I have to say; this is extremely childish. Nobody made any outlandish predictions about the Vita just to downplay it later on. People genuinely thought it would do better. Sony fans need to be less paranoid. You guys are getting worse and worse.

Your sarcasm fail, because there were crazy predictions from Sony fans. It wasn't other fans saying that they were going to sell x amounts and then call "aww those are low sales", I really don't have time to dig up all the posts, but right now I have ethomaz "SS will have the biggest FW for PSV" (yes that includes a bigger FW than Miku, and Persona)

And my prediction is in the COMG thread, if you want to check it, real sales exceeded it extraordinarily, and I recognized that, as many others did.

Even Dragon Quest VII only managed to pull off 836k for its first week. 900k is just insanity!

It was halving the sales of that week, and seeing it just below Animal Crossing gave me hope it'd be in the 50-60k range (which still would have been great), so such a hefty fall was a surprise.

That would be one of the easiest bets in the world to go against you.

Lowballing.  Will remain in triple figures for 3 weeks.

3DS should easily clear above 200k again and then only down to 175k after that. Sounds reasonable.

But with games that do not have broad mainstream appeal, you expect a 80% drop and hope for legs afterwards. The "hefty fall" is only due to your ignorance of the market. Animal Crossing is a anolmaly that publishers can only hope to have once. It's incredible how well it's selling, and should never be used as a barometer or example for anything other than Animal Crossing. It's just dumb to justify your claim on a game like Soul Sacrifice which by virtue of itself its content, can never achieve that level of success.

You're right, Sony fans are really paranoid.  I blame EA, UbiSoft, and Amazon.

A few people in this thread have already indicated that they are disappointed with the Soul Sacrifice numbers after revealing expectations that were extremely unlikely and had very little in the way of precedent.  Even established series on the Vita have come nowhere near selling over half the first week total in the second week.  It has nothing to do with being a Sony fan or Nintendo fan, it has to do with being realistic.  

That first sentence is ridiculous. 2 weeks ago was vita pricecut week, an anomaly. 1 week ago was vita beating 3DS yet another anomaly. You expect the same amount of people to come in, when this week is like many other weeks this year? I thought 130 posts in 7 hours was not too bad compared to the 350 in a week.

I actually think this is encouraging for Vita. The Wii U is troubling, but we'll really see overtime as more support and games come in how it really attracts a base... there's just not nearly as much excitement about the new gen as I am accustomed to. The possibility for greater games on newer technology is there, but it remains to be see if developers will capabilitize on it or not.. and I am speaking mainly in terms of gameplay, not necessarily graphics.
