It's selling at around a little more than 15k each week right now, so my prediction is that it'll sell around 80k september and october, maybe 120k november and about 160k December.

So, 440k total.

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.

I agree, but...that really isn't hard now, is it?

500k is achievable but 1m seems difficult since the big games come for other platforms as well (Legend of Heroes, FFX/X-2 HD, J-Stars on PS3 and God Eater 2 on PSP)

No less than 800k. with Kresnik's list thats 24 titles so I think we will see a big boost this time around.

500,000 to 750,000. Man, Japan is lucky. Vita gets so much better support there.

*Shrug*

It started off well in 2012; riding the wave of Hatsune Miku + Ys 4 & EDF 2017 in September and then Legend of Heroes & Little Battlers in October.  It's just they had nothing beyond that to keep the momentum going, but they seem to have spaced things out a little better this year (assuming some of those games without release dates are scheduled for December).
