This is irrelevant to the current debate, given that the console versions would undercut sales of Call of Duty on Vita, whereas Mario Kart would be a unique game with no immediate competitor, and would thus serve as a reason to buy the console.

so why is it that CoD given only 6 months can sell half as much as mario kart ds which took at least 3 or 4 years to sell what its sold on both the 360 and ps3 when each version of the game has to compete with at least 3 or so other platforms ( for example the ps3 version competes with 360 and wii )

I'm not entirely sure what we're talking about here. I'm saying that Call of Duty's ability to be a system-seller for Vita will be impaired for various reasons, and the game's overall sales numbers and speed at which it sells are not relevant to the argument that it could be. This isn't a Mario Kart v. CoD debate.


Mario games are not known for its short sale gains, they come over time in a steady manner. They show the greatest legs.  o_O Q it's hard debating with you when I have no idea what point you are trying to get across with.

 

Also you mentioned why buy a 3DS, the same thing can be applied as to why someone will buy a 'PS3 instead of a 360 or a DS over PSP. Mario kart 3DS has value to justify that instead of buying a Kart Wii bundle. It has a different experience, it's not simply just a port.

all im saying is that CoD can be considered to be system seller the same way mario kart can i didn't realise that that was hard to pick up on as its what i said before

furthermore you gave a point about opting to buy it on consoles instead but obviously that would also be a problem for the 3ds as well why is someone going to pay around $300 for a 3ds with mario kart 3d when they can just get the wii mario kart bundle for $150?

Why buy a PSvita and COD on it when you can just buy the game and play it ont he PS3, Wii, 360?

VITA = portable

PS3/360 = not portable

 

simple concept really.
