According to eBay sales:

Well, timing's also important. There are fewer people who have PSPs, so there are more people who want to have one, but don't. I still know people interested in getting an expensive I-Pod rather than a PSP, due to the linear use of the 'Pod.

Check again next month? I'll be interested in the numbers then.

Right now, it's like saying Madden 2005 is outselling College Football '04 (and I don't know if there is such a thing).

That means more people are selling their PSPs on eBay because they didn't live up the hype .

Just kidding!

One thing I like about this non-sellout launch is that it backfires right in the faces of those poo-poo face pee-pee heads who stockpile new systems and sell them for outrageous prices...

Around launch I saw a picture featured in an auction of like 8 psps stacked in some guy's house... It was fairly close to ending, and was maybe just barely over PSP's retail price...

But what really made me happy was seeing the people who made "buy it now"-only auctions for like 350 ending without a sale

yes, that i love. I'd love to see thoes people actually not be able to sell em at retail price and lose money over all. I hate people like that.

Well, yes... but that's not the PSP's fault.

Apparently Sony hasn't caught on to Apple's size reductions; each new iPod generation becoming thinner, smaller, and sleeker than the one before it.

The reasons Sony will never sell as many PSPs as Apple has sold iPods is because Sony didn't try to make the PSP smaller. If they had made it the size of an iPod Shuffle, Nintendo loyalists and non-gamers alike would've ran to stores on launch day.

Nintendo's next Gameboy will definitely be the size of an iPod Shuffle or smaller. That's what true gamers want.

1) The ipod has been out for years, the PSP, has not. Give the PSP time to catch up in the relative sales to time being on the market ratio.

2) the ipod shuffle is horrible. It has no screen to view the song you're playing.

3) If the PSP was the size of an ipod shuffle, You wouldnt be able to see what it is you're playing. The PSP is a media device, the ipod is an MP3 player. Different catagories.

The reason the Ipod will OUTSELL the PSP is because it's a f*cking music player.....more people listen to music then play games. You could have just said that.

And what's with the comparison? Might as well compare the function of your elbow to the function of your penis. Oh, whoopdeedo, the PSP can play music. I could have sex with my elbow too.

And.....Gamemaster actually made me laugh, after I read his post twice to make sure he was joking, which I hope he was. If he wasn't, I hope he gets speared to death by angry eskimos.
