PlayStation Vita has managed to sell 1.2 million units across the globe, Sony revealed today. The company also said that Vita software sales reached 2 million units - this includes both retail and digital sales on PSN.
"The market has responded and there is clear demand for a mobile device capable of providing a revolutionary combination of rich gaming and social connectivity within a real world context," said SCE group president Andrew House in a statement. "To sustain momentum, we're working closely with third-party developers and publishers to ensure the best games and franchises possible will be available on PS Vita, and our software line up for the remainder of 2012 will have something for everyone across the globe."
Vita just launched in the West on February 22, following a launch in Japan last December. SCEA boss Jack Tretton has said that he sees a "very, very positive" sales forecast for Vita, and Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida has told IndustryGamers that Sony will "not make the same mistake" with Vita that it made with PSP.
