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

Vita sales rattle along in Japan

Ahead of this week's Golden holiday, Japan snapped up quite a few Vita consoles last week, topping 20,000 which seems about par for the course in recent years. On the games front in the Media Create chart, this year's cute baseball title sells well across all formats, while Eve Burst Error creeps in near the bottom. Minecraft is over the 750K physical sales barrier!
