Those 6k for Vita seem unbelievable. Are they only tracking the OLED model like before? It only has shipment issues if there isn't enough demand from consumers, but this heavy drop of about 10k from 16k last month is just painful to watch.

I'm not that surprised. There are really no new games for it, snd the last new one was Borderlands in May. And those content with Japanese translations all have a Vita already.

Too bad there is no Madden for Vita anymore, that could have helped some. Same as FIFA bundle will help a little in EU. But not much. Are there any actual announced games for Vita at all, except digital indies?

Well, they'll make a campaign for LBP-Vita with marvel costumes this christmas, there's Murusaki Baby coming in, also Freedom wars soon and we shall see some new Japanese games soon. Also I don't know if FIFA 15 will be on Vita this year, if it does it should help a bit in Europe.

FIFA bundle is already announced.

I don't see Murasaki doing anything, it's just another cutesy/weird digital game that for some reason got put on a physical media.

Freedom Wars is again a game for established Japanese fan-base, doubt it will attract any newcomers.

And is LBP even coming to Vita? That might help a bit, but one game every 6 months is hardly enough to justify a purchase for many.

I mean, Vita had a decent 2013 lineup with Killzone and Tearaway leading the charge, and it still did poorly.

Don't get me wrong, I have a Vita, and I like Japanese games, but it gets boring to play only those. Ultimately, I just quit buying them, and now only turn it on to play a bit of Football Manager and Mahjong...
