I don't understand why he says this 3 months after Christmas.

Not sure what they were expecting from Wonderbook? What does the chartz have it as? I'm too lazy to look.

This guy is always yammering on about stuff.  I don't like him much.

I should hope so, anyway. The amount of advertising they did for Vita over Christmas was insane.

I wonder what their expectations were for Wonderbook. It felt pretty doomed as soon as they announced the word "book" in the title; but I don't think 400k worldwide sales was anything too bad (most of them in Europe, too).

Certainly not bad sales from a Move game, but seeing as this was advertised quite a bit (and unknown salary for JK Rowling) they probably didn't make much if any money from it.
The bundles helped a bit though.

Not just the Vita, but also the Wonderbook.

I saw a lot of both, but definitely more Vita than Wonderbook.

I love him.

Wonderbook has more games coming. This next game actually looks like quality.

When they introduced Wonderbook, I thought that the PS3 does simply not have enough memory for it to be successful. I'm sure a good part of the memory is used up for the driver software so games building on Wonderbook are somewhat meagre. I'd guess that Wonderbook on the PS4 will be something interesting to watch out for, hires cameras and a ton of more memory can make a difference.
