You Sir, are a certified retard.

First of all, the 3DS didn’t have a competitor at the time and second of all, Nintendo sold 3.2 million units, but they still had huge financial losses because they didn’t reach their sales expectations (Over 4 million units). It wasn’t until the release of games like “Monster Hunter” and the sales drop of the 3DS that the system started to gain momentum, especially on Japan, and that happened by the end of the 2011. Besides, Japan has never been a strong market for Sony and most of the Vita games are aimed toward western gamers, which are Sony’s main buyers. The same happened with the PS2 and the PS3 and they ended up being highly successful.

It’s important to keep in mind that the handheld market has changed a lot. Many people believe that there’s no need to buy a Vita or a 3DS when they can get a Smarphone instead (Which include tons of games for low prices). Of course, if you enjoy games with deeper storylines which are going to keep you hooked for hours and hours, you’ll choose Sony or Nintendo, but if you’re a casual gamer who doesn’t want to spend for high quality games, then you’ll choose a Smartphone. Sadly, there are many more casual gamers than hardcore gamers and that has affected the handheld market in the last years.

I like both the 3DS and the Vita, but, in my humble opinion, I believe that the Vita is the best handheld system ever made.

Yeah, but by this time in 3DS’s life cycle, it had sold 3.2 million units worldwide(during a Japanese earthquake and nuclear power plant meltdown worse than Chernobyl at a $250 price tag no less). Vita has sold 1.2 million worldwide. Where are the system selling games on the horizon?

If you mean that the 3DS outsold the Vita, YES. However, in terms of quality, fun, game variety and technology, the Vita has gained the upper hand, plain and simple. Anyway, let’s don’t forget that the 3DS, which has one year on the market, also had an awful start. It’s just a matter of time for the Vita to get stronger sales.
