Japan hardware sales chart, Aug. 7-13: More of the same
Those damn Japanese are at it again with their never-ending obsession with the Nintendo DS Lite. Last week, it seemed the PSP was possibly staging a comeback, but a surge in DS Lite sales that almost topped 200,000 nipped any thought of that in the bud.- DS Lite 196,719(19,866)- PSP: 41,289(1,315)- PS2: 26,547 (96)- GBA SP: 3,051(822) - Gameboy Micro: 2,031(265)- Xbox 360: 1,204(1,042)- Gamecube: 940(99)- DS Phat: 934(596)- GBA: 23(14)- Xbox: 6(5)I'm tired of thinking of reasons to why the DS Lite is handing the PSP its ass. Sony is going to have to do something to turn the momentum back in its favor very quickly, or any thought of winning in Japan will be lost. Maybe Sony can start by getting some games on its system that will compete with the DS Lite's. Oh well, there's always next week, right?(Via PSP Advanced)
