I'm pretty sure this is fake, but...

"Sony used the new price point announcement to proclaim that since the PSP's launch last March, it has shipped 15 million units worldwide. It boasted that, so far, the handheld has brought in "more than $1.6 billion as of calendar year 2005, more than both Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS combined.""

that was in a news article announcing the new PSP price. im sure that 360 alone outsold it, let alone DS...

Well... It did sell a ton of UMDs. And it's not a cheap system.

"shipped 15 million units" thats how many they made since it was released, not how many were bought

what kinda bs is that? i know its not exactly cheap and they've sold tons of UMDs, but the DS has sold more systems(with the lite WAY more) and like every xbox 360 was sold before it hit the frickin shelf. the games for DS and x360 didn't exactly sell poorly, either.

Isn't Sony losing money with every PSP? I find it hard to believe they're making about $100 for every unit (even with UMD's in the mix). What do I know, those PSP fanboys probably buy 90% of all available UMD's (that's like what... $500?).
