I still have a really hard time believing the Vita numbers in Europe.

NA & EU numbers for PS devices have always been pretty similar.

PS1 was about 5% higher in NA, PS2 was about 3% higher in EU, PS3 was about 17% higher in EU, PSP was about 12% higher in EU.

Somehow Vita is 100% higher in EU??? I dont believe it.

It's not like this a a new phenomenon. The NA/Europe Vita #'s disparity has been consistant over the last few years. And, again, the near total lack of availibilty in NA only makes it more striking.

Im not talking about just this week, i have doubted their Vita numbers for years.

Yes, I realize it's not just from this week. I don't know any more than you do about WTF is actually going on. VGC is all we have, and I can't think of a time that this site was GROSSLY wrong. The numbers here, even at their worst, are correct to high percentiles for the most part. Ignore the fact I misspelt consistent.

maybe it's the highly playable FIFA on the go for the first time?  I mean it was on PSP but without dual analog not really as playable.

PS4 on that road to 100 Million.

Sorry it took so long to reply.

But that cant be the answer, take a look at the FIFA sales on Vita in Europe, they averaged 300k over 4 titles.

The last FIFA game to release on Vita was in 2014 so clearly they didnt sell enough to contiue releasing them.
