It got a boost from a price drop. The boost is biggest in the first week but die off to increase the average weekly sales by a small margin. It will drop too low next week. I've heard a few fairly big games are going to be released but I think the boost from them will be minimal.


It could happen but I don't think it will.

Next week is irrelevant. He's talking about this week, week 2 of the price cut.


I was talking about the drop off from the price drop. Your point?

You're off-topic. That's the point.

How so? The sales increased because of the price drop, that's how this topic came about because it put the vita close to the 360's sales. Either you're misunderstanding what I'm talking about or you're just overreacting to what I said.

The thing is, you just fail to understand that Vita sold more in Japan in the second week after the cut than in the first week. Hence, so far - no drop off to talk about.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

considering VGC is massively undertracking 360's (and Ps3's even more so) weekly US sales the answer is no

Well for that matter the Vita itself is being under tracked by a huge margin in the States. I mean in Feb it did about 36k in the States but VGChartz has tracked only about 24k units.



Conegamer on 16 March 2013

Well with the undertracking of the 360, no way sadly.

But with actual VGC numbers for this week? Possibly. If they ever come up!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Week 2 of the prive cut had Vita sales increase over Week 1. This is the week we're talkin about, Week 1. Whether sales drop off on Week 3 is irrelevant.

The question in this thread is if Vita can outsell the 360 on Week 2 of the price cut.
