actually, third party 3ds are not selling that good

look at kingdom hearts, it's the worst selling kh game

look at resident evil, should have sold a lot more

the problem is, the 3ds is a nintendo system, people buy it for nintendo games


The third party sales on Vita are absolutely terrible. People don't buy Vitas period, they don't buy them for Sony games or third party games. An absolute slaughterfest that thing has been for software sales. Good thing AC just released.

You can't forget about digital sales. Every Vita game is day one on PSN so this could make up anywhere from 5% to 95% of total sales. Also even ignoring digital sales, Vita games are still selling much better than you think. An extreme example is Rayman Origins. On PSV it sold 144,000 in Europe while on 3DS it sold only 12,000. Launch title or not this 3rd party game did much better on Vita than 3DS. For another example look at Fifa. On Vita it has sold double compared to 3DS. Yeah Vita game sales aren't as amazing as you want, but they are better than you act like they are.
