I actually had an argument with a Vita fanboy on youtube about this subject last night lol. He was saying Vita outsells consistently week on week. Now if you were to look this year so far you would get that impression and predictably he cherry picked the last 5 weeks or so as evidence he was right . So I took a quick look and found 6 weeks from 2013, it was the last 6 weeks in the year, and Wii U outsold Vita all 6 weeks. See how easy is it to make yourself look right. When I get time I'm going to go through every week since Wii U and see which of the two "doomed" systems wins the title of best selling :P.

Wasn't the Wii U meant to outsell WW Vita sales in like March 2012 though? :P

Picking specific weeks is petty, but overall so far Vita has had a very unexpected surge in Japan. Whilst Sony are incapable of turning that into a boost in the West though, Wii U is pretty much guaranteed to outsell the Vita overall for the most part this year IMO though.

I do hope Mario Kart gives Wii U a massive boost. My copy arrived today, but I'm holding off til Saturday for playing it as I'm having a Mario Kart party :D

I think some people thought that but, realisticly it wasn't going to happen given how long Vita have been out by that point and the fact every new console seems to come out of the gate and have good sales at first and  then crash to extreme low sales, the PS4 being exception since it has had stable after its launch.

It is pretty petty to pick specific weeks, but this person keep on insisting he was right that Vita has consistenly outsold Wii U no matter how times he was told he had no proof. I always thought Sony could it improve Vita in Japan because that market cares for handhelds more than any other market and there are a lot of Japanses sepcific games that Vita gets that help it.

I hope Wii U gets a good boost too, and we will see what happens. Enjoy your party sounds like fun ;D.
