Can the Vita and 3DS learn from the smart device market?

I love my 3DS and I am begging for a great reason to pick up a PlayStation Vita. These mobile platforms are enjoyable devices because unlike a smartphone or tablet they are dedicated, button busting, gaming devices. When I pick up my 3DS I know it’s going to be for fun. However, when I pick [...]

Rayman Screen E3 1

Rayman Origins may be one of my favorite games from last year. The music and animation flow together seamlessly and adorably.

However the more impressive fact is that the 3.5 million copies does not include the 1.2 million players that signed up through the World of Warcraft deal and I believe it does not account for digital sales as well.
