Japan: PSP-3000 boosts sales, but overall game market declines |
Ó
The numbers in Japan for the month of October are now in from Famitsu. Data shows strong sales of the PSP-3000, which was released during the month, boosting overall PSP sales.The industry as a whole seems to be suffering in the region though; the data says that sales keep falling since last year. Compared to the same period from last year, hardware sales declined 29.1%.
No shocker there - almost everyone there probably has a console by now. Software sales are falling as well, 14.9% less than last year. Small wonder, since the region's leading console is the Wii, and Nintendo's been pretty quiet for the platform lately. Here are the hardware sales numbers for the month of October:
- PSP: 267,000
- DS: 140,000
- Wii: 98.285
- PS3: 22,343
- Xbox 360: 27,224

I think you mean psp 3000, you guys have been getting lazy...I'm seeing more and more mistakes every time
Same ive been noticing a lot of mistakes too.
They are only human though.
i was juggling a lot of things at the same time so i missed that one. corrected!
the japz' squinty eyes can't pick up the new 'features' of the 3000!
LOL. Racist, I know, but its just harmless poking fun...no offense!
As well as being racist (to me), it doesn't even make sense.
The sales show that they CAN pick up the features, no?
Not funny, just racist.
Besides, they "make" the features.
that it doesn't make any sense. It's just a stupid joke...
just like you have a brain but too bad you don't know how to use it
