Pretty interesting, and perhaps explanatory, statistic.

This is all over the game media today.  Here's one of the many links reporting the story

The real question is what 52% of PSP owners do with their PSPs!

I call bullshit!
This Nielsen study is full of errors.

All i know is that seeing a hot girl play on a PSP is really hot lol

Certainly the PSP seems like it would be more attractive to someone who wanted an all-in-one media device, as opposed to a pure gaming platform (i.e. the female handheld consumer).

52% seems excessive, but... I suppose its certainly possible.

I can believe it, my gf wont get off mine.

I think that, by reverse correlation, the PSP is therefore the sexiest handheld for a male gamer to own. ;)

I don't believe this ! Where I live, if a girl likes video games then she would have a Wii or DS.

I believe this. I walked in to my school with my PSP once and like 14 girls on the way to my class were showing me theirs and asking what games I play on it. It was kinda hot.

What? So the userbase which holds the more female gamers is the X360?

This is absolute bullshit.
