Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
One game for Vita in top 30, and that game is on top doing VERY GOOD. This is a great week for Vita.

I guess this shows the power that software has.

Out of interest, what is the next Vita release that will likely boost sales on release week?

EDIT: nice Soul Hackers sales as well

WTF
 
How can Vita have sold 50k and only have 1 game in the top 30?

The Project Diva series is absolutely huge relative to the rest of Vita's Japanese software lineup. By far the biggest (temporary) exclusive announced for the platform in that region, at this point.

Not bad, but we all know how next week will probably look like
Never knew that Hatsune Miku is that popular in Japan

Good Vita numbers compared to what they've been, but I'm not going to celebrate yet. Hopefully this is the turning point for the system.

Yes, don't celebrate. Vita doesn't have games announced to support this bump.

It will go below 10k in a few weeks again.
 
Great debuts for both Devil Summoner and Senran Kagura 1.5; they should be able to reach the 100k mark which is pretty good for the respective publishers.

Miku is selling well as usual.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
| 3DS # | 67.926 | 64.921 | 55.264 | 3.131.224 | 1.741.979 | 7.266.963 |
| PS3 | 12.846 | 12.243 | 32.969 | 848.346 | 861.033 | 8.265.494 |

Aaaaaand the big run has started: less than one million before surpassing PS3.

EDIT: Yeah, the problem is that this Vita's bump won't last long. There isn't the sofware able to keep the hardware selling not even 25k per week.

It is sort of worrying that new releases and new hardware color bumps bring out the back catalog for the various Nintendo consoles but did nothing at all for the Vita. I guess not many were waiting for Miku and Persona 4, though I guess quite a few that were bought the system when those were announced.

I'll celebrate Miku 'cause it did opened great all things considered.
People saying this wouldn't outsell Mirai should eat da crow right now.
