Wow, didn't think it would be this much of a slaughter. I mean, the GC outsold it Xmas week. This is not good, regardless of the shortage issues

The PSP may be off to a slow start, but I'll be surprised if it doesn't end up challenging Nintendo. I'm really surprised that the DS is doing as well as it is, actually - it's such a bizarre system, and the launch line-up it so damned poor.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>? All I've ever said is that the PSP would start selling well 'cause of Sony's marketing. I never once said that Nintendo's understanding of the handheld market was less superior, just that Sony would challenge them due to the "coolness" of their new system</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>First position by Zeus: PSP will rock the charts because it is cool and DS is not therefore will not sell as well; Zeus now: (I knew it would be a slaughter) I didn't know it would be this much of a slaughter, Zeus's third position: Sony marketing means that PSP units will sell some units.</div>
