With Sony's Price Cut and around 3 games announced for vita from Gamescon, how will affect sales? How many units will this first weeks price cut affect? week after that? No matter wat Vita should at LEAST Double figures, and killzone coming out in less tan 3 weeks as well...

⇔ Last 4 Weeks In US ⇔

5,026⇒ Week Ending July 20th
4,824⇒ Week Ending July 27th
4,708⇒ Week Ending Aug 3rd

Nobody wants to predict??? or os every1 scared to O.o

at least 35,000. All those people complained about the price, so you finally get what you want. Go ahead, buy one.



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch will sell better than Wii U Lifetime Sales by Jan 1st 2018

I always thought lack of compelling software was more an issue.

I think the systems big sellers this fall are Minevraft, Tearaway and Borderlands 2. I think the potential sales all depend on how well sony push those games and when they arrive. I think the week of borderlands 2 will 100k+ if they release a bundle. Minecraft on a portable could make the Vita cool to the youngster but again tehy'll need to market it.

The problem with Minecraft and Borderlands 2 is that they're available on many other platforms so the need to buy a Vita for those games is greatly diminished.

I expect 20k and then a new baseline of 7k

Did sony announced release dates for minecraft and borderlands 2? and I really doubt tearaway will sell better than little big planet vita and that sold poorly

I hope 25k+ one of them will be mine :D

Nope, but i assume they're 2013 dates. Tearaway success will correlate with the other 2 I think. For people who look at Borderlands on Vita and really want it, I think Tearaway (if it reviews wells), will justify them buying the system because its a game they can't play elsewhere. Equally if some gets a Vita for borderlands the 1st title they'll go to afterwards would Tearaway, again depending on its critical acclaim.

Little planet operated within a kind of ecochamber, it didn't have any other titles to catalyse its success.

Also depends on how much they cut the prices of the memory cards.

The fact that they didn't give numbers for that makes me think that it might me a small cut.
