Forums - Sales - DS is no competition for PSP, says Sony

     Yes, but the DS has no good games except for the ones that are made by Square-Enix.  And, the Wii may be the leading console saleswise  right now.   However, when you try to compare Wii games to  the games on previous  generation winners, they just blow compared to  SNES, PS1, and PS2 games.

Lol you fail  hard. I don't know where you got your information from, but there are many games not made by square that are good on the ds.

lets keep it going lol



Actually here is some proof that your statement is false.
here is the list of averages of ds games ratings
http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp
Now lets count how many square enix games are over 80%.
2 games, Yep 2 games out of the 42 games on that list over 80 are from square enix.

Now lets look at games 70 and above, since 80 is above average and 70 is about average. 8 games. 8 games out of 116. So seriously where is your proof that only square enix games on the ds are good?

Btw I'm a big square enix fanboy, and bought almost all of their ds games.



Ahh, good old cognitive dissonance rears its ugly head again, backed with the personal-belief-stated-as-fact routine... One of these days, some forum will require all statements regarding quality matters to be appended with "in my opinion", just to keep this sort of thing from raging out of control and hijacking entire threads.

Funny.

Sony has to choices here.

PSP as gaming machine - it gets beaten by Nintendo and DS badly

PSP as media player - it gets utterly abused by Apple and the iPod. Not even funny.

So Sony, which do you want to be? A good second place finish or a laughingstock? Your choice.

There Sony goes again, covering its shame. Nintendo will also be the best. Just keep your crappy toys out of the market Sony and let people who know what they are doing, do it right. You're not fooling anyone with that article.

Sony might have also made a ton of money off stuff like Go! Explore and the GPS stuff. Sony might be making aprofit off the PSp actually, it's hardware is similar to what was in the PS1... isnt it...?

 

 Ya right dude.

 

They need to take the Nintendo route.

Make money and therefore make a profit.

You know , its actually funny that you are talking again without knowing no straight facts :

 

The Ipod managed to sell l~ 11 million units in 3 years , while the PSP passed the 30 million mark . So where are you actually getting your numbers from ? I see that Sony actually managed to sell 6 times as many PSPs as Apple managed to sell Ipods . (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ipod_sales_2008_Q1.svg )

 

And as a gaming device , like it or not it is the first one that ever managed to get a significant market % from Nintendo , even now heaving almost 1/3 of the entire market ...

 

So yeas , the PSP went on a different rute , managing to somehow have a different market than the core market of the DS or Ipod , and thats how they managed to ship over 36 million units to date .
