Well, seeing that in Japan, the Vita sells 10 times better than in Poland (10 000 units weekly) and that's still considered low sales, I wouldn't go as far as to say that Poland is a substantial part of the overall market, but brand loyalty towards Sony is extremely high. Do note what I said earlier - two days versus an entire year of sales, Poland is basically a sure-fire market for Sony in this regard, even if the sales are not as high as in the "wealthier" countries.52,000 for the year that must be a lot.... It sounds like a lot... Didn't the PS2 and the DS both sell about 150 million units? So I take it Poland is one of the larger markets.... Let's see divide 52K into 150 million hmmm so out of say a 10 year life span of those two consoles Poland counts for something like .25% of the total market.... Talk about a small sample.
My joking point was that while the Vita may be whipping ass in Poland, thats hardly the norm for the rest of the planet. (Rather the sales numbers seem to indicate the extreme opposite.) The point being just because you know "a lot of people" who buy or are into something doesn't mean the entire world swings that way.
Not that I care if the Vita sells or doesn't sell, either way is fine with me.
I realize that this is not "a norm for the rest of the planet", which is why I said that it "depends" on which particular area we are talking about. I simply used an example of "my own backyard" because it's relevant to me.
