PS Vita Reaches 1.4m Install Base after Successful Global Launch


It may have taken a while for the PS Vita to arrive on western shores, with an unfortunate delay from the lucrative holiday season into the less than desirable launch month of February and one full year after Nintendo's 3DS debut the Vita has its work cut out, alas it's finally here. With the PlayStation Vita now officially available in all major territories we can reveal first week sales and how they compare to the 3DS and last gen portables.

Due to a staggered launch in the USA, first week sales include the first edition bundle (70k units) that released February 15th, one week before the official launch. Even with those bundles factored in the Vita launch it's still one of the weakest launches for a portable in the US, over 25% less than the 3DS (as well as the PSP and the DS).



Europe seems to have embraced the Vita, (UK figures at 125k) experiencing its largest launch week numbers out of the 3 main territories. Not quite reaching the impressive PSP launch numbers back in 2005, but still above both the 3DS and the DS.



Including figures from its Japanese launch last year, the Vita clears 1 million units in its first week. This puts the install base at 1.4 million, and should top 2 million fairly soon.



A strong launch line up helps PS Vita off to a good start, certainly comparable to the 3DS. In the coming weeks we should have a vague idea on how the Vita will perform during the summer. Though if we look back to this period last year after a similar launch to the Vita, the 3DS endured a difficult start in life before getting a significant price reduction. With the holiday season a way off it's likely we're going to see something similar with the Vita. Sony however has commented that they're content with the current sales and not something they should be worried about.



我翻译的比较随意，但应该没什么容易误解的地方，姑且凑合吧

大致上是说psv的欧洲首周为38万套，美国为30万套（包含15号发售的预约版）

这使得psv全球装机量达到了1.4 million，也就是140万套

psv在欧洲受到了欢迎，其中英国有12.5万套的销量。比3ds首周多卖了5万套，虽然没有达到psp57万套首周的高度，但依然高过ds和3ds

psv在美国是首发最弱的掌机平台，即使包含了7w的先行版销量，首周仍低于3ds约25％，也低于psp和ds的首发

包含日本的首周销量，psv全球首周大概有100万，这事总装机量达到了140万，200万装机量指日可待

最后一段是讲psv有一个好的开始，首发可以和3ds媲美，在接下来几周我们会对psv夏季表现有一个模糊的概念。我们知到3ds直到降价位置初期过的非常艰难，因为旺季已过，这也有可能发生在psv身上。有评论指出索尼满足于现在的销量，不担心他们不需要担心的问题
