PSP Outselling All But DS in UK

Sony has announced that the PSP is on track to outsell every console in the UK except for the Nintendo DS for 2006. That includes the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox 360. While the 360′s numbers aren’t a big surprise considering the US is by far Microsoft’s strongest market, the fact that the PSP has outsold everything else but the DS is pretty remarkable given the juggernaut that PS2 sales have generally been worldwide. PocketGamer had the story.
Is this an anomaly or has the PSP sold well throughout Europe? Are the marketing efforts in the UK any different from what we see in the US? Any ideas from our readers as to why the UK would have such good sales of the PSP relative to the other systems?
