If so, then PSP should sell like hotcakes here as well! The Wii and DS came in 2nd and 3rd which is respectable. PSP's big brother though came [...]

Looks like another great freebie for PSP owners. You can now get free Wifi with any PSP. This is thanks to a partnership with ATT and Sony to get more people into Starbucks stores. There is only one issue in that you can't play games online using the Wifi connection.You'll be stuck with just interest browsing which isn't too bad. This is a pretty sweet deal for those who hate paying for Wifi at coffee stores. The iPhone was the first mobile device to g [...]

Sony is really trying to expand the market of PSP into the kids and female area. This area has been well dominated by Nintendo, but it may now change. Sony has now come out and admitted that they are changing their focus to women and children. This is interesting because they are basically saying they won't be catering to hardcore gamers as much.We believe Sony is closely watching sales of Nintendo DS and Wii and finding that many people want games tha [...]

Earlier in the year, it didn't seem like the Sony PSP would be able to hold the top spot for the rest of the year, but now it finally seems like a reality.

New games coming out for both North America and Asia, but no games for Europe. Ironically, North America gets UEFA Euro 2008 soccer game, which is highly popular in Europe. They received it a month ago, so it really isn't that ironic.For Asia, they are getting Daisenryaku VII Exceed and UEFA Euro 2008. I'm not sure how many European soccer fans there are in Asia, so I doubt it'll be a big hit. Daisenryaku VII Exceed looks like a great game though. It i [...]

However, the PSP is coming back with strong sales of new consoles and games, so now they are rec [...]
