Damn if only that PS Vita YOY comparison could be the same in the holiday periode (15k vs 3k)

next week is the real test. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=191035&page=1

Vita is up currently up 216k YoY but will shrink starting next week. Vita has i think a new color on Nov 13th + PSN end of November. Lets see how well it can stack up to last year.

Edit: I really thought this year 3ds+vita would be close. I mean the support for vita is very strong especially compared to last year. I think my early prediction was about 1.9m-2.0m Vita and 2.6m-2.8m 3ds. I also believed that vita>3ds in 2015 (but close) since a successor would maybe come but n3ds might put that on hold lol

I don't see week 41 in your thread. Poeple buy the 3DS even without software release( US and EU) it is realy difficult to tell if the vita can be over the 3DS YOY in Japan because 3DS sells well even without big software release, and now that the New 3ds is advertising as a new handheld, 3ds will be bigger in 2015 than 2014 if they don't separate the 2 handheld. I think we need to make a thread about the fact that 3ds and n3ds sales will be combine although it is a new handheld( because it has exclusives)
