Media Create published the latest hardware sales from Japan.

3DS leading the pack as usual...

Ayay, Wii-U back down below 10,000. Cue the "doomsdayers" versus "fanboys" arguments all over again.

Vita seems to have found a base line in the mid-to-high teens.

Also, here's the software charts:

Considering Dragon's Crown is the only PSV game in top 20, it is doing really really well.

3DS # | 57.771 - 14 3DS games on the top 20

PSV | 17.639 | 1 PSV on the top 20 (a game which is even for the PS3)

Re: Vita seems to have found a base line in the mid-to-high teens.

True... looking at the Vistas game library, at least the those released in JP, they seem to cater around that demographic.( I would also imagine mostly males) speaking of which.... how does scej advertise the Vita in JP? If I where them I'll probably plaster Vita adds in all of Japans metro(train) for all the 21-30 aged gamers to see.

[knifefight]

I meant "base line" in numbers, not age demographic.
It sold 17,000 this week, 17,000 last week, 15,000 the week before that, etc. It's settled in that area of sales, is what I was talking about, heh ^^;

Don't you think MS should just stop selling the 360 in japan?? Its just pathetic.

[MrTrololo]

Yeah i always wonder why MS even bother selling Xbox in Japan when most people in Japan are buying PS. lol

[gedden7]

or 3DS' or Wii's or Wii U' or PSPs or Vita's or Dreamcasts lol

[MrTrololo]

No wonder 3DS is selling 10x better than Wii U. Probably most of the games that supposed to be released on the Wii U is released on the 3DS cause developer is scared their games won't sell that much by releasing their games on the Wii U

[Neonridr]

sort of the same reason why so many games were being released on the 3DS instead of the Vita. Since the install base was ridiculous when you compared the two.

[jcnba28]

The reason 3ds is selling like crazy and Wii U isn't is because most of Nintendo's 2012/2013 first party titles were released on 3ds.

[G20WLY]

^I think anticipation for next gen consoles will be impacting WiiU sales, and may well have done for some time now.

[Aggesan]

I'm glad to see that Vita is still hanging in there, even if it's only a third of the sales the 3DS is doing.

[Concertoine]

disagree for stating a fact

[dcj0524]

Its psp/DS all over again. The vita has found footing in Japan. And is catching on in Europe. Needs alot of help in North America.

[r21]

Staying at 17k+ for vita. Hopefully an increase next week.

[knifefight]

Almost everything should get an increase next week.

It's Obon, one of the biggest sales weeks of the year.
