SSBB Friend Code = 5455-9050-8670 (PM me if you add so I can add you!) 

Tetris Party Friend Code = 116129046416 (ditto)

Isn't Zune the mp3 player with DRM?



How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...

So now the Japanese market matters? I hate to break it to you but while the PSP is doing much better now its still not being bought primarily for gaming. It's only success is as a hardware device, not a gaming one. Eitherway, that's really not the point of this thread. Maybe you should calmn down a bit.


Onimusha knows these things; he has a secret power that lets him read the thoughts of everybody who purchases a PSP.

I really couldn't care less about the PSP, especially in a thread that has nothing to do about it, but cut it out with the whole wiser-than-thou argument. Good grammar isn't a substitue for a cohesive argument; you're stating stuff that you have no real idea about as if it was fact.

 


I have good grammar? Wow, I always thought it was above average but never anything impressive. Eitherway its been well known for a while now that the PSP has extremely poor software sales in comparison to hardware sales. People try to suggest that piracy and homebrew is the culprit for this, but to be honest with each Sony update for the PSP it becomes damn near impossible to do either of these. Its much easier to pirate games on the DS, yet we don't see this problem shared. I think a far more plausable explanation would be the popularity of the PSP as a relatively cheap multi-media communications device with free internet. Just a thought, I mean the PSP is only one of the biggest things to hit the club scene in the states since hot topic, its a pseudo-status symbol in many college town goth clubs. Its not unfeasable that in a culture such as Japan's (their youth) driven by communications and the craddle of the cell phone as we know it this day (text messaging, camera phone, video phone, etc), its not unthinkable that a similar appeal would exist.


 I dont care if its live just to clean toilets as long as it is . Hardware , software ? I dont care . I get quality PS2 like games on the go and thats enough for me . Did I say that the sofware sales are stellar no , but saying that it barely shows a pulse is ... well I would rather not say :?
