Who ever is in charge of marketing at the Sony gaming department needs to be fired. They put out great gaming consoles, but they don't know how to market their product. The vita seems to be a great little gaming unit, but most people in Canada/USA don't even know it's coming out or if they do they don't know what it's capable of. I don't know why Sony doesn't change things up already. When they do advertise it's all about how technical the product is and not about how much fun you can have using it.

The only thing I've seen for the VITA is that Taco Bell sposored commercial. They really do need to start better merketing! XD

I haven't even seen that one.
Remember that uncharted 3 commercial with Harrison Ford? They get Indian Fucking Jones to be in a commercial, and all they can do is sit him down on a couch and have him talk about how real the game is LOL.

I haven't even seen that commercial! XD Let alone most Sony commercials...

Persona 4, Unnannounced new atlus game, Dragon's crown, Monster Hunter, Little Busters (wish they would bring this to the states), new kojima game, FFX and Zone of Enders collection = Vita is going to simply explode in Japan.

Still really really early!

Is this a post of wishful thinking? An Atlus game we've never heard of and remakes/ports of PS2 games? Why is Monster Hunter automatically assumed? Not saying it won't happen, but until it's announced, why should we assume it?

lol, you guys are crazy. These games are worshipped in Japan. Why assume Monster Hunter?

You guys are the wishful thinkers rofl

I think this is how the PS3 chalkboard came to be. Let's make one for the PSV.

lol. I'm not saying those games are huge by themselves. Well, MH is. It's about the library, not a single game. It was my understanding that the chalk board came from people hoping that each game would be the ps3's "halo". But it's not about being "halo-like", it's about creating a library of mediocre games that have hypnotic power over the audience. Obviously they've been paying a lot of attention to Nintendo for the past 12 years, and it's finally starting to show.

EDIT: ehhh, that last part is a bit iffy. They should be splitting up those titles by a year each to maximize profit off their sheep.

I hope for your sake that this is a projection for only a single store chain and not the entire market.

Not quite. Pre-orders.
