There are some bombs this week. Akiba's Trip 2 didn't exactly light up the charts but it was good enough for forth place in a low week. 50k if you add both versions. Good that the Vita version beat the PS3 version easily. I guess this is a game that you don't want to be caught by your parents playing on the big screen.

Exstetra fizzled on the Vita but damn, it completely bombed on the 3DS. I hope it wasn't a good game that deserved better.

Akiba 2 actually beats Akiba 1 opening, and we don't know how much it sold digitally.

For Exstetra, releasing the same day as Akiba 2 definitely didn't help (I myself picked Akiba 2 instead of Exstetra). But it's true the 3DS version is a total disaster : 80% of the shipment is on shelves and isn't going anywhere. Japanese publishers should stop wasting money in doing multiplats that people will naturally buy on Vita.
