i'll fess up that i predicted that pre-launch. but in my defense that was also before monster hunter tri-G and 4 was announcement for 3DS. huuuge blow to sony. obviously only software can save the vita now ... wonder if we'll ever see that killer game for vita. now i love sony's first party but there is no denying that their first party doesn't sell as well as nintendo's or MS's. ... bleak days ahead my friend.

I still think it's too early to say that. First 4 weeks rellied on launch lineup which wasn't well received in J.

This week Wipeout 2048 is launching

on next week Tales of Innocence and Sumioni

two weeks from now - Ragnarok Odysey

If this doesn't help weekly sales we well have to sound Doom alarm ;)

well you might as well start sounding the alarm now then ... while all of those are 'good' games none i'd call 'killer'. nintendo has mario and mario kart on the 3DS and likely some off the wall break out coming soon like brain age was for the DS. what will sony bring now that monster hunter is gone (and it's still gone even if 4 is multiplat)? COD might be a killer app (i have my doubts) but that will only be in the west even if it is.

At this point of life of a console nearly everything should be generating some sales interest. And by sales interest i mean keeping it at 15-20k and not dropping to 4 digits numbers.

oh, well if that's the bar we have set for it ... actually no, i'm predicting sub 10k for at least one week in japan.

Well . I think sony messed up when they refused to announce it earlier then they did
they kept putting it off saying one wasn't coming when in reality it really was!

poor planning . and yea its that easy to create a fiasco like that in the handheld market against Nintendo make no mistake about it.

you give Nintendo the time of day to one up you in the market. its like nascar . if you give a driver as good as Jeff gordon a free 1 lap ahead advantage hes going to exploit that . if a caution did not waive

same theory here if Nintendo don't mess up or correct any mistakes before the time arrives.

your in trouble. its that simple

there has been enough competitors that have failed to master the important things a handheld must have .
1 is good battery life -Nintendo edged out Sony on this one according to an article i found here on this site
2 exclusive good well known games. -Sony released a few new IP's but again do they work . they have to or this is not going to pan out well .
3 pricing. sure the bare price of the vita was the same as 3 DS launch price .for wifi-only model . but
as soon as they announced that you needed a memory card to boot a game people had to account for that. and since Nintendo had time to spare just like I explained earlier Sony gave Nintendo that advantage . --they cut the price . got the games needed .

if Vita comes out with what it got and Sony doesn't announce titles for it quick. just like Nintendo did . to fix the situation it's not guaranteed to get better

all lies in the hands of Sony right now give it some time. but in japan . time is a ticking
in the US lets wait

Nintendo can just throw a lightning, followed by a red shell and finish off with a blue shell. Then you'll fall off the cliff from that finishing blow and all your 10 coins disappeared.
