Sony Aims to Sell 10 Million PlayStation Vitas this Fiscal Year

i apparently noticed that sony is very very optimistic ;)

So that as from 1st April 2012 to March 31st 2013. Well two months in and we have 470k sold. In that time, average weekly sales have fallen from 70k per week to about 50k per week. Good luck fellas.... 10 months to do 9.5m.

So thats why they didn't show any Vita games at the press conference? Awesome strategy.

Seems very ambitious in my opinion. I cant see how they can meet their target.

I must admit that while Wonderbook may be brilliant to some people i personally am not interested in it in the slightest... why they wasted so much time of their conference on it i have no idea...

10 million by March 31? Doesn't look like it.....

Good luck to Sony. They will need it.

With no price cut, there is no chance.

And that follows the news, that they don't intend to do a pricecut.

Err... wut?

10Mio? In 10 years ...

In two years maybe

I'm assuming this means there'll be a price cut in time for the holiday season. I can't see how this is possible otherwise

History really does repeat itself.

Let's just hope Sony don't get into the weather forecasting business, they'd prolly invent some proprietory measurement for temperature and wind speed too no doubt.

So many problems with Sony's logic. How do they plan on selling 10 million systems that many people still feel is too expensive and doesn't have enough interesting games? They better hope it gets hacked soon I guess because they're obviously not interested in supporting their own hardware themselves.

nothing is impossible, but this made me laugh, just that...

Haha. In your dreams Sony. Lucky to hit 5m at the moment.

But there is no games Sony!

Quite optimistic imo, but who knows.

Again WonderBook? Really Sony....

I want to give Wonderbook a chance but EyePet was such a tedious Augmented Reality show case and then Table Top Tanks and all the other AR games on PS-Vita have sucked as well that I just don't have a lot of faith in Sony's ability to do AR games with good user experience. In fact the only good AR game I have played is Face Raiders on 3DS. Everything else is clunky at best.

Optimistic doesn't begin to cut it, but it will be their first holiday in the US.

With a price cut, maybe. Without? Sony is high

If Sony thinks they are going to sell that many consoles, then they must have some really cool stuff in store for it =)

The only way this happens is if Sony does not do a price drop on the PS3, and instead bundles a Vita with every PS3 sold.

If Sony is predicting that much, then it must mean theyve something up their sleeves. :)

The 3DS managed to recover and sell roughly 15 million in its first year, so 10 million doesn't sound too unreasonable. But SONY really need a good advertising campaign around Black Friday and Christmas. They also need more focus on the Vita during TGS and GC and need to announce more games that will be out by the end of the year.

Doable.

I think they will achieve their role. There is still lots of time, and they will announce more games obviously down the road at GC and TGS.
