Well, at least Wii-U seems to have found a plateau now. It was looking dangerously like it could dip below 5k in a few more weeks. If it stays at this level, well... doesn't sound like much, but at least it's better than continually plummeting, at least until the software comes.

38k on Media Create for 3DS is pretty shocking for the leading console, too. And I'm not sure Vita has stabilised above 10k really. It's weird, all those weeks we had "JUST WAIT UNTIL NEXT WEEK" posts about the Vita and now I'm the one saying it. But yeah, with no new software until Neptunia in 3 weeks, I can see it going below 10k again.

Software wise, we're seeing all the games with legs hang around. Soul Sacrifice isn't there like I had hoped it would be, but never mind.

Zillions of Enemy X really seemed to underperform. I thought Nippon Ichi restructured a while back to try and avoid making low-selling games like this. Maybe it's time to port Disgaea 4 to Vita. And get the whip cracking on Witch & Hundred Knights.

Oh, and yeah, I agree.  I'm not too sure we'll ever see a highly successful home console in Japan again, and I think PS4 is going to struggle out of the gate.
