Not to mention its a pretty iffy situation to do so, since the sales for Tales of Symphonia 2 were mediocre at best.

It sold the same as Vesperia 360 and better than any of the handheld Tales worldwide.  Not bad for a cheapo spinoff developed mainly by team newbies.

Well, according to VGChartz, it sold 100,000 less than Vesperia for 360 and 800,000 units less than its GC prequel.  Now I'm not going to call 350,000 units sold a 'failure', but going from a million to 350,000 units isn't a positive shift for a series...

It's not a full sequel, it's a budget spinoff made by mostly new staff.   The big budget spiritual sequel from the same team was actually Vesperia.

And the main reason VGC has Vesperia significantly ahead is the Euro release.  When DOTW gets released there, it'll catch right back up.
