"DS outsold by PSP for the second week running"

Well I hate to say I told you so, it would appear the PSP is starting to take control.

22,000 more PSP's sold than DS last week and that is up on the 12,000 of the week before and is even more the PS2.

PSP 66,000
PS2 56,000
DS 44,000
Gamecube 5,000
Xbox 495

Not only look how the Gamecube gets a kicking as well 10 PS2's to 1 GC.

Better sell your DS's and get a real next gen system.

Not a truer word spoken there.

The PSP has a crap battery life.

End of.

If they manage to improve on this then they will have the better product but for the time being DS is the way forward. What's the point of having all this fancy crap when you can only play games for 2.5 hours?

[I]Find out next week, in the concluding part of...

...The hairy Trolls.

At this rate the PSP might JUST catch up with the DS! ;-)


They're both doing really well.
They've both got heavy reputations behind them.
It'll be atleast 6 months before we see anyone get the upper hand.
Personally, I think that the DS will win out in the long run, simply because it'll show people something that home consoles can't do, wheras the PSP will just be sub-PS2 games on a smaller games.

Funny that. The PS3 with it's infinite power won't be able to handle games like Feel the Magic! ;-)

Lets not forget the DS has had "dead pixel" issue's too.

I think the main point here is how Sony PSP has yet again out sold the DS. Question now has to be, will this trend continue?
And if it does, what implications are there for Nintendo DS?

Change is in the air I think.

Its good that the DS has 2 screens, and both combined have a lower chance of getting a dead pixel (or 5) than the PSP has on one screen.

I wouldn't have liked to be one of those unlucky 5000 though - so if i came from Japan, I'd be a little weary and deterred by that daunting news.

Oh, and you can only return PSP's if they have 5 or more dead pixels. 5 too many if you ask me.
