It won't be a good sign if Sony isn't able to sell a lot of software with the Vita early on. Their main problem in the 7th generation (with both the PSP and the PS3's first couple years) was the inability to move games. While the 3DS struggled at first, it had some big launch games (such as Layton) and certainly hasn't struggled to push its biggest titles. Hopefully a title likes Hot Shots Golf has consistent sales and can keep a presence on the Japanese charts going into 2012.


Unfortunatley this could be the start of the end for VGChartz, at launch all the games have a lower RRP on PSN than in the shop and there all available on PSN no issue of stock supplies running short in local stores, so i would expect alot of people to be buying there software that way, which VGC will never be able to track accuratley. And i fully expect Sony and MS to follow this model with there next consoles.

So expect Vita hardware to break conventional rules for hardware sales being connected to software sales from physical stores. 

True, VGChartz will have to work something out to have an approximate of those numbers too.
