    1. A far less powerful and very outdated console is outselling Microsoft’s current gen HD console in Japan. Thats pretty sad. Guess Japan really doesn’t like American made consoles or just doesn’t like Microsoft. Poor Microsoft hahaha =D

  4. The psp continues to outsell the vita by almost twice as many units. It really is sad to see one of the worst portables of all time out sell its younger “better” sibling. I would have bought a vita on day one if they had not made it a touch screen. People talk about the Wii failing because it catered to casual gamers but holy mother of Schwarzengger sony out did themselves by taking what could have been an amazing portable and turning it into an iphone. I am not a fanboy I believe in the business not certain companies. Psp was terrible because it only had two or three franchises that sold well, one being the best selling portable game series of all, time that is now licensed to nintendo (monster hunter.)
