No, Vita's sales are much lower when you align the two so far and take a couple of factors into consideration:
The Vita launched the week of Dec 12-18 in Japan, putting it on the market for about 3 1/2 months now and totaling 1.7m WW.
The 3DS in its first 3 1/2 months, at the same price, with far less games, and without the benefit of the holiday season in Japan amassed around 3m WW.
OT: As far as what Vita will sell this year, I'd rather be fair and wait until after E3 when we know more (games, possible price drop). Based on just what we know right now at $249, well, I'd rather not speculate since it wouldn't be much...
