I was directly quoting Sony enthusiasts' choice of words in each case before each game released.) Not hitting a million sales means nothing when they're still the second and third most sold games in the Vita library. Other than "the price is too high" or "has a lot of great games, but too many ports." No. We haven't. We haven't made a stupid excuse like the Vita not selling because people are mistaking it for the PSP, yet every other week we get a post saying people don't know the difference between the Wii U and the Wii. (I don't agree with the Wii/Wii U confusion, but your argument makes no sense in comparison since PSP/Vita are not remotely similar in name) Even though I'm a Vita and 3DS fan, yeah. The Vita fanbase has been too good for that. Nintendo fans did the same thing with the DS. People don't know the difference between the DS and 3DS, a system selling atleast 70,000 a week, and once that price drop hit hasn't sold less than 120,000 a week. Yeah. People CLEARLY didn't know the difference between the DS and 3DS(/s.) |
Being the 2nd and 3rd highest selling game of Vita's library is not saying much when the system hasn't produced a single million seller in going on 2 years on the market. That means there isn't a single game that 1 in 5 Vita owners agree is worth buying the system for. By the way, prior to the price cut, the 3DS already had a million seller. And it wasn't just the price cut that moved systems. It was the games that released immediately following the price cut. If price cuts were the end all/be all/cure all of retail, the $99 Gamecube would have thrived, and Nokia's N-Gage would still be on the market since retailers were trying to give the damn thing away just to get it out of their stores when all was said and done. You don't sit at the top of the hardware chart week in and week out and thrash your competition by an over 6 to 1 ratio just by price alone. You have to have the software that people want in order to back it up.
