Another week, another 5k for Vita in NA. It's been the same for the last two months - VGC says 5k, NPD says 8k... Safe to say it's the same story this week.

Also, this Wii U thingy outselling Vita in Europe? I find it very hard to believe. There is no hope for Wii U until the Christmas window starts.


Damn, Sony better bring the price cut to the West fast and put some cash into marketing Soul Sacrifice here. This game has the potential to move a bunch of consoles and sell really decent, but so far the only thing Sony did was the awesome demo, which sold me on the game (already pre-ordered), even though I was really hesitant about it, but this can only affect people who already own the console and not potential hardware buyers.

Why is it so hard to believe? This is the VITA we're talking about, not PS3 or something.. Wii U at least has Monster Hunter and NSMB U. What does Vita have to bring in sales?

Because http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4979143 is still the case. I think it's ridiculous at this point, that there is not a single store in my city that has a Wii U in stock. I haven't even seen a Wii U or a Wii U box in my entire life! On the other hand you can get a Vita in every store, you can play a demo unit, you get games translated into our language... This shows the attitude Nintendo and Sony has to the European market. If you ignore the market, you won't sell your product and you surely won't sell anything, if you don't even put it on the shelves xD
