You are right the sales are undeniably bad. I blame PSP. However you should talk about Wii U as well :). Just wondering what was the lowest vita Japan week? And does anyone think Wii U can go lower then that?


This is actually what's hurting the Vita the most as long as PSP is still having ton of games. These people will not upgrade to Vita.

Well if  3DS does 150m like DS then it gets 86%. Then vita gets like 25m sales! Nothing like PSP vs DS though.  PSP about 33% and DS 67%.

So Vita needs to get 19% more Marketshare to do as well as PSP (relatively).

Absolutely atrocious and during holiday season as well. Though it does not affect Japan as much it is still better then sales in Q3. I think Wii U has a chance at reaching that, because well it is a home console and it has very little for releases for it. Not only that I do not see very many titles that appeal to the japanese audience. I am hoping after Pikmin 3 the console sees very good sales (relatively).

Yeah, I think that might be the week before the white model launched or something. It was much higher the next week. So that 4k number is a little artificially low. Still, it has fallen below 6k a couple of other times, and under 7k a lot.

If the Wii U hasn't dropped that low yet, I don't think it ever will. Even in the post-GW slump it's at nearly 8k. It's no consolation though, since that's terrible enough. But I don't think we'll see sub-4k sales unless there's a huge price cut or something.

I am thinking instead of price cut that Nintendo will change the Wii U SKUS. So it might have a week like that. Since what I am hearing is that the day one patch takes up like 2gb and if you have the 8gb you got barely anything left. More value but same price kind of thing.

Ya that could be likely. Start bundling Nintendo Land with Basic sku and NSMBU with Deluxe

Ouch at Vita. Back to Square one.

Funny how some people only comment when the numbers are bad though. LOL.


me?

Cant be... I comment ALL the time.  I also set my stall very early at less than 20k being terrible for the Vita post price cut.  Never changed it.  Other people keep adjusting down. lol

funnier how some people (not you) only comment when the numbers are good.

That's not true at all. You were completely absent almost the entire time Vita had high sales. Then you came back when it fell 


nope.

I knew you'd say that. That's why I brought proof.

When we consider >30k good sales you were indeed absent most of the time. 3 out of 5 weeks you weren't there to repeat your usual lines. I believe prof keeps a well documented thread about your comments too


LMAO!!! WOW.  you actually did it...

oh my god... thats ... well...wow.  lolol

my god you are predictable.

 

Anyhow... I was there in the second and 4th highest week then.  good.

Sad or not sad, people have been saying it for awhile yet you continue on with what you usually say. (that you were there)


Some people just never admit to being wrong. What's so bad about being wrong sometimes...

 

OT: pretty bad week.



Kresnik on 16 May 2013

Did we ever get Dengeki and the tail-end of Media Create's numbers?

Also, is there any chance you can tidy up the OP's, Spurge? I use these threads for reference quite often and it would be nice of Media Create hardware/software were in one post; Famitsu hardware/software in another and then Dengeki in a third. Thank you :)
