PSP Go will have the worst first-day sales of all time.

Everywhere you look, the stories are the same, the gamers are the same, the outlook is the same: PSP Go will sell like crap at first.

I'll admit, it's the first PSP I'm actually interested in personally, and the system is beginning to garner enough decent games to warrant a purchase (bearing in mind I'm a total sheep). That said, £225 / $250 is too much, especially when it's beginning to feel dated, and the PS3 is a mere £50 / $50 more.

What do you guys think?

not worst sales of all time, but i don't expect it to do great. i think gt5 bundle will definitely help, but 250 is a ridiculous price, i can get a ps3 for the same price in the uk!. if it get's down to the £100 mark i may become interested, but right now i have no desire to update my psp 1000 anytime soon.

Possibly. It certainlly overpriced, I could buy an Xbox 360 for that. Also it's a very risky move making it download only. Alot of people won't be comfortable with it.

I wanted what whoever priced the psp go was smokin! who in gods name prices an updated system more than the BETTER counterpart, and dont tell the consumer what plans they have to play the old games that they bought on umd on the new system.

Well the price is really low, but a lot may buy it, considering it's more portable and dosen't use UMD's.

Just have to wait and find out.

But the PSP Go isn't supposed to be a high-volume retail monster, it's glorified market research for the PSP2 and the viability of DD in the portable market.

Sony needs to learn to pull a nintendo. 100 dolla price tag, Smaller Size, and a accelaromter!

I'm not too confident with the GO myself.

I dont like the idea of the GO being $50 cheaper than a whole PS3 system.

However, the GT deal is a very smart move.

Exactly what I was thinking. I'll buy it when the price hits $150 and when I see how much they are going to be charging for downloadable games. IMO if they are getting rid of the costs of putting the games on UMD's, shipping them, and other expenses, the games better not cost more than $30.

Worst ever? No. Bigger risk than the PS3 price point on launch. Yup, IMO. When the 3000 is selling for $169 US, I don't see any point of getting a Go. Unless between now and launch they provide a system seller, and I don't think GT is a system-seller, though many people want it. I may just pre-order GT5 to get it instead.

Worst than Virtual Boy

psp sales: 20000

psp go sales: 7 ( they brought it by mistake)

not gonna happen since Gran Turismo Portable is releasing with the PSP go. ReaperV7

i'd be more interested to see if GT Mobile's piracy downloads rival its actual retail purchases (like how Sony said Resistance downloads were alarming close to the sales)
