Didn't you just say your "Vita dead in 2013" prediction has failed? That's not 100% accuracy in my book.

Sony has already stated that it aims for the long term of its platforms. You're being foolish predicting Sony will discontinue the Vita any earlier than 5-6 years in market. I predict 2015 will be one of Vita's best years, that's when Sony will be able to hit a sweetspot with its pricing and game library.

PSP-Go would like a word with you.

General idea that Vita would flop hard and could not compete is what I was going with on that always right part. But I can see you're point.

The Go is just a gimmick model of the PSP using leftover phone parts at the end of it's life much like the GBA Micro, plays all the same games. If the Go was a new system for new software, then I'd concede you might have a point.

 

For the record I'd guestimate 15 - 30 million lifetime. Lots of things, especially after the PS4 launch is finally out of the way, can happen, but generally I see above 40 million as an impossibility.
