All I want for Christmas are some gosh darn Vita numbers, no matter how bad they are.


I wondr wat LTD numbers are. People say its close to 2mil? I dunno

Vita was 1840K LTD through June 2014 (last LTD figure given).
Adding all the months remaining,, I get ~1947K LTD through November 2014.

It may has a shot at 2M LTD in the US this year depending on it's performance in December. Let's hope for it !



Prediction: End of 2015 Hardware sales (as of January 20, 2015)

Wii U: 12.1M | XBO: 19.8M | PS4: 36.0M | 3DS: 58.5M | PSV: 11.7M

1947k. Needs 53k, its doable especially in Dec (though that last year # was not pretty!)

 

Vita Sold WW..... (official #s as of November)

1.95mil: US

0.60mil: UK *Estimate, might be lower.

3.42mil: Japan

5.97mil: Total

Missing Alot of Countries of Course, but those are the biggest markets, especially for Sony^

Let's get real Vita is dead. This Holiday was the death knell for handhelds not Nintendo.

Looks like VGC is fairly close then.

PSV 35,596 (+390%) 1,912,712

Only undertracked by ~35k LTD, not bad... (VGC I mean, Vita's numbers are awful).

360 beat the Wii U.....in Smash month...doomed.


Nintendo made more money than MS Gaming Division.... In Halo month.... DooooooooMeD

Wow this is fun, isnt it?

We don't even know if this is true yet. (likely is but still)

Why do you keep bragging about it tbone? I don't understand,you didn't metion these profit wars before?

It's also silly to talk about gaming division profits as it's meaningless, entire company profits would be make more sense for a discussion surely ...

Apples with oranges?Nintendo is just a gaming company,so the wise is to be compared with the gaming division of the multifarious competitor!

The comparison arrrives at nothing tho???? Looking at whole company profits is more meaningful because it actually has more importance.

Nah, Xbox 360 is 9 years old ... that's ancient (great numbers for a 9 year old system does not mean great numbers for a 2 year old system).

WiiU should be able to beat 360 without any mega exclusive, let alone a huge one (with the added bonus of MK being new).

All I heard all summer was how WIiU was set for a huge holiday because of the Smash - MK tag team and how 360 is dead.

Still I kinda agree with you about the doomed thing. I don't even know what "doomed" really means for WiiU, it's gonna keep selling and Nintendo will keep making game for it. Suppose perhaps murph means sales going forward really won't ever lift.

Don't forget the guy from a couple of months ago that claimed Wii U was going to 'dominate' the holidays and sell over 4m in December alone...

Negative surprise!Why are you doing this ka-pi?Isn't so nice,especially for its style.:p

For example,there were similar exaggerating predictions for Halo mmc and so many others!Why should we rake  them up and if we should?Why  only the nintendo crazy predictions...?

I seem to remember you being on the forefront of calling out certain Xbox fans (or one in particular) for their "failed predictions" during the summer months, why so defensive now?

I will just say that I m doing it when I have been provoked,disparaged and annoyed by the arrogance of any predictor!

I won't continue because I feel that it won't end well!so,peace!
