With how systems sell at Christmas, the following is how I would average rate weekly sales in the holiday season:

above 600,000: Great
450,000 to 600,000: Good
300,000 to 450,000: Mediocre
150,000 to 300,000: Bad
Below 150,000: Awful

Now, you should always consider a systems performance based on its own problems and often they can justify the systems performance; after all the PSP, Nintendo DS and Wii are all systems that have a successor on the market, and the Wii U just launched and it will take time to develop the demand and be able to produce the supply necessary to sell really well over the holiday season.

We can explain the performance of the PS-Vita based on a variety of factors but it selling worse than the Nintendo DS should be troubling to Sony and fans of the platform; a system that was replaced almost 2 years ago and is arguably "2 generations behind" in technical capabilities is selling just as well as their fancy new console that (everyone keeps saying) has the best game library for handheld gaming systems.

So, 3DS should be considered "Godlike" then? :P
