Nobody knows Vita sales, this thing can still come with more 2M from undertracking bc reasons |
They've had the same number of "Holidays" in the West as Vita only actually launched 8 months before the Wii U in the West.
Wii U was also at 3.5m within a couple of months of release. So long term sales have slown down greatly.
As you say though, it's pretty much impossible to figure out if it remains so close simply from there being no official figures for Vita sales. It also no longer gets FIFA and FIFA 15 is pretty much the second best selling Vita game of the last 12 months behind MineCraft outside Japan.
There are a few medium tier exclusives still to hit though such as Digimon (2nd Japanese one). It really does depend how long Sony decide to keep supporting it. I did notice the demo of FIFA 16 actually has a specific section for Vita configuration now. I guess they figured Vita owners will also have a PS4 and play the game in their house rather than on the move.
