I never could get into MH, think I'll give it another go with the amount of units it's shipping!

MGS4 really needs to come out to boost those PS3 numbers :laugh: At least the PS2 isn't outselling it anymore, but they're hardly numbers to boast about.

Yeah PSP has been doing really good in Japan since they launched the Slim model. It surprised me that it's doing this well since it wasn't a huge revision, you can barely tell the difference just by looking at them. PSP was doing around the 20k mark before the Slim launched. Maybe they like the TV-out function.

Nintendo keeps owning the Software side of the charts. I don't see anything changing, you get 1 maybe 2 PSP games in there for a bit, or hell even a 360/PS3 game once in a while, but it's all NDS and Wii.

I suppose if you have a PS3, the PSP Slim is essentially a portable media center (that you can plug into the TV)

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.
