Japanese hardware sales, Oct. 9-15: The gap closes
If there's one thing I can say about the PSP's sales, is they've been holding steady at right around 20,000-25,000 each week for a good while now.
However, the DS Lite couldn't maintain its massive sales numbers it accumulated a few weeks ago when it sold nearly 275,000 units, which had more to do with Pokemon than anything else.
- DS Lite: 104,487
19,650 (15.83%)
- PS2: 24,727
3,537 (12.51%)
- PSP: 21,603
553 (2.63%)
- GBA SP: 2,299
767 (50.07%)
- Xbox 360: 1,743
358 (17.04%)
- Game Boy Micro: 1,714
441 (34.64%)
- Gamecube: 653
165 (33.81%)
- DS Phat: 273
13 (5.00%)
- GBA: 37
25 (208.33%)
- Xbox: 3
5 (62.5%)
The PSP doesn't have too many more releases this month with only Shinobido, Hot Shots Golf for GPS, Lost Regnum and Heaven's Will. It will be interesting to see if any of those games, especially Hot Shots, helps raise PSP sales the next couple weeks.
