Please please please Sony!!
Let this be a lesson!


God I hope so!  I really feel like games such as Demon's Souls 2 and an MGS sidestory would sell gangbusters on the Vita.

So apparently, a port is what just helped the Vita...
Wat



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Next they should bundle Minecraft.


This. If they don't have a Minecraft bundle, and I honestly think they might not, as they have not showed anything at E3, heads should be rolling (unless some other company blocked it).



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I hope Sony looks at the boost.Vita needs more games Sony please :(



People are forgetting that a redesign was also released. Never the less, decent numbers for both the Vita and the B2 port. Now I want something moaaaaar



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

Let's see how far back in the grave it goes next month. Will we have an unprecedented percent boost and also unprecedented percent drop?? :P
I'm going to predict 15K, I dunno, totally baseless.

Sony shipped all these and knew essentially the types of numbers Vita was doing and still made those comments about small games being what Vita needs... why?

What the hell, It nearly outsold the WiiU in the month that MK8 released xD


C'mon really? An entire month of having a new SKU when the past 2 months practically had no vita's on the shelves vs 1 boost of 2 days :-/ Anywayz, Vita's boost was definitely from being a new SKU. Hopefully it holds next month!

While i'm all for more console ports (I don't care how old) I think it was more about the new model than Borderlands 2.

Why would the new model be such a motivator?  


Please tell me you're joking. When hasn't a console's sales risen when the first remodel came out?

Okay, let me rephrase.  Why would the new model be that big of a motivator?  


People like new hardware I guess. Hell I already have a Vita and was seriously consider picking up the 2000 model. Also because Vita 1000 stock was very low the past 2 months people who would have bought a Vita with or without Borderlands 2 just waited until the new model was out.

they should port more console games to vita, need for speeds, watchdogs, cods, BF, ect

i mean if these games can run on ps360 i dont see why not on vita


I don't understand why Wii u is getting more Call of duty then Vita



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m
