Are we still in 2012? Oh wait no. Actual reality suggests Vita is picking up in Japan.

Sorry to tell you this, but the Vita is still doing poorly in Japan.  The pricecut did make a higher low for the Vita's weekly sales, but without the proper games it wont make it far before numbers go back down to previous numbers.

It's certainly not 3DS levels, but I think Vita has hit "escape velocity" as the UK government would say. PSP/Vita dual releases now sell better on Vita, Marvelous have increased their projections due to strong Vita sales and it's getting regular announcements in Japan.

It don't think it'll ever hit the peaks of the PSP let alone DS, but I think it's got a sustainable market in Japan now. The West on the otherhand is a completely different story.
