If the Vita gets bundled with the PS4 for 550 or less, tons of people are going to buy it in all regions, including a huge percentage of the people who hate on it.



yea, but he said japan not western market, we dont even kno if ps4 launches 2013 yet, also you dont kno if a bundle is coming, why dont we just hope for a price cut 1st? I mean vita is a handheld first, not a controller, dont kno why every1 thinks ps4 going to boost its sales by a huge margin


Everyone thinks it, because PS4 could possibly more than half the price of the Vita if the rumored $500 bundle is true.  I certainly think that would have a huge effect regardless of remote play factor, which may or may not drive sales much.  Also, if they bundle it in the Western market, they could likely bundle it anywhere they want.  Price of hardware and memory is clearly what is holding the Vita back.  It is a great system otherwise.  I certainly don't regret getting one.



i meant was that would be $150 off a vita, wouldn't sony be losing tons of money? ps4 will boost vita sales but by how much is everybody talking about? thats th question!

My prediction is

180k=Sept
120k=Oct (pokemon comes out, it'll mke hardware sales drop)
230k=Nov (GE2)
350k=Dev

880k, so under a mil! No more than 1mil


You're over egging the September sales. Over 40k a week, a 250% imcrease on now? Why?



arent like 4 of the games in the op coming out sept? also in my head i had killzone, totally forgot its western not eastern



Some really good games there. I'd say around 750k, give or take 50k.

You follow COMG. You tell me if they're big enough to more than double the weekly average.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

 Amnesia: Vita Edition

Phew. Anyway, there's nothing much coming until the end of September with Legend of Heroes really; then Danganronpa should keep a bit of momentum in early October. Then it's a bit of a long wait until October 31st with Hyperdimension Neptunia beginning a schedule of a release a week, with God Eater 2 being the massive title in among all that.

Final Fantasy; J-Stars & Gundam getting release dates could really really help (it'd help if they plugged some gaps in the release schedule too), but it's probably a little late for that.

I wouldn't say Vita has a stellar lineup for the holidays this year, but it's a damn sight better than what they had in 2012.
