PSP outsells DS this week

For the first time in 2007, PSP sales exceeded DS sales this week - 420,000 to 350,000 units. This is in large part due to the enormous launch in Japan of PSP Slim & Lite, selling over 270,000 units in that region alone. Expect sales to remain high through the holiday period.

Actually, I bet it has more to do with the Final Fantasy and Metal Gear solid games than it does the release of a new PSP model.



I doubt through the holiday season but maybe for the next week and done. I mean doesn't Zelda: Phantom Hourglass release soon in America. That should boost DS sales.

Nah, it's the new PSP models. Notice the hardware outsold the software on the weekly chart. Final Fantasy tumbled 75%.



So... that makes it... the 5th week in 2 or so years?

 Still batter than the Gamecube/PS2 competition , and seeing that there are games like MPO2 , MHF2G and KH : BBS comming out , I say that the PSP hasa good chance for a couple of weeks of glory , even next year :P
