Looking more and more like the 3DS will be unchallenged saleswise this gen.

3DS Sales first 2 days:: 371,326 units

50k less than the 3DS in the same amount of time with launch titles that eclipsed the 3DS' launch list quality wise and during the holiday season.

So the 3DS had a more successful launch than the Vita in Japan.

Interesting. I think that's a sign for sales to come.

considering 700 k were available and its the christmas rush it's pretty underwhelming. That's less than half of its shipment and its the holiday rush season 3DS on the other hand, sold out in its launch week

Of course the 3DS is going to sell more than the Vita overall. I don't think even Sony would think otherwise. What the people who compare the two's sales don't understand is:
  • Vita is chosen by those who prefer a home console-esque experience on their handhelds.
  • 3DS is chosen by those who prefer a different and more of a pick-up-and-play experience on their handhelds.
And the latter group is much bigger than the former.

I thought they beefed up their supply because they had 400,000 preorders... I also thought that, with an 85% sell through, they sold 85% of their product. How bout that.

Some earlier thread today on one of those rumors that the PSVita was completely sold out. Going on and on about "victory," listing wikipedia to show that Vita had outsold 3DS (in which I turned around and just changed the numbers on Wiki and asked for a credible source), saying people couldn't read or something and has otherwise straightout stated he was looking forward to the 3DS' failure and Vita's success. He's the kind of person that would be happy to see a company go out of business and thousands of people lose their jobs just to claim "ownage" on SW.

if nintendo were still selling at 250$ then yes sony is in big trouble but its not ,the 3ds is close to 50% cheaper than the 300$ psv with 3g/wifi .

so i think its gr8 numbers is you ask me and since sony has over 16 internal developers around the world and lets not to forget price cuts and bundles and obvously better online service , so i think it will manege to convince us all even the hardcore nintendo fanboys .

so people the battle has just begun lets give both parties atleast a year and then decide which one dominates , although i dont care about the sells number .

p.s:english is not my native tongue ,hope i send my point of view clear.

With February being an incredibly slow month for video game sales while December is an absolutely massive time for sales.

Well, to be fair, Professor Layton and Nintendogs are bigger than any of the Vita games right now. >_> They're probably not strong system sellers though, like Everybody's Golf and Dynasty Warriors.

Yeah, I second the AtariKid posts. I wonder where that guy is... >.> In any case, I hope the Vita does well. I personally will be picking up a 3DS in the (relatively) near future for my first ever handheld, but I really love Sony products. G'luck Vita.

Not just everything 3DS, but everything Nintendo and feels their own hardware isn't enough for them. He also states that only Sony hardware will do good for Nintendo (I'm not repeating my opinion on something like that unless I have too).

PS Vita going up against the 3DS when it just got Dragon Quest: RS3, Mario, Mario Kart, Monster Hunter released not too long ago. Sony screwed up. TBH They should've gotten something like Monster Hunter for launch as it was a huge PSP franchise. Games like Uncharted aren't going to get the Japan like it'll get some Western gamers. Line-up is still much better then the 3DS line-up though. Sony waited too long to release this system and Nintendo pulled the 3DS line-up out of the garbage and dropped it's price. We'll see what happens when some JRPG's are released for it next year.

The 3G model only sold like 56% sell rate. So, the 3G model, as no surprise, is mostly dead weight.

Who is atarikid do you ask? *look around fearfully*

If you go in a wood, during a night of full moon, you shall find a cavern. If you align a PSP, PSP Go and PSP-E1000 in front of said cavern and scream "Nintendo went under" 3 times, the faceless beast will come out of his cave to deliver a truthful speech to us lowly commoners of System wars.

Logic can also slow him down but the success of that is considerably lower as he'll just keep pressing on.

PS Vita launch a success in Japan – moves 700k units day one....lol

"Sony recently launched the PlayStation Vita in Japan and according to reports it appears that initial shipment is already sold out. To put things into perspective, the Nintendo 3DS sold around 375k units in Japan during its weekend launch, 400k in the US and around 303k units in two days in Europe. It appears that Sony's latest handheld has sold more units in Japan than the 3DS did in two territories combined, in just one day."

I just dont see the Vita outselling the 3DS. I will likely buy one down the road, as for now I will stick to my 3DS.

It won't outsell the 3DS by any stretch of imagination, but that doesn't mean it can't be a success.

They should have released it before this... Sony's own doing but being second just means they try that bit harder and everyone who buys benefifits, i mean look at it already the thing is good value, great lineup with great support and games to come, it's just so nice not seeing something that only does the absolute bare minimum like 3DS.

Well PSP didnt sell as much as DS but it was still a success considering its large install base...

Vita will probably sell less than 3DS but that doesnt mean its not gonna be a success for Sony...
