Vita sells 1.2 million units Worldwide

[Hells Malice]

Glad to see the Nintendo fanboys (we need to think of a name for their group...something witty) shit all over this thread and liked eachothers posts all over the place.
Amazing how bad a fanbase can make itself look.


Anyway, those are good sales. I'm surprised it's not higher though, since i've seen so many damn people talking about their new Vita all over the place. It seemed like everyone has one. I even hear chatter about it all the time at my work, and my store is technologically retarded.
I may be getting one when I get paid on friday if I can afford it, I unfortunately piled up quuuite a few pre-orders between now and early april so I don't really have a ton to spend outside of them until I get my tax refund.

If you've got enough other games to play until April, I would wait with buying a Vita until then, there's not that much released for it yet and I have mine lying around somewhere next to me while playing on my DS most of the time right now.. mostly because I have to wait until Friday as well before I can spend some money on games (but I'll mostly get PSP games, since I never had a PSP and got quite a few games to catch up with!).

For the people who were saying things about 3ds vs vita, this was a good history lesson and shows why the vita selling even "average" is actually amazing against Nintendo domination and killer effect over the years.

the fact that Sony was successful enough to make a second console is an achievement in itself.

world wide including japan wow those are weak sales japan is like half of those how misleading op

 

[Fyrus]

It's not really misleading, since it says Worldwide, of course they're gonna include Japan.

 

[insidexdeath]

Pretty impressive despite the fact that it's selling bad in Japan. It's just like I predicted, the Vita's launch titles appeal more to the western audience.

Good to hear. Unfortunately, because this is GBATemp, expect some people to argue against it like many do with other devices.

Low in comparison to the 3DS now, or in the same time-frame when the 3DS first released? Someone got the numbers on that?

 

[OriginalHamster]

It took 10 weeks in Japan to get 600K, so only the other 600k should be considered part of the "launch in other regions"
I hope it has good legs, 3DS took a nose dive after the initial release.

We didn't know if it was shipped or sold.

Here (if VGcharts are to be believed):

 

[prowler]

VGChartz are generally bad and not to be trusted since they estimate numbers, not saying the numbers on that chart you posted aren't correct, they might be but if someone sourced VGChartz I'd laugh back at them.

Posting more hypocritical wrong stuff I see.
I didn't even see that much "fanboyish", comments being liked, specially minus the jk
parts.

Makes me think you didn't even read the whole freaking thread.

I means it easy to post the you posted without looking at anything.

Can you link to your source which claimed Game-Track was creating fake numbers now?
