Sony crows about PSPgo sales

But still some retail hurdles to overcome for its digital distribution model

Sony has claimed that its PSPgo has sold more than it had expected at this early stage in its lifecycle.

This is despite the company's controversial decision to ditch UMD disc functionality in favour of purely digital content distribution, leading some to tout PSPgo as a competitor to iPod Touch.

“We are over-forecast on what we thought we'd be selling on PSP Go, so we've been very pleased,” Sony America’s PlayStation marketing boss John Koller told GamePro.

Koller went on to say that retail’s attitude towards the machine has been a complication, but one that Sony intends to overcome in 2010 by ensuring that new PSP titles are available on PSN at the same time they arrive at detail.
