Sony sells 321,000 PlayStation Vita units in 2 days

Sony shifted 321,400 units of the PlayStation Vita, its new handheld game device, in Japan in its first two days on sale, research firm Enterbrain said on Tuesday.

That falls short of rival Nintendo 3DS, which sold 371,000 in its first two days, Enterbrain said. Sales of the 3DS, however, slumped weeks after the launch, forcing Nintendo to slash the price and crushing its profit outlook for the year.
