Okay. I thought we're discussing the US/Japan market. Since that's where most of the softwares are sold. But if you're using "worldwide" numbers, you might want to re-read my previous post. As I said, PSP consoles have a very big market in China. But there are no games. All Chinese PSP games are fan-translated. We're looking at a huge amount of units sold and ZERO software support.
