Thats pretty bad...

But wait until you see the weeks following the Western launch... now that WILL be horrific.

You sound so certain.

Maybe Sony will get it right and ship majority of WiFi rather than the not so needed 3G/WiFi model, which is clearly a mistake they made in Japan if you go by all the reports and data we have recieved thus far.

I wouldn't be astonished to find that Sony are pushing the 3G version more than the other. It's more expensive, thus they'll get closer to profit. They wouldn't want the cheaper version with heavier losses to succeed. And that'll probably stay that way for a while.

My money is the low numbers are due to the wifi model being nearly sold out and memory cards being completely sold out.



The Vita is doomed!! lol

Hm, huge drop for Vita. :/ But, I guess it kinda makes sense when you look at the big picture.
The PSP is still around and has a gazillion of games that people wants.
The 3DS is on fire with the 3M combo and there are a couple of other semi-big games available, and it's compatible with the awsome DS library.
Then you have the more expensive Vita, with a line-up that is decent but severly lacking in the killer app department. You can download PSP games on it though.

great thread. I knew something Sony went bad when I saw so many replies. Vita needs help, it needs games badly, how is Uncharted the big game in Japan Sony. that makes no sense. And that memory card thing is going to hurt them badly.

My thoughts exactly. PSVita needs a real Japanese killer-app (I wonder why they didn't push Gravity Daze, it was perfect for the job). And yes, they should have authorized the re-use of memory sticks. Those new memory cards are a big, big mistake...



Great sales for Wii but PS3 sales are really below my expectations. I understand Vita has shortages and no software similar to the 3DS when it released. PSP sales are still surprisingly high. Mario Kart is doing excellent and I don't think I should really coment on FF13-2...



I'm so excited to see what happens in the west, USA has Uncharted and maybe a COD or GTA and Europe has FIFA as lauch title.



Vita...ouch
