I really hope with SS, the VITA can get more sales. The demo is really good.

I know the WiiU is doing like crap, but I only care about the Vita, which is doing worst lol. Sony needs to do something!!!

Good PS3 number :)


There's nothing Sony can do in the West for the Vita. It's done. Soul Sacrifice isn't even going to sell half of Call of Duty or Assassin's Creed.


Sadly, I agree with you.

Still see them trying for 1 last price drop in the west  at Killzone launch (which is a terrible time).

Sony needs to stop being an idiot, and use their AAA studios to develop games for it.   they should have a team in each big studio to develop exclusively for the VITA.

EDIT: If they are not going to support then WTF they release the device in the first place.....ARGH RAGEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

I'm not sure if the Wii will even outsell the PS1.

Like I said, no concrete releases and Nintendo's complete ignorance towards it.

Wii U most likely overtracked in EU too, (I'm curious to see why Cream and sugar said hunter and lego fan would be sad)

So, I wonder what the people who said "Wii U gets SW and starts selling" has to say now considering it sold an average of 13.4k a week in US.


It's in a similar boat to the Vita -- people just don't want the hardware.

Though the Wii U should have a decent spike this fall with a price cut + Mario Kart U + holiday rush. It's gonna be another GameCube for Nintendo though.

They can't. They are not in the position to.

Nintendo likely moved nearly all of WiiU development to 3DS 2011 when sales were bad.

Sony needs PS4 to succeed. Like NEEDS PS4 to succeed. They are sacrificing Vita for PS4. September price cut won't cut it.(I'm not even sure they will bother to cut the price.They must realize doing so against Pokemon and GTA5 won't do anything, not to mention new consoles)

Vita needed Monster Hunter. If anything you should blame Capcom for killing it.

So 3DS outsold PS3

I agree except I think it will sell better than the GC.

OT: This makes the Wii U require to sell 112k a week starting right now in order to reach the goals some people have

Yeah, it looks that way.  And considering all I have seen of the PS4, I think Sony will succeed in that. But if they were going to sacrifice the VITA, then why release it in the first place?
