Very pleased with those Vita numbers. It is quite nice to see it get boosted again this week, because yeah, there have been a few posts lingering around the past few weeks that have been like "It'll be back below 20k next week" and that has repeatedly fail to happen. And I wouldn't bet on it happening next week either. I'm guessing it'll maybe drop back down to last week's numbers (Muramasa/Holy Sorcery Story will both be bigger than steins;gate, but they're obviously not as big as One Piece).

200k in a month anyway. I mean, it could always be better, but considering the catatonic state it was in before I find it very impressive.

Fairly pleased with OPPW2 on Vita too. Considering it is a sequel and most of the fanbase would've been on PS3; and given the drop in people buying the sequel generally, I think about a sixth of the total sales is pretty good. And it bodes well for the other PS3/PSV games we have incoming (Gundam Breaker is the one I have in mind right now).

Atelier Meruru Plus opens a little bit down on Totori Plus, which is a shame, although oddly follows exactly the same trend the games had on PS3.

Pro Baseball Spirits 2013 Vita opening about 7k up on last year's version, which is progress I guess. Migrating some of the PSP crowd hopefully.

Disgaea's opening is down a fair bit. Dead or Alive 5 Plus opening lower than I hoped, though (not quite the bomba that NGS2+ was; but lower than the 360 version in Japan) and Soul Sacrifice not having the legs that I had hoped for either. Kind of disappointing. Sword Art dropping like an absolute rock as well, which was pretty predictable given the horrible word of mouth it has been getting.

For the rest of the chart, though, nice opening for Luigi (although a little lower than I expected) and poor opening for One Piece (although still a decent number). Weird to see that neither of these really did anything for hardware, though (small boosts, but nothing substantial).

I wonder what boosted Wii-U hardware.
