How many times do I have to explain this?
Okay, here's the deal. Sony had 3 goals for the PSP.
1) make UMD the successful format
2) beat the DS in sales
3) make a profit
#1 and #2 didn't happen, and I'm very doubtful about #3.
So after that Sony decided to go for taking a chunk out of the DS's sales.
sadly, the DS soon became the most successful and highest selling handheld console nintendo had ever made. Not only did the PSP fail to grab a chunk out of the DS's sales. But the DS actually made the handheld market GROW. The DS was more successful with compition then the GBC/GBA ever was without it.
The PSP failed to meet it's goals, that is the definition of a failure.
