PSP sells 1.1 million in December, says NPD data

Welcome to the NPD results for December of 2007. If you look to your left, you'll see Sony waving and smiling at you, describing their success for the last month of last year. To your right, a pie chart, graph, and wall of text describing the sales figures. We'll condense them into this brochure for you, so you can have a quick reference as we continue our safari.

The PSP performed well in December -- 1.1 million units were shoveled from retailers to consumers. We don't expect this to slow down at all; we've got some huge titles coming our way and the introduction of Skype is icing on the cake (for those of you who want to talk to friends for free from other countries). The PS3 sold 798k units and the PS2 sold 1.2 million units. Total revenue from hardware sales was $714 million, surpassing the competition, supposedly. Sounds like a good month to us.
