How do you know Hearts bombed or sold below expectations when it sold 250k which is the normal amount for Tales nowadays? Did Tales of Versus bomb? Did Radiant Mythology bomb? Did ToV 360 bomb (yes, I don't even think ToV 360 bombed. It made up good sales in the West actually for a Tales game just because it's a quality RPG.)? I don't think so.
Where did this perception come from that 250k for a DS game is bad? Or for Tales? It's not, and you don't know what you're talking about.

Geez, with expectations that low....
What game has bombed?

This is you thinking Tales games are these insanely huge big budget projects like FF...
The PSP Tales and DS Tales (at least Innocence and Hearts, and Tempest if they didn't spend much which they probably didn't. The game is like 15 hours, outsourced, and mediocre and is considered a spinoff.) have undoubtedly made a profit with the sales they've gotten. Handheld titles don't cost much, especially not Tales...
I don't think ToV 360 really made a profit in Japan, but with Western sales it probably did.

Of course I don't think Final Fantasy titles have the same budgets as Tales games. What kind of idiot do you take me for? (Final Fantasy XII in itself probably costed more than every handhelds Tales combined)
I agree with you that the PSP and the DS Tales (not sure on Hearts or Tempest) did well enough, but I do not think 360 Vesperia or Dawn of the New World did well enough in Japan.
