Bad strategy altogether. Sony went with a western centric approach at launch instead of carrying over the strength of the PSP, which are Japanese games.
Continuing to support the PSP in Japan, essentially made the Vita compete with it predecessor. They tried to do another PS2 with PS3 life cycle but it backfired. No incentives at all for 3rd party devs to make games exclusively on the Vita.
The lack of localization of those most wanted PSP/PSV Japanese games is also a big elephant in the room.
Now we don't even know what Sony is planning with the VTV, it seems like they used Japan as a beta test country but without any hint of it coming over to the English speaking market.
Too many areas needs fixing. I'm still hopeful Gio and his localization Studio give us something. |
Since when japanease game was system sellers in west except of some game like Final Fantasy,MGS and Kindoms Herts the rest of game are not system sellers in west it's don't even sold well
|
When one of those games is actually a Final Fantasy? and do you really believe the fans of Valkyria Chronicles, Tales Of etc... won't give a handheld an extra push when its predecessor was successful because of them? and I said ENGLISH SPEAKING market, the west isn't the only market that speaks English.

Are all people who buy a game is consider a fans of this games idon't think so,sure fans will buy a console for it's prefered games but other peoples would not
I think Valkyria Chronicles and Tale sold 100k on psp,if we consider all of them are big fans and will buy a console for those game psv will only have sold 200 k more sales,psv will still be a big fail.

I think its common sense that not all people are fans of certain games. So I am not sure what you are trying to prove with that comment but hear me out and try not to undermine the importance of these types of games because they also made other consoles and handheld's libraries great.
Just think about it. How can the Vita get any system sellers, if they can't even localized the mid-tier games, call them niche or whatever but getting those over can build confidence that the system is actually worth investing in, which as we all know the majority of the 3rd party community isn't doing.
So what we are really after here is to gain momentum that could spur more support and these games can be the catalyst for that because
1) They are well known franchises (not as popular as before but still known through out the community).
2) They already have a fanbase you can bring over.
3) They are readily available for the English speaking market (since they are only stuck in Japan)
4) They can easily expand the exclusive library on the device.
Sony needs to play with what made the PSP a success but they need to do it from the bottom up.

Fans will buy a console just for their favorite game ,even if their game are bad ,the majority of people are interesting in the whole library for majority of people a console without big console ip are not a console worth to invest on it.
Foe me what it made psp a sucess is console like game not japaneases games localisation or handheld like game.

Well then its good to know that its only your opinion because it certainly not reality because if I am not mistaken Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo, Kingdom Hearts are all Japanese games that were localized and was successful on a handheld like the PSP. The DS has them and the 3DS sure does too now.
