I guess LBP Vita hasn't come out in USA yet, since it made it onto the UK chart and I thought USA was more into the Vita than us

It had come out, but this chart is too old, we'll have to wait till next week. Releases on the 25th in NA. It has 33K pre-orders so it should do pretty well in the US, possibly give it a small HW boost.

Ah, kk - those numbers sound pretty promising

You do know that LBP Vita is freely available in all stores now in the UK and US. Street date was broken by a few and Sony officially gave go ahead to all other stores to release early.

The US numbers haven't been tracked then, because it would at least be on 33K.

Next week PS3 will do great in europe, but I don't think RE6 is gonna give a huge boost Japan...

Borderlands 2 is a bit undertracked on 360

Who lbp vita do compared to the other game in the serie is UK?
And in the UK chart LBP Vita was in the chart 2 time



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

How did xbox boost up like that? Only borderlands 2 came out, and that was a multiplatform game



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

watch what happens to the 360 when COD, another mutiplat comes out and for the PS3 when FIFA another multiplat game comes out (admittedly skewed by the new slim).

Fair enough with black ops 2 (although it will shift both systems off the shelves probably) but halo 4 won't have the same effect on hardware, as it comes out at roughly same time. Halo 4 should of come out now really.

Both games have specific 360 SKUs though.

we should at leat compare it with LBP psp i don`t know in Europe but in america LBP vita has 2 tome more pre order then the first week in america.

I don`t think it will be a failure

Don't you think Xbox would do even better if the 2 games, had a few weeks between them, rather than a couple of days?

Anyway, the Halo 4 bundle looks sweet

Wow, an old console like XB360 still has a lot of life inside, look at what Borderlands 2 did.
PS3 decent, considering that is the week immediately before Super Slim launch.
Vita ouch! But LBPV launch was after the week ending 22 September, let's whait and see what it will do to sales.
Wii and PSP on the sunset boulevard, but they should still be able to have their last good Xmas. DS instead won't, the price difference with 3DS is too small to support the older declining portable, unless they do crazy offers for BF and Xmas.
