Based off of the reception of Vita on the internet, I wouldn't be surprised if it did far better here in the west than Japan.


That's simply my worst fear about Vita.

I play mostly handhelds nowadays, and I play then almost exclusively for japanese games.

On my DS, PSP and 3DS I have only 4 western games - the 2 PSP GTAs, GTA Chinatown Wars and Scribblenauts. While the first two are ok (even though lame compared to the PS2 GTAs), the others are at most meh games (I heard the Super Scribblenauts was miles better than the first, though). I just feel western developers just don't give their best when developing handheld games. Add this to my japanese inclined taste in gaming and there you go, Vita's fate in japan is absolutely major for me!

Sony should treat japan as a priority and fix the sales there!

 


I understand what you mean. A majority of the games I own for DS/PSP are from Japanese companys.

Obviously, this "fear" of mine (lol, over-dramatic word when talking about videogames)  is not wishing that only japan do well, I'm happy for Vita selling nice in the west like it seems to be doing. I'm tempted to buy one for Virtua Tennis - seriously!
