PSP Sales Take A Nosedive News

Sony PSP sales plummet while Xbox 360s are flying off the shelves in the run-up to Halo 3's release...
MCV report that sales of Sony's PSP were 32% higher this time last year, according to figures from British firm ChartTrack, which also show that last week was the PSP's worst sales period since launch.
Sony have pointed out that consumers are simply holding off in anticipation of the new PSP Lite (due out on September 14th). ChartTrack director Dorian Bloch told MCV: "There are probably a lot of consumers who are now waiting for Slim & Lite to arrive. The fact that kids are returning to school is also sure to have had a marked effect. There are always bad words to say about a dip like this, but there may well be a sales spike in week 37 after the new console is launched."
Conversely, the Xbox 360 enjoyed a 260% rise in sales two weeks ago after the introduction of the Elite model and, perhaps more contributory to the rise, price cuts on the other two Xbox 360 units. These figures dipped only 20% the following week and, with the imminent release of Halo 3 atop a £4 million marketing campaign, Microsoft are at least experiencing a brief resurgence.
"We've seen what the previous two iterations of Halo did for console sales, so we're anticipating an incredible amount of demand come the launch of Halo 3," said Microsoft's head of gaming and entertainment Stephen McGill.
"The day one revenue of Halo 2 was the biggest number for the launch of any entertainment property. That has since been surpassed by Spider-Man 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3. But we're confident Halo 3 will take back this accolade."
