I know you can. It won't make it right though. 1 - First party game that helps the system - in the end that's the whole point. Games that will take Vita out of the hole, but since sony first party is not known to be able to do that, I used third party - the exception is soul sacrifice, which we don't know yet. 2 - Exclusive for 1 year (not timed, as no one knew about the Wii U Version). Not really exclusive too, as it's more or less a tri updated game. But there's also MH4 announcement, but you forgot, right? DQ games too. Did you know - DQ spin-off sold more than all vita games combined in japan, at least till 1 month ago or so. But it's still an ok situation right? 3 - Price drop? So? I never said it's bad. In fact that would help vita a lot. But it needs to happen. And since it's almost sure it happens in the second semester, as 95% price cuts do, it's not stated in the OP - as written there with all the words Big games take a while to get ready too. This was supposed to be vita's time of harvest not plantation. |
And it won't mean you'll listen to reason either.
1. Yeah first party games help sell systems. Glad you agree with me here because it is at the crux of why you're OP is frivolous.
2. Yeah, but it's still going to be on the wiiU. And don't let my laughter upset you when I giggle that a reason you bought a console is in part for a game that you've never played, even when there is one on a system you do currently own.
3. Yeah, but you never mentioned it as a reason for buying the system either...unless the only reasons you bought the system was for a first party game and another game that you've never played.
Big games DO take a while to get ready. The problem is you're IGNORING all the big games because you demand that only one type of game can satisfy what they need. You also IGNORE the fact that not every game gets announced 6 months + before release. You're also IGNORING big selling games, simply because they will be on another system, like the upcoming dragon's crown by vanillaware, per. Face it, vic, You're NOT making a point here that Vita is in trouble. You're making a point that Vita needs what YOU think it needs, based on evidence which hasn't been historically proven!
And this is the very reason people say that your OP is biased. It's because the metric doesn't make any sense. For instance the wii. The wii was doing great so long as nintendo made games for it. Everyone said, "yeah but it doesn't have any third party exclusives". Don't let Rol's commentary sway your thinking when HE'S ONE of those people who said third parties don't support the wii with good games, AS I DID MYSELF. BUT, the wii didn't NEED third party games, it just would have helped when they themselves STOPPED MAKING GAMES.
You're even ignoring the whole crossbuy incentive. It's an idea that if someone simply buys a vita, they will be able to play those ported games for FREE. No, there is a LOT, you are missing in your metrics.
