Let me explain to you again. My original argument was I don't believe core audiences in the west care about handheld consoles. The list I posted is a fine example of how core sales declined on the PSP.

Forget MH and GTA. I'm more concerned that few handheld core games can achieve a million nowadays.

Let me explain again, whether you think Mario is core or not is irrelevant. Mario is core to many of us, so wrong and incorrect, core titles to sell well on handhelds.

Oh! I see what you're doing. You're saying as long as some core games do well my argument doesen't hold water.

Now this begs the question... why the fuck are you bothering me? I'm not denying a few core games still do well. I'm aruging most core games on handheld platforms are struggling.

You have no proof of that because this gen has just got started lol. Wow really the comparison of lifetime sells of PSP games is all you got? Comparing them to what one year of sales?

In the same period of time PSP actually sold significantly more hardware therefore it was doing a better job at moving software.

I feel Vita also has a better stronger library than PSP had early on. Just more proof core games are struggling on hand held platforms. Which is bad for Vita considering its aimed at core gamers.
