R.I.P. PSP...it was only two years old

You only think it's dying because you compare it to the DS. If you compare anything with the DS the conclusion would be the same.

"Poor water, it has only lived for 15 bilion years, but now it's dying" :P

The PSP had potential. Too bad no company bothered to actually take advantage of it. Then, Sony just up and abandoned it. I only have sport games on mine...

How is it dying?

Anything is dying compared to the DS if thats what you mean. :P

It's dying...slowly. Noticed that it's selling less and less every month, and it has no new movies coming out on it or thatm much games. It is dying, just really slow.DuDisNow

Thats funny cause its sales went up drastically in May. 183k to 222K

PSP is outselling the Xbox360.Socrates88

And the PS2, PS3, GBA and GC.

But yes, the PSP currently is doing pretty damn well.

also the psp isnt just about games, it plays videos, music, shows pictures, and plays high-def movies can a DS do that?? nopeeeeee

33% market penetration is awesome getting into a Nintendo dominated market.

Microsoft even said 5% market penetration with its Zune on the iPod dominated market was good.

It grew up intoa two year little handheld Playstation system, but now it's dying...ans Sony has done nothing to help it. DId the DS shoot the PSP or something?DuDisNow

Lol, with the iPod doing absolutely nothing and Zune and Creative Zen breaking out new ideas, there is a diversification. Not like PSP vs DS but there are huge differences.

except Wii

What I don't understand is why Sony made the PSP have only ONE analog stick...Thats just stupid if you ask me...Faust_DWfan

They ran out of room. They barely had room for the square button because the system is so packed.

Actually if you read the NPD report, PSP sales have been rising slowly.

hahaha remember the good old days of "the DS is a gimmicky Nintendo trick, it's going to die down like all other fads." Well well cows, the DS has some amazing games, innovative gameplay and it's crushing the PSP and so I MIGHT as cows; what say you?GanonBuRAP

I say the PSP has 54 AA's whereas the DS only has 24. We all know the PSP has better games, yet sheep all they can talk about is sales.

Yes, it is. Yet, your lemming buddies like to compare the GBA to the PS3. Funny isn't it?

Well the 360 would be a failure then. That would be the only logic.

The only thing dying on the PSP are the batteries. Mine not as fast as everyone else though, got that upgraded one. :)TekkenMaster606

I thought yours lasted 14 hours?

Yeah, at full charge, lowest brightness running things off of a memory stick.

I thought you said you got a new battery? why not just wait for a PSP lite if that's the case?

I bought one of those batteries but it turned out to be defective as it dies off after 3 hours : /

On Topic: The USA is the PSP's life as its the only place PSP is selling just below decent.
