it doesn't have to be mainstream to sell some consoles. It has a niche like certain other franchises and thats good enough for some. Think Disgaea, sells between 400-600k each entry, but its a set fanbase who they know will buy each game. As long as their development budget isn't too high(and with disgaea...u know it isn't) they make plenty of profit. Gravity Daze will assuredly not sell MILLIONs but all it needs is a few hundreds. Convince anime lovers of the system, and subsequently when/if it is good enough to warrent a sequel they will be right there to lap it up. Thats a 100k new stable fans of the Vita by default :) |
Disgaea has an establish fanabse though and this does not. Unless word of mouth travel far and wide and it gains a cult following like Valkyria Chronicle I very much doubt it will sell many systems. Even a cult hit like VC didn't sell many PS3. Again, I am very interest in this game and if I get a Vita at launch this will likely be my first title even before Uncharted, but I am a very very small minority at best. This alone will not move unit, the Vita in fact has very little software that will move unit by itself at launch. I expect it start slow and gradually move more unit as a collection of game that someone might want begins to materialise.
