also vita numers are actually up with no software releases lol maybe its finally picking up some sales? CoD could help it alot along side all starts

The "dead" Wii has higher sales than Vita ... I think that says it all.

After the first few CoD-Vita reviews I don't think that this game will boost sales, the boost will even be lower than Liberation-Vita boost.


people are so pessimistic on this site

In this case it's because the user you quoted is Zimmer101, he runs a 3DS/Wii/Wiiu related fansite and just can't resist to call the vita dead every single time he has the opportunity to. Let me get banned for this, but in my opinion he truly is a Nintendo fanboy (my opinion based on different posts i saw of him, in a german forum). He once tried to say Resident Evil 3D graphics are better than Uncharted Golden Abyss ones.

you can find so much hateboner posts when you google him - for example he gave the xbox arcade an 1/5 stars on amazon because of it's lack of exclusive titles and because it has no hdd. in his review for the vita (3/5) he nearly says in every sentence that the 3DS is better here, better there. if you ask me, this guy is either getting payed or should go to the doctor for his hateboner.


vita bashing happens so much on here if somebody really cared he would have had a heart attack long ago. fanboys can bash all they want i wouldnt care. but i wouldnt want somebody with an avatar like yours to get banned. its scary bro.... well the good kind of scary... i guess? its just..... lets say unique


What is the name of the site this guy runs?


you quoted the wrong user, ask Gehirnkrampf. i know nothing about his site

Lbp karting bomba?
55k fw in the US isnt very good is it?
Other than that, we are in the best part of the year for chatz, it was about time!!!

Hard to judge a game like that on FW sales. Was never gonna open to big numbers. All about the legs.

LittleBigPlanet Karting is getting bad reviews.

Vita WW is 7k more than the Wii in the USA. Success?

The 3DS continues to be the dominant force in the handheld arena. It is the greatest handheld ever created and all fans of handheld gaming should own one.

Nice 3DS and 360 numbers, reminds me of the Wii days. Good to see the dead Wii continue to prove wrong and beat the Vita like I predicted and many went against. I should probably bump that thread soon.

If you were to be banned for this then the mods would need to seriously crack down on the Turkish attacks considering threads are made with the only intent being to bash him for what he does outside of this site as well as within it.

I wouldn't worry.

As for the numbers, they look great, but considering VGC and it's incredible overtracking last month in the US I would be very wary of these and not take them as gospel. That is quite a large jump.

I could be wrong, but at this stage of the generation our tracking isn't doing so hot.

I hope i'm wrong though. A healthier industry is good news.

PS3 did alright, I wonder how the rest of the holiday will be for Sony. Great Halo sales for X360 this week also.

The most recent NPD did mention sales picks for the PS3 X360 the DS and 3DS late in the month, but yea we had some huge discrepancies for the US last month.
