According to market data provided by Famitsu parent Enterbrain, the PSPgo sold 28,275 units on its first day. A respectable figure despite the higher price tag, but looking back, both the DSi and PSP-3000 mustered up far more sales in the same timeframe. Then again, the go was released on a Sunday, which is considered extremely rare for a hardware launch in Japan. Before passing final judgment we’ll have to wait for first week sales to see how the go stacks up against its predecessors in terms of popularity.
