Latest Japanese Hardware Sales

[George P Global Moderator]

The PSV is looking almost as bad as the PSPGo did. Sony should have just stuck with the PSP as is till the next generation. Then they could've came out with the vita type device next to the PS4.

Why isn't this topic pinned? You can set your watch by AlphaPrime.

When does the PS Vita price drop come into effect? You'd think (hope) that would raise the PSV sales.

[123456789A]

Those Japanese sure don't buy many Xbox 360s.

[AlphaPrime]

I don't think I'd be a very good watch =P

PS Vita gets the price drop in Japan on the 28th of this month. So we won't see any results of that until the week after. I'd imagine this weeks numbers will be pretty low because of that.

That's the first time in quite a long time that the vita has managed to overtake the 3ds(atleast when it comes to one specific model). But will it last..?

may or may not last. the price dropped worked for the 3DS though.

[TheLegendOfMart]

Wow Vita sales got a good kick up the arse, hopefully its not a one off thing, I'd like to see Vita take off.

[compl3x]

Price drops almost always work.

PSV sales on the way down again. See where it stops this time.

[TruckWEB]

Still don't know why the PS-V sell that much, not like it has that many good games for it....

[Blackhearted]

Well, so much for the vita's attempt at a comeback.

[compl3x]

Games are part of the problem, but I would say the price point is just still too high.

Well, so much for the vita's attempt at a comeback.

Yeah. Looks like it was short lived. Sales were cut in more than half in 1 week. (63k to 36k)
