MediaCreate: PSP Sales

Quote:

MediaCreate releases PSP's launch sales report:

March 24th: 203,562 units

MediaCreate: "Many retail stores found themselves sold out of their PSP's within 2 hours of opening. Thankfully the next retail store had a few PSP's to sell off the shelf, but it wasn't long until Non-preorders snatched those units as well."

The hottest selling games for the PSP this launch weekend:
(in order of sales)
1. Ridge Racers
2. Wipeout Pure
3. Lumines
4. Twisted Metal: Head-On
5. Metal Gear Acid
6. Untold Legends

I've been trying so hard to find Ridge Racers.......

I was under the impression that there were more preorders than shipping units.

We're still not sold out. We've got two preordered units left and four walk-in units.

This is a funny story that Dark Samurai saw days ago. And this is not a fanboy story because Dark Samurai is the one who saw it, and he's far from a Sony fanboy.

A guy walks into Software ETC. (part of GameStop) and trades in 2 Gameboy SP's and 1 Nintendo DS with a bunch of games for a PSP......

Dark Samurai called him a Nintendo Traitor.... LOL

That's nothing compared to the guy who traded his car for a PSP.

A car for a PSP? Truth or Lie ... I can't even laugh at something like that.

The Wal-Mart here in Kirksville still has like 25 or 30 PSP's as well as a couple of copies of Ridge Racers.
