Sony recently unveiled their flagship product in the PlayStation Lineup, called the PlayStation Vita, the most awaited handheld gaming console after the Nintendo’s 3DS. The company managed to sell about 321, 000 units in just Two day after it got released in Japan on December 17th. The device is yet to arrive in other unions yet and is expected to become a hit in other markets too.

Even though they managed to sell a huge number of devices in just Two days, the count falls short of the Nintendo’s 3DS sales record. The Nintendo sold over 371, 000 units of its 3DS in just Two days after the release. Reports also say that the fans lineup for the product was as long as the iPhone’s lineups! The PlayStation Portable was unveiled in the year 2004 and Sony has sold over 73 million units till date. So, now the competition is heating up between Nintendo’s 3DS and the Sony’s PlayStation Vita.

What do you think? If you’re offered a Vita and 3DS, which one would you pick?
