stupid move. the thing is it sold more on PS3 then the handheld and if they would have kept it on PS3 and not the obviously U.S. fail'd PSP then VC2 would have sold more then 2m units but thats why Sega isn't a console maker any more.

they make stupid decisions like bringing the franchise to PSP. i know they didn't think i was going to buy the PSP or anyone else just because they brought the franchise to the portable system.

yea i'll get a Vita but likely not this game by download. yea i think i'll pass. Sega are stupid fucks! how well has Yakuza done in the U.S? not half as good as VC on PS3 i'm damn sure!


I have a feeling Yakuza is more succesful than VC in the west. Yakuza doesn't have tha english VA but  subtitles only unlike VC which has a great VA and I have a feeling VC is kinda overtracked in here IMHO.

Anyway,  I agree they alienate their fanbase by releasing it on the PSP.  Stupid Sega, they also haven't localize Shining hearts but I can't hate them totally because of Yakuza series.

I blame zex!~ 



 

Well of course they aren't going to localise in the west for PSP silly. They're gonna do a HD upgrade and do a worldwide release of VC2 and 3 on one disc for PS3.

If I say it enough times it WILL come true.

Well thats more than a little dissapointing. can't say i didnt expect it, but i still had a little inkling of hope that they would release it in english.

Don't see why they would have moved it to the PSP in the first place. I know they wanted to reduce production costs, but they already put so much money into developing the new engine for the first game, and since that's now complete a new one for the PS3 would have cost far less anyway and would have retained their market in the Americas. Well, they've blown it now, and all i can hope for is that III gets released on Vita in english, though i doubt anything that wonderful would happen.

Remember, there are no stupid questions. Just stupid people- Mr Garrison

hopin for a VC 2 & 3 HD collection for PS3...they would definatly cash in on that...i know alot of people who bought VC1 would buy this (like me)...

some people should adjust this to Sega...

In my experience, VG chartz undertracks.

But according to VGchartz,  in America it's not even close....Valkyria Chronicles 1 outsells Yakuza 3 and 4 combined...and by a wide margin.
