Too think I used to be a fanboy... It's so embarassing to see posts like
yours.

You know the PSP will perform better when the user base grows so what do
you think you'll gain with your useless addition to your subject line?

There are fanboys, there are insecure fanboys and then there's Todd. The
only thing he enjoys more than licking a kangaroo's sweaty testicles and
crying about "American style" games is trying to defend Nintendo's
ever-loosening grip on markets it used to reign supreme over.

It doesn't take a genius to note that Metal Gear Solid 3 is the top-selling
game in Japan, and Metal Gear Acid was only on sale for three days when
these numbers were compiled. Gee, I wonder if its sales will climb over the
coming weeks? The Dynasty Warriors PSP game was also only on sale for three
days and it sold 56,000 copies and made it into the top 10.

I love my DS, but to naively think that the PSP is not going to do well in
the country where PS2 is king is stupid even for a fanboy of Todd's blind
devotion.
