3DS- 13.55-18.43mil.

Two birds, one stone.

Comparing this thread to the 3DS 2013 sales thread shows that some people believe the Vita will outsell the 3DS next year.

well, thats the few sony fanboys thats still dellusional. no way is it going to ouperform the 3ds, it probably never will. if they believe itll outsell the 3ds its only hopefull thinking.

i think vita will have a better year than this one, for sure. itll sell 4m at bare minimum, maybe 5m, but with a decent price cut and some good games i think itll sell 6-7m units next year...



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

4-5m without a pricecut, voted for 7-8m since I'm expecting it to get cheaper by the middle of the year.

Vita shipment were 2.2m end June 2012.  VGC has it at 2.4m sold through at that point.  That has to be at least 300k overtracked at the end of June.

Wasn't it adjusted straight after? Didn't it also have to be adjusted up straight after Black Friday?


well clearly not as what i said is still the case. 

shipped 2.2m, sold 2.4m

how does that work?

No idea. People buying straight from Sony?

Just thought they would have adjusted 6 month old numbers.

So even with a price drop and for memory price drop and a better library not over 8mil+?

I have no idea what kind of sales a price drop pull off. If people aren't buying a Vita now, its because there aren't enough compelling games.....a price drop is only a temporary fix.(Just ask Nintendo)

If a price drop is timed with a steady release of high profile, high quality games, then its possible for it to blow away my optimisic 7.2m prediction.

I voted 4 mil+. I can't see it doing much better than 2012 unless it gets a price drop. Which because of the consoles price and Sony's current financial problem there is really no room for it. It will have a better year, but still, not a great one.

I think Vita definitely needs a price drop, but Sony can't afford it. So how can they do it? Vita redesign +relaunc. It's the only way. PS4 is coming up soon as well and Vita needs to be taken off life-support.

@Vgking

Thats what i was thinking , Games like God of War, Uncharted 2, and a GTA game with a $50 price cut and free or cheaper memory psv should sell over 7mil IMO.

As of now people are turned off about price but thats not the only thing like you said its about games. 3DS at the same price point did alot better and vita did what they did (pre-price cut) all year(well close to it).

It'll be hard but sony needs to meet the standards of everyone's wallet and quality of games.

@VGking

Your right ps4 coming too. They need some type of miracle to switch around vita's fate.
A relaunch/redesign will help and discontinue the 299.99 model! i know ovr 10people that own a vita nevr wanted that model!
