So, Sony might be killing the PSP Go in Japan, but it's certainly not going to can the PSP if its performance against Nintendo's DS is anything to go by.
MediaCreate states that last week:
35,478 PSPs were sold.
32,910 3DS left the shelves - and that includes the 3DS.
TGDaily makes a good point here, "It isn't about the hardware, though. It's all about the software, and the 3DS has been maligned for its lack of stellar launch titles. Nintendo did not release any Mario or Zelda games for it, which is unheard of for the company.
"Meanwhile, in Japan, the game Final Fantasy IV: Complete Collection was just released for the PSP, which boosted its sales to above-3DS levels not only two weeks ago but now last week as well."
