/facepalm

It didn't sell 1.2 million units ONLY in the US or EU. It sold 1.2 million units WORLDWIDE from the Japanese launch and the weeks after that included into that number of units that sold in the US and EU. So we know that the last number we have for Japan was 578,812 units in Japan. That leaves 612,000 for both the US and EU, so lets split those with 350,000 sold in the US and 262,000 in the EU (I'm excluding the fact that the PS Vita released in MORE than just the US and EU because it was released in Australia, Asia, and South America at the same time too). That means the numbers will be slightly less than those numbers, but it doesn't matter because the 3DS had MORE sales numbers but was taken as the weaker launch. In the first week, the 3DS sold 440,000 units in the US and 303,000 in the EU. By the numbers, the PS Vita is WORSE than the 3DS in terms of number of units sold in the launch week.

Then again, if they really have the total number, Sony is just hiding the fact that in the US and EU, it sold WORSE than the 3DS when it launched and is easily being outsold by the 3DS today (in Japan, Nintendo is selling 7~ 3DS's for every 1 PS Vita). Hell! None of the PS Vita games are even on the top selling charts!

Okay dude. You're right. Calm your tits.

Not too long ago I was on the fence, but due to the fact that the vita can't play half of the psp games I want and the fact that the Vita only has like one game announced that I want verses ~5-7 for the 3ds, I'm learning towards...

buying a psp and a bunch of psp games for super cheap.   ;D

Vita, all the way. Get an early version as an investment towards the future. As with the PSP, the Vita will be (is in the process of...) getting the custom firmware treatment, which will unlock its true potential, and allow it to run just about anything. With this much power, I'm seeing the possibility of N64 games and more. Now, I've gotta go play some Punch-Out!! on my PSP-1000; ciao!

AceHigh:
Hmm.... If I am not at home, it means I don't have time to play videogames, so from my point of view pick neither. Save cash for a gaming PC, or for a bigger TV for your console if you are into that.
