"And even though Sony's PlayStation Vita hasn't been out for a year yet, I think it's safe to say that it's going nowhere fast. From my estimations, in the U.S. the system moved right around 250,000 units in December, putting its total sales in 11 months at 1.28 million units."
"What precedent do we have for this kind of anemic launch? The Nintendo DS hit 1.4 million units in three months in the U.S. The PSP hit 1.2 million in three months. The Nintendo 3DS hit 1.4 million in seven months. Even the PS3, which had a disastrous post-launch year, still hit 1.3 million in 6 months."
almost 4 times slower than the PSP, and almost 2 times slower than the PS3. Any hope left? |

I see you take this serious guy! How about this. If it dies, it dies. Life goes on. Feel better? --- "You still play SNES & Genesis games? Yeah, they are terrible by today's standard.

Buh bye.

The_DjokerPosted 1/14/2013 12:28:31 PM | So North America sales summed up
Awesome - 360 and 3DS
Good - PS3
Average - Wii U
Bad- Vita
Irrelevant - Wii, PSP and DS.

Hardcore Naoto fan.

stargazer64Posted 1/14/2013 12:31:09 PM | I'm sure Sony has a ton of killer software lined up to combat these poor sales.
Right guys?
Right?!?!?!?

^^lol, these facts really get you worked up into a tizzy, huh. Just taking a wild guess here, but is "Compass" short for "complete ass"? Would be consistent with the way you conduct yourself on these boards. |
