Yokai Watch is impressing the heck out of me. I know there was a full marketing blitz with anime and manga but that tail is still impressive. I'm very happy for it. It's rare to see a new IP perform like that.

That's exactly the kind of game Sony needs to work on for the Vita.

9 of the top 20 are 3ds, and 12 of the top 30 are 3ds, 2 of the top 20 are vita, 4 of the top 30 are vita, the 3ds is still, at it worst, outselling the vita by almost 2-1, vita at it best. People here saying the 3ds is tanking, and vita is doing very well... Vita sells more 3rd party games, how? It's still being blown away by 3ds, the 3ds has almost 50% of the top 20 and 30, while the vita stumbles in with 2-3 here and there? What are some of you people on, seriously?! That's like trying to say the wiiu is doing great in America, because it's selling 20,000 a week! C'mon, let's keep it real, for real!


lol.. this is internet bro..... we can´t expect people to be that reasonable or rational. It´s all about brand fanboyism you know.

all for all, Vita is doing good for a week with a big release and the 3ds is doing good in a week with no releases.



I hope those Disgaea 4 Return numbers were enough on opening week, cant wait for the localisation.
MonHun 4 is dying quickly now that 4G is announced and Attack on Titan is no longer having stock issues by the looks of things

That was selectively quite a poor argument.

If you want to see a "big" release, visit next week when Dragon Quest drops.  I don't think titles pushing 20-30k FW should really be counted as "big".  But a title pushing 20k FW on 3DS should definitely be counted as "new".

So Toshin Toshi sells 22K... less than Disgaea & Amagami remakes. ImageEpoch used to sell several times that on Playstation platforms. They must be total zeroes at maths or absolute bast**!

Expectations seem to be completely ignored by yourself. 3DS is way down YoY, while the Vita is up YoY. Use some of that reason and rationality you're claiming.
