Sony Trash Talks DS

[ShadowMarth]

Very completely... It sells about 3-5 times as much as the PSP.

Some of this should be heard by all the PSP fanboys that think Sony is cool.

Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong but PSP still isn't released in the UK and Sony is suing import sellers and taking the PSP's from import buyers without paying them back.

That is true,well I am led to believe anyway.

Like 1-up comments, Sony will "re-do" the PSP and learn my mistakes. Interesting, wonder if Sony will adhear to this...probably not.

True, but Japan, America and Europe are three totally differnet markets. I think the PSP will own the DS here, with the DS still having a good few owners of course, and America will be about equal. Overall I think the DS will sell better, but only just...

PSP will own the UK, after a while the PSP and DS will keep edging over ech other in both US and possibly Japan.

BAN THIS SONY FANBOY! XD ;)

PSP will own in the UK, but I think in Japan it will easily win. America I'm still not sure about... anyone know facts and figures for sales?

DS clearly has more sales than PSP in America and Japan, sort of common knowledge to any serious DS fan.
I see PSP as a gimmick trying to fit a bunch of stuff that clashes into an expensive handheld. How many movie-goers do you know that would buy 2+ formats of the same movie and listen to mp3's on the go and play games, all enough to make it worth the $250+ before it gets out of style? I don't, but then again I'm a gamer that doesn't get out much to become mentally disturbed by world corruption.
Ok I feel a little better now... first day of school. :?

[chuddy_2001uk]

Lol school :P

Anyway, to be honest there are people who are stupid enough to buy a PSP*.

*me being one of them :( But the DS and PSP are totally different things which in all fairness shouldn't really be compared to such a degree as this.

Yes I know my tone has changed a little .

japan and america aren't totally different markets. if it sells well in japan, it sells well over here. it happens every time(except for the REALLY odd games where you pick people's butts, but those don't sell well anyway...).

but going from america to japan, its different. look at xbox.

Ok seriously, I've barely looked at Xbox enough to know what your point is (did it sell better or worse in Japan?).
