PS Vita is the most desired console in Japan – Famitsu Survey

Okay, lol.

This is weird, surely. The PS Vita is the lowest selling handheld in Japan but a new poll of Famitsu users has made it clear that the system is still desirable.

The data is certainly interesting and puts the 3DS at no 2, with the Wii U having very low interest amongst the people who voted.

I really have no idea what this survey accomplishes but the PS Vita has a major task on its hands to really carve a decent userbase amidst tough competition from the 3DS and also considering the fact that there is hardly any market for the system due to smartphones and tablets.

The survey is a bit suspect considering the Xbox 360 is at no. 6. Also, 64% of people who responded said that they want the Vita. You can check out the full list below.

  1. PS Vita – 64%
  2. 3DS – 48%
  3. Wii U – 34%
  4. PS3 – 25%
  5. PC – 14%
  6. Xbox 360 – 11%
  7. Smartphone – 10%
  8. PSP – 10%
  9. Wii – 9%
  10. iPad – 7%
  11. DSi / DSiXL – 5%
  12. iPhone – 5%
  13. iPod Touch – 4%
  14. Other – 2%

Thanks, CVG.
