So you think it will be up YoY?
I predicted 3.5M for PS Vita in 2015, you can call me crazy but I believe in it! ^^

Wanna do a bet. I think that it will actually sell below 2 million since it's already selling less than in 2014 and there are not worthwile exclusives which could push sales.
KBG29 said: Sony really needs to revamp the Vita. The CPU and GPU are still great, but it needs at least 3GB of RAM, 64GB internal storage, a 1080p screen, and the battery life of the Xperia Z3 phones. If they were to put out a 4G Playstation Phone on AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile, they would sell PSV current lifetime sales in less than 12 months in the US alone. There is a massive amount of room in the mobile market for a Playstation or Nintendo Gaming Phone, and all of the tech to do it is available for very little. The network speed has hit the point were mobile multiplayer gaming, remote play, and PS Now like services are possible. With a Playstation Vita phone, Sony would easily sell enough units, and have a big enough market share that everybody would want a piece of the pie. They need to act fast though, because this advantage they have over everyone else is not going to last for long. This is there last chance to get there own phones, on , there own OS, and capture a sustainable piece of the mobile market share. I really hope Kaz decides to go through with the plans to sell off Xperia or just merges the group with Playstation, as Playstation Mobile Gaming and Communications. |
I honestly don't understand what the big deal is.
Make a unit like the vita, with better everything, 4g, and able to take calls. Price it at 400$ or 100$ with a 2 year contract. Comes with ps+ for 2 years.
59.99 a month.
I have a trade in coming up on my phone. I would do that in a heartbeat.
All the flexibility of my phone but as a handheld? I don't see what's taking so long.

do sony not provide shipment numbers for the vita?
They always fudged them in with the PSP and haven't announced any milestones. Will be interesting to see if they announce 10m this year as that'll give us an indication how close Europe and Rest of World's estimations are to date for the system.
Week 3 has been updated (look at the start post)!
