Vita will "win," despite selling massively less. We're talking about under 3 vs over 10 million sales necessary to reach the appropriate numbers. The Vita won't be doing great, but it has a bit more life left than a lot of people are saying.

Seeing how 3DS needs 10.8m and Vita needs 2.3m, a little math will show us that 3DS needs to sell > 4.7 times PSV sales from now until 2013 for it to "win". This week alone, the ratio is more like 7:1 even without NSMB2 in the west and without 3DS XL in the US. Still, starting from September, Vita sales will improve when the games start rolling and I expect it to be close in the end (1 or 2 weeks difference).

OOOPS! I meant 6:1
