2月3日，日本电子和娱乐巨头索尼公司宣布将于3月24日在北美发布其新开发的便携式游戏机（PSP），并将在第一周内上架100万台。据悉，索尼的目标是在3月31号前实现全球发货300万台。外电报道如下：Sony Corp said Thursday it will release the PlayStation Portable in North America on March 24 and have 1 million units ready for sale in the first week.
The PSP machine, a challenger to Nintendo Co.'s long-standing grip on the handheld video gaming market, will be sold as a "value pack" for $250 in the United States and for $300 Canadian dollars. It will include numerous accessories and - for the first million sold - a copy of the "Spider-Man 2" movie on the new Universal Media Disc format that Sony designed for the PSP.
Sony said it has already shipped 800,000 PSPs in Japan, where it went on sale on Dec. 12 for about $190.
PSP是PlayStation Portable的缩写，意为“便携式游戏机”，是索尼公司开发的一种新型的手持游戏设备，目前其内存芯片由全球顶级存储芯片制造商三星电子提供。PSP具有多媒体性能，可以利用UMD格式的光盘或记忆棒播放数码音乐、电影并显示照片，它将挑战任天堂在手持视频游戏机市场长期的统治地位。索尼去年12月12日在日本首次发布了PSP，目前在日本的发货量已经达到80万台。
