Prediction: The PS Vita will sell under 20m units

"My prediction is based of the fact that I think the PS Vita will struggle to find relevance in today's market, as the boundary between the smartphone market and the handheld gaming market becomes more occluded by the day. Due to this I think it'll continue to struggle sales-wise and it will subsequently be discontinued in the not-so-distant future."

But the 3DS just broke records with Its sales. The Dedicated gaming market still exists, and it may have shrunk but I'd guess this gen total sales will end around 100-130m (PSV+3DS), which is still fairly big. The problem is Sony hasn't managed to convince many people to get a Vita over a 3DS. Never forget that Japanese gamers prefer handhelds over consoles.

This past week the Vita has recieved a massive marketing push in the UK, the new TV spots have aired on during the x-factor ( biggest audience you could want), so we'll see how much that will help when European HW sales get released.
