So it`s now at 38 mln. mark. In last 4 months of 2007 PSP made:

VGChartz Hardware data for the period 08th Sep 2007 to 29th Dec 2007:

Console	PSP
Total	6,009,624
America	2,157,980
Japan	1,733,388
Total Others	2,118,256

If PSP will match these sales, then by the end of 2008 it should reach 44 mln. so far. =) During that time in 2007 PSP slim was released, that gave a boost to PSP sales. In Japan FF7:CC also spiked sales. =)

This year, PSP also getting new model, though 1,5 month later, then a year ago. Also in Japan PSP getting FF:Dissidia, there will be some bundles too, which may too boost sales.

So, 44 mln. is best case, what we can expect this year for PSP or it could sell even higher? Or maybe worse? What do you think? Discuss. =)

based on some random calculations, I think I'll be fairly close.

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

wow, I don't even like the PSP, and it looks like I'll end up having the highest prediction

Good thread.

I don't think the new model has nearly the same differences from its prior version as last year, and won't have the same boost. And FF:Dissidia won't be anywhere near as successful as FF7:CC. But the boost has mostly been sustained all year from last year anyway so we could still see similar numbers.

Around 44-45 million I think.

I think this might be Crazzy's most sane thread so far.... all the comparisons look valid to me, and you give reasons why it might not make 44 as well as why it might pass it.
