Next week Vita is getting Gravity Rush and Metal Gear collection. That's 2 games right there.

This year Japan is getting Soul Sacrifice.

America/Europe are getting Assassin's Creed and Black Ops Declassified. Both are original Vita titles and not ports. Both of these should be system sellers. AC even has a bundle.

Vita just isn't getting a price cut any time soon. But even if it did you wouldn't buy it. You just love hating on everything Sony.

yeah thats probably why i have a Ps3 with over 30 games on it. Not even counting my Ps1 and Ps2 Collection, i´ll buy Vita when i get enought reasons to buy it.

lol.. everyone on vgchartz knows you dont have a PS3. i have a 360 with over 50 games and also the original xbox with another 30 games. do you believe me? anyone can do it on the internet.

I swear everytime I see you comment you are trolling Sony. Just because you own a PS3, doesn't mean you don't prefer the 360(as shown by your avatar).

BTW you should update your games collection on this site. It will give people a better idea of what kind of gamer you are and your preferred platforms.

If it weren't for Japan and the 3DS, then these charts would be depressing.

Come August, though, with NSMB2 and DQX, that'll be a different story.

If WiiU flies off the shelves then MS/Sony will have no choice but to release their new console. That's a fact.

I don't think Sony can really afford to drop the price on the Vita.

I think they're hoping that COD and Assassin's Creed will push units.

Personally I don't think either of those will sell that many units. Most gamers would rather play the console versions instead.

Sony was probably banking on Uncharted to sell a boatload of Vitas.

If Uncharted couldn't sell a ton Vitas, then I highly doubt PSBAR or Sly Cooper Will.

I predict the Vita is going to be vastly overshadowed by Halo 4, the 3DS, and Wii-U this holiday season.

Xbox 360 will dominate holiday season once again.

And i dont see people buying Cod Vita over Black Ops 2 for 360 or lets say Ps3.

Then Forza Horizon wich looks amazing and of course the Beast Halo 4 wich is gonna be insane.

3DS will do great numbers and i dont know about Wii-U seriously im not convinced.

Still dont know why Sony doesnt have any games for Ps3 this holidays since Last os Us isnt 2012 neither is God of War or Beyond. They have those small games but those aint system sellers or big guns while Microsot has Forza Horizon and Halo 4 and Timed Exclusive shit for Black Ops 2 and RE6 Sony doesnt seem to care about Ps3 this holidays, seems they are going all out with Vita and Call of Duty/Assassins Creed exclusives.

1. In America?  Definitely. Worldwide? I say the PS3 will win again this year.
2. They don't have to choose. They are 2 different games. They can buy both. You may not know this, but not every Vita owner also has a PS3. COD will gain a completely different audience on the Vita.(if marketed correctly)
3.  Forza Horizon isn't anything special. Besides Forza 4 just came out last year. Didn't really sell very well. Considering Horizon is a spin-off, it will sell worse.
4. Yup. 3DS will definitely sell way more than Vita. 
5. Sony does have games for PS3. Playstation All-Stars, LBP Karting and Sly are the most notable. Then there's the huge multiplats like Black Ops 2, Assasssin's Creed 3(which gets a PS3 bundle on Day 1), Resident Evil 6 and Medal of Honor...etc. This will be a huge holiday for PS3 and the first holiday for the Vita which should really push the install base.

1 - For what i remember Xbox was 1st Worldwide on holiday season last year, counting everything as a whole of course.

2 - Sure they have to Choose, most Vita owners also own a Ps3 and i do think they will rather play the superior version of the Game.

3 - Forza Horizon looks amazing, sounds amazing and will be the best open world racer/best looking game out there.

"His presence is felt in the intense audio of the E3 demo, a point-to-point race through light countryside traffic. Pulsating electronica blends with a roaring flypast and the guttural growl of the game's (sadly hideous) cover star, the 2012 Dodge Viper. That's the first thing you notice, but it's soon eclipsed by Forza Horizon's sensational graphics. Playground's artists and coders have taken Turn 10's detailed car models and brilliant lighting tech and enhanced them with staggering draw distances and naturalistic time-of-day effects; this could well be one of the best-looking games of this generation."

Please see Eurogamer full preview http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-06-04-forza-horizon-preview-the-open-road-dream

Plus Forza 4 sold well. 2M is pretty damn good and stills selling.

4 - Of course 3Ds is going to sell more, it has Mario and those kind of games.

5 - Yes, they have games and im not saying these games are bad because they might be awesome but they are not Blockbusters tittles that Sony will brag about sales and awards and stuff like that unlike MS with Forza Horizon and Halo 4. But of course they will have those crazy multi plats and i believe once again Call of Duty will move thousands of Ps3s and 360s.


SIGH.

1.  Yeah 360 sold most on the holidays, but what really matters is yearly totals. Anyone can sell millions of something with tons of advertising. The real accomlishment is when you can sell your product without an overload of advertisements.

2. No, they don't have to choose. Black Ops II and Black OPs Declassified are different games. If you are a fan you will buy both. If you only have a Vita, you'll only buy Declassified.

3. That's your opinion and is irrelevant in regards to sales. It's no secret that the racing genre isn't what it used to be.

4. Sure.

5. You are seriously over-rating this franchise. Sure it has great review scores in the 90s but the sales just aren't blockbuster level. How do you know All-Stars or LBP Karting won't win awards? LIttleBigPlanet is a highly rated franchise and its sales are comparable to those of Forza. All-Stars has HUGE potential.

Im sure Microsoft and Sony would release their new console anyway, whether or not the Wii U was flying off the shelf.
