*Hardware sales*
Sometimes... I don't want to believe in the truth... because I don't even know... if the truth is true or not...

MrTrololo3937d ago

Guess you want Nintendo to fail really badly huh ?

xxPillsxx3937d ago

Did I say so? I just can't believe PSP and PS Vita is just selling that bad, even if the 3DS stands 3rd place next to PSP and PS Vita it won't change the fact that PSP and PS Vita is selling very bad in USA

dcj05243937d ago

The USA is dominated by XBOX until recently. But the 3DS outsells everything everywhere so /:. Lets just hope 1. More people can see how awesome the VITA is & 2. Get rockstar to make a GTA V spinoff on VITA+ play ps2 classics.

3-4-53937d ago

Your not intelligent.

PSP has been out since 2004. Of course it's not selling well, everybody who wants one most likely already bought 1-2 of them over the LAST DECADE!.

Vita had a huge jump last week in Japan.... why ??

Because of a GAME!.

Once more good games show up on Vita, which they will, people will buy one.

I'm going to get a Vita eventually, but for the price it is, and the fact I still have a ton of PSP games to catch up on, = I'm going to wait a bit before purchasing.

clrlite3937d ago (Edited 3937d ago )

The Vita marketing here in the US is very light, aside from in-store demo-stations etc. that often fail to get the point across.

PS3 is pretty popular here but more-so because of their great games, reliable hardware, reputation, etc.

Once the PS4 kicks off they may include the Vita in some kind of marketing strategy and it has the potential (at least) to sell very well. They will have to hype their products in the face of their "competition's" marketing as well and that's important.

etc.

xxPillsxx3936d ago

I'm outta this thread
P.S: I meant I can't believe PS Vita sell that bad not the PSP, I forgot to edit, now peace please.

NeoTribe3936d ago

Well the psp is pretty old and rightfully should die so the vita can become more popular. I think vita will sell better when ps4 is out. I originally had no plans on ever getting one until i seen how hand and hand it seems to be going with the ps4. That being said i will probably get one soon. Id like to get one when they change the design but not sure if ill be able to wait or not.

The Wii beat the Wii U in sales? What the....

paulcek3937d ago

That's actually pretty normal for a console. The PS2 frequently outsold the PS3 when the PS3 first came out. The DS was also outselling the 3DS when the 3DS first came out. Especially since the Wii U doesn't have a lot of games out yet, the Wii has been outselling it so far. After the games library expands, the Wii U will outsell the Wii. That's when the PS3 and 3DS started outselling the PS2 and DS. So new consoles get outsold easily after the first few months they come out.

The Xbox One and PS4 may do well in the first few months, but after that I think they will get outsold by Xbox360 and PS3 for a little while (as hype dies down). Plus it will probably be sold out the first few months, so it may be hard to even find somewhere to buy an Xbox One or PS4. As a result it will be outsold by it's previous generation console, but again, only for a while (depending on the games library)

PunisherRevenge3932d ago

@Trunkz... Yep and the DS beat the PS Vita crazy huh?

jcnba283937d ago

Can the 3DS dominance be stopped? I see another DS on the horizon.

Trunkz3937d ago

No

It would be a 3DS Lite, XL screen but thinner with 2nd analog, this would be great.

Bathyj3937d ago

Boggles the mind.

Last of Us by far the most popular game, and yet Xbox still outselss PS3

darkequitus3937d ago

The Last of Us is definately my best purchase this year so far. I guess, whoever would want to buy The Last of US already has a PS3.

thecowsaysmoo3937d ago

The 360 is cheaper, simple as that.

Rockstar3937d ago

vgchartz....

Not sure they are so reliable.

HammadTheBeast3937d ago

Well, they did wait 6 months to admit that PS3 outsold Xbox worldwide.

Elda3937d ago

The XB don't have any AAA exclusives or exclusives period this year & it's still beating PS3 in sales in the USA,talk about crazy.

tubers3937d ago

X1 USA domination foreshadowing.

NeoTribe3936d ago

I think it has to do with americans being patriotic retards honestly. My buddy is a xbot and i remember his say something along the lines of "im not buying that japanese shit". So yeah, its a form of patriotic retardation.

MrTrololo3937d ago

Bunch of little kid buy xbox 360 whereby mature gamer buy ps3

LogicStomper3937d ago

Only little kids make such assumptions with no basis of information. By the way, your name and grammar gives it away so you get 0/10.

xDHAV0K24x3937d ago

But if u gotta pay for xbl, wouldnt the ps3 be a better choice for a kid?

wiki should redirect the meaning of irony to this single comment

MadLad3937d ago

From that comment, you must own a 360 then. You sure as hell don't own a PS3 if this is the case.

InTheLab3937d ago

Especially after the few months MS had with their PR. People just love XB here in the States and based on what my friends were playing on Live, The Last of Us isn't their cup of tea.

It makes sense really. Home team advantage and all...

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg7h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv726h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast8h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood8h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK5h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

gold_drake3h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.
