Honestly, I won't be surprised if persona 5 comes to ps2 or even ps3 if it comes late enough when the nex-gen is looming because these type of games are the hardest of the hardcore. They don't get any promotion whatsoever and only their hardcore followers know they exist.In such, userbase doesn't affect sales as much as wherethe fanbase is because they don't really have the hype and media talk driving their sales. Disgaea 3 is a good example. It's on par with the previous iterations even though it was released on almost a 10X smaller userbase. Big games benefit from userbase much more that hardcore niche titles. Fire emblem for the wii could be another example. I remember I didn't even know it was released yet for wii till someone corrected me. Nintendo sure doesn't advertise it like wii fit. That said, how many know that Ar Tonelico 2 is coming to the States Jan 30, 2009? I bet not many knew or even care. |
I care!
