The new Sony handheld PSPgo is seeing slow sales in Australia, with Michael Ephraim, managing director of Sony Computer Entertainment Australia confirming that only about 1000 units sold in the first week of availability.
The numbers are unsurprising given the high amount of criticisms toward the device and especially its high price, which is AUD 450 in Australia, which is about $415 USD.
"Clearly we haven't done massive numbers but it's not something that we're concerned about ... because there are still some issues that we need to work through," continued Ephraim.
The low numbers can also be attributed to EB Games decision to not stock the console, a sentiment shared by a few other retailers.
