Im pretty sure 3DS is tracking ahead of PSP in USA

The Wii was tracking ahead of the PS2 too.

Whats ur point? Completely different consoles, do u think 3DS is all of a sudden going to stop selling in the USA in the next 2-3 years? It has about 50% of the USA PSP userbase and with Pokemon/2DS it could rise to 65-70% by the end of the year. So it would have to sell 6-7 million units in the second half of its lifetime.

Europe is a different story, its tracking below PSP and might not pass its lifetime sales but Japan is almost gauranteed to.

Edit: what kind of argument is that anyway? U said 3DS is currently doing OK and is no PSP. Its doing better in 2/3 of the major territories and worldwide. What it does later in its life is irrelevent because we are talking about how Its doing now.

It'd doing medicore in USA and worse in Europe. What counts though is the WW total.
