There's not a ton since there are few 3DS/Vita games, but every 3DS/Vita game I know of has sold better on Vita (Conception II and Exerstra). Also, from reports from publishers saying that Vita games exceeded their expectations + all of the new game announcements (of which is heavily in Vita's favor). Another reason for this perception is that the Vita version of PS3/Vita games sell very well and generally on par with the console version (see FFX HD, Dragon's Crown) |
While not without value, limiting the analysis strictly to the small handful of games which appear on both platforms strikes me as an incomplete way to view the issue at best. I mean, per this site, the best selling Vita game, first or third party, is under 400k in Japan. No other game has sold more than 270k, and the tenth-best selling title (which is first party) sits at a meager 130k. There are 73 3DS games that have sold more than the #10 Vita seller. I find it extremely difficult to look at this data and conclude that "the Vita, like the PSP before it sees better sales on 3rd party software."
