@outlawauron

technically why do SONY, MS n NINTY do this

for PROFIT

& apparently Ninty got more profit on Gamecube than SONY did on PS2

so yeah Gamecube was the biggest success last gen (very arguable tho)

I remember when Bunkum gave the PSP software sales ....they were way better than right now .I have always suspected that the PSP software sales are vastly undertracked by vgchartz .

 Gamecube sold more software than PS2? Wow.

@Darthdevim

The ps2 gave sony billions of dollars in profit.

 Conspiracy theory?

LOL, dream on :)

Does this conspiracy extend to the NPD, Media Create and other sales tracking companies?

...

There is no spin or debate on the topic IMO. Software sales for the PSP are simply atrocious.

Check out for some comparisons:

http://vgchartz.com/worldtotals.php?name=&console=PSP&publisher=&sort=Total

PSP has 11 recorded 1m+ shippers. Of these, only 1 has sold more than 2m.

The GC has 40 recorded 1m+. Including 11 that have sold 2m+.

For a fairer comparison, have a look at the DS (released same time as PSP):

 - 31 1m+ shippers

 - 15 2m+ shippers

The top shipping DS title (Nintendogs) has shipped (almost) the same number of units as ALL the 1m+ PSP shippers put together.

The PS2 has almost 200(!) titles that shipped 1m+ units. (and for interest, Nintendogs has shipped more units that the top recorded PS2 title! which is San Andreas...)

Wipeout and Tekken are missing from that list, who knows what else.

FF VIICC is going to sell 1 million(japan alone)

BBS kingdom hearts is going to sell 1 million(japan alone)

God of war is going to sell 1 million(U.S alone)

and thats all I can think of.

MGS

Tekken

and wipe out sold 1 million why arent they on the list?

New MGS psp, Star wars game (bundle), Gt portable.
