Agreed. We can't really draw anything from this, but they'd have to say something if only for PR reasons.

3DS pricecut happend in summer, MK7 released in december (SM 3D Land debuted in the beginning of november). During pricecut week 3DS received Super Pokemon Scrumble with sales of 80-90K (lower than Kagura for Vita, nothing special).

After all, it's Sony's problem that system isn't having anything as big in its 2nd year on the market.Pretty pathetic.

Lower than I expected, but perhaps they did not have that much left in the the channel.

Like people have already said, even if the sales for this week are good I'm more worried about the following weeks after it. If it drops off again back to how it was selling before the price-cut I don't know what more Sony can do.
It really saddens me to see this system underperforming in the sales charts like it has been doing, such a fantastic piece of hardware with a good range of games out for it.

For one of the models was a 30%, just like the one for 3DS.

Unfortunately for you I think Wii U will pick up much quicker than that and second are we talking about PS Vita here or not. I may be a Nintendo fan boy but i have never mentioned WIi U or 3DS in my answer...

my 75k are just based on what Japan can easily buy and tehy have showed us in more than one occasion for both SOny or Nintendo if the price is more affordable I am assuming that people will want to buy the console. If 44k is a real number and it is not due of sold out we can assume that the interest for Vita is quite little.

@fedfed Now you see first hand the WiiU hate is just from hurt feelings over the Vitas flop. Look at how Pezus and the other Sony fans come in mentioning WiiU lol. Vita has a price cut and gets games and still flops? 3DS price cut came with nothing more and 3DS still did much better. I guess becuz they knew Mario is coming something WiiU has in common with 3DS.

Someone had to say it.

OT: Well, we definitely need to wait for numbers, both from this week and next's. Still, 4 times sounds rather impressive, but then you check the base line, and the total, and ....well, it's not that impressive. Games will be arriving on a constant basis for the next weeks, let's see how HW performs. But, people shouldn't set their expectations too high, and be prepared for dissapointments.

It's a start, but a very disappointing start if you ask me. Anything below 50k is a bad sign. Wasn't phantasy star released the same week?

i hope the trend continues. Sony needs more/stronger software for Vita.
