Very nice 3ds numbers. Ps3 and psp still going along well. Vita now needs a price cut in Japan, I've finally resigned to it :/

What took so long?

Well when persona 4 and gravity rush launched I thought that all the console needs is good quality games to be released. Clearly it did stimulate sales in that week but it never really sustained them. The next big release for vita is hatsuna miku and until then there's nothing else on the horizon meaning its weekly sales will just drift along at around 7-10k which isn't good enough. In the mean time the 3ds is getting super mario brothers, animal crossing and the 3ds XL, which will just keep giving Japan more reasons to choose a 3ds over a vita. 3ds is also getting the next monster hunter and the vita isn't.. It needs a price cut now to stay relevant.
