Kinda curious how many PSP's sold as Sony seemed to be sure that they would sell 1 million of them in the first couple days... I know that they sold at least 1 of that million... to me, and it was my best purchase of the year so far.

imo, not many because people aren't flipping over them on fleabay and every walmart/ebg/gs/bestbuy has several in stock in my town.

I don't know, but there must have been 50 of them in the case at Best Buy. I was hoping they'd have one out to look at (I'm not much of a gamer but I'm curious) but they had none on display.

Lots in stock though.

I can tell you, demand was low, many stores still had them in stock today, sales are far below expectations IMO.

After seeing how many PSP's where on the Shelves at Wal - mart and Target on the 2nd day of its release I dont think they have sold as much as they were hoping....specially with the number of people returning them.

i asked the electronics guy at target and he told me same thing,

"already have several of them returned & have them in stock after 2nd day"

i guess it's the price?

i was playing with it (returned one) & personally i think it feels bit too nice for a game system...weird but that was my impression.

People are returning them because those greedy fvck can't sell them for a profit on fleabay or craiglist.
