesigns are in italics, bold is new entry;

Judging by this, we see that PSP, 3DS and PSV (yes) all had an exceptional launch, with 3DS being the winner, with over 150,000 sales on an average launch-week day. GBA and DS also had good launches, with over 100,000. 3DSXL actually takes the crown for most succesful redesign, ahead of the DSi and PSP-2000. The DSLite had apparently actually quite a disappointing launch, with less than 20,000 sales on an average launch-week day, being worse than the GameBoyMicro and the PSP-Go.
EDIT: formatting's a *****. Tables are annoying.
