PSP2, Switch 2 and an Xbox handheld... a brighter portable future?

Toukiden lifts the Vita in the Japanese charts, sells double the PSP version

Sales of Toukiden bundles have, as mentioned yesterday, sent the Vita racing up the Media Create charts in Japan. With the game selling out in many stores, it looks like hardware bundles were a must-buy too. The game sits at No.2 of the charts with double the sales of the PSP edition, something of a first. It is also the third biggest launch week for a Vita game.

03./00. [3DS] Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millenium Girl (Atlus) {2013.06.27} (¥6.279) - 88.278 / NEW 04./00. [PSP] Toukiden (Koei Tecmo) {2013.06.27} (¥5.040) - 66.016 / NEW

The Vita sold 31.271 units last week, up 18,000 on the previous chart, making it the seventh biggest selling week this year. With Dragon's Crown due in a couple of weeks, will the Vita get on a bit of a roll before the summer lull? Not sure where the Vita version of Gundam Breaker charted, if that's out yet. 


Here's my magic graph comparing sales to last year and the major releases.
