The whole problem is that in the end of the year Vita will add 450k to that number (2011 Total sales) and PSP some 350k more
I won't do the math, but I think PSP + Vita will be at least 40% down from last year... that's terrible, even more taking into account Vita had only 3 weeks of sales in 2011!)... in a way it's going to be:
55 weeks (52 for PSP + 3 for PSV) in 2011 vs 104 weeks (52 for each) in 2012 and still 40% down.
This is one of the most ridiculous numbers I ever seen in here. SCEJ did the crappiest job possible.
