Maybe when Black 2 and White 2 launches or Vita's price drops. Whichever's first.

Great library,free online, its a great value for the money and people have been seeing that.

 

OT DQ boosted Wii better than I thought it would, not above 100k but close



smbu2000 on 09 August 2012

3DS still doing pretty well. Europe stayed roughly the same from last week (70k?) Nice HW boost from KH in the U.S.
3DS in Japan is higher than the next closest competitor WW.

Wii Japan is greater than Vita WW!?!
