PS Vita Sells more than 321,000 units in 2 days

Sony has sold over 321,000 units in just 2 days according to sales reports from Famitsu. This was fithy thousand short of the Nintendo 3DS which moved 371,000 in the first 2 days. However it did beat the PSP’s record which is something Sony have to be pleased with. The original model when released in 2004 in Japan moved only 166,000 units in the first two days.

The 3DS might have moved more than the PS Vita in the first two days, however 3DS sales took a dive in the first week. Forcing Nintendo to lower its price tag. Will the same happen to the PS Vita? Its doubtful, with a huge line up of 24 games for the  PS Vita  launch. It expected to continue however Sony executives have admitted it will be a real challenge in maintaining sales over the next few years. *Not if they release some huge title in the coming years….
It will be interesting to see the world sales figures once its released in North America, Europe and other pal regions come February 22nd.
