who care about PSP Go, that is not what you should talking about, laughing at PSP Go sales was like 2 months ago.
The Wii sales truly surprise me in comparison to the PS3, but I guess it is due somewhat to the Wii2 rumors. If PSP can match the 3DS week-in and week-out, it might be a good sign for the NGP.
