I just don't think anyone is going to walk into Walmart and buy it on a whim. This game appeals to a select niche. Fans of both Sony and fighting games. There's plenty of Sony fans, but are they all fighting fans. And while the success of Street Fighter 4 shows a continued fan base of fighting games, are they all interested in a Sony mash up? Time will tell, but I expect the sales to be front loaded. The hardcore Sony-Fighter fans will preorder or buy day one, but even if it's the best fighting game on the PS3/Vita I just don't see it having the kind of appeal that casual purchasers would pick it up based on it's cover.
