The contenders: The Sony PSP and Nintendo DS.
The battlefield: Japan.
The prize for winning: The heart and minds of children across the globe.
Well, not really, but almost. 2004 is now behind us, and now we are capable of comparing the 2004 sales of the world's two newest handheld gaming devices, the DS and PSP.
The DS Final Sales - 1,286,007 Units
The PSP Final Sales - 352,295 Units
Remember kids, these comparisons are only for Japan. However, using these numbers, we can reach two obvious conclusions. 1) The PSP is facing an uphill battle. And, 2) Nintendo's handheld future is very, very bright.
