This means what we all expected: The Vita is not predicted to sell well.


"Buy two, get one"

I really hope you meant "buy two for the price of one"

So by that definition. Retailers must have expected the 3DS to fail at launch too then. I remember seeing many stores doing a buy two, get one at the start.

Dear God...

I knew someone would throw that one at me but no, this is not even comparable. Amazon, Gamestop and Target are three concrete examples of great retailers trying to get this thing off their shelves. Now, please tell me which stores you remember doing this for the 3DS at launch.

And no, that's not a definition. It's an analysis.

Walmart, Gamestop, Amazon, Bestbuy. Also it wasn't throwing it in your face. It's a good tactic to do. Word needs to spread about the hardware and software at launch. What better way to do it than offer an incentive to customers to buy more software?
