PSP overtakes DS in Japanese hardware sales

Filed under:

Just in case you’ve been keeping one eye trained on the console wars out there, you might want to take note of the most recent sales figures from Japan. According to the latest stats, the PSP overtook the DS, Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, and PS2 in sales last week, propelled by the newest handheld installment of the Final Fantasy series, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. Sure, it’s happened before, but with the increasing competitiveness out there, this one seems extra important. The message should be clear to Nintendo — don’t rest on your laurels. Also, don’t miss out on really hot Square Enix exclusives. The last thing you want is to go the way of Atari, and just end up as a simulation on a thriving system.
