its only been a week give it time. once fall and winter rolls around sales will pick up

But then you'll have Pokemon, and almost anyone would choose a system with Pokemon over one without.

If momentum isn't built in the next 6 weeks, I don't see it being built in the next 6 years (in the West, particularly America).



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I don't think Vita will suddenly start selling like hotcakes. A slow but steady climb however is very possible and even likely.

Who told you this ? The price is already 199 dollars ! You just maybe saw a Killzone Bundle at that price.

And about the OP: it shouldn't be a remarkable performance anyways. Let's hope this will change by the release of Killzone.

Edit: sorry i didn't see "here", where you live fella ?



I have a social media app on my phone that allows me to quickly see what the casuals are thinking. In the past month or so I didn't see a single person mention PS Vita. Since gamescom like 5 people have already asked if they should go vita or 3ds. Its sales will be huge*

*relatively.

...and a Walking Dead Bundle...really, Sony ? That game can be bought for less than 20 bucks on anything else (PS360, PC...even iOS ?!)

Walking Dead + 400 Days is actually 24,99$ on Vita both digital and retail.

Huge??? i thought it might be like 35k but every1 seems to think much less, if its 20k after the price cut vita is in trouble imo, i kno it'll spike with killzone but still....

Yes but it has a huge one in a week. That could be a huge tolipping point for lots of people on the fence.



This price drop happened less than a week ago and you already expect to see an impact in sales? wow, I suppose we should expect to see it overthrow the ps3 in terms of sales by next month. I sometimes feel as if I'm the only one who understands the concept of time.
