Forums - Sony - PlayStation Vita sells 4 million units in Japan

KyleeStrutt on 24 June 2015

Something that was overlooked on the Famitsu thread, but I think it deserves its on thread.

As of June 21st 2015 total sales of the PlayStation Vita hardware family which includes the PlayStation Vita handheld and the PlayStation Vita TV microsonsole has surpassed the 4m mark.

Sales of the handheld make up for the majority of its numbers with around 3.8m units sold, while the microconsole has only sold a little more than 160k.

Japan is Vita's strongest market if you didn't knew that, the hardware family has sold around 2.3m on the US since release and we recently learned that its sold over 600k in Spain, although we don't know if that number includes the microconsole; sales of the system in the UK, France and Germany are all around 500k by the way.

The Vita hardware family is expected to surpass the Nintendo GameCube in the not to distant future.

All of this is by Media Create.

VGchartz has Vita @3.795million units sold for japan.
So its about 205k below where it should be if we had updated sales data for ps vita in japan.

 

Also read people here saying its massively undertracked in WW sales charts... like 1million below what it should be or something around there abouts.

Congrats Vita!
Hope you sell 5 million soon.

A new vita with a HDMI port is coming, vita TV is finished.

Uh... hooray? ._.



"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."

Wait.... Vita has sold more in Spain than it has in UK/France/Germany? :o

Spain numbers are more recent, so maybe not.

Congrats. I think it can do 6m+ LT, which is decent for any system in Japan.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Media Create:

Japan: 4million+  (VGcharts 3.795million) (205k undertracked)

USA: 2.3million  (VGcharts 2.1million) (200k undertracked)

Spain: 600k+

Germany: 500k   (VGcharts 296k)

UK: 500k  (VGcharts 534k)

France: 500k (VGcharts 487k)

 

around 500k is vague.... but its safe to say the germany one is probably 150-200k undertracked as well.

I wouldnt be surprised if gobally the Vita is over 1million undertracked compaired to VGchartz numbers.

 

*edit:

Anyone know how resent all these Media create numbers are?

Not a chance, not even in shipment PSVita is 1 million above what VGChartz say...

Congratz, I'll buy another for backup sooner or later



I cannot imagine toilet-free life.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.
