J-Stars -> Fans already on the system thanks to earlier One Piece/Dragon Ball games.  Also multi-plat with PS3.

 

For those reasons, I really don't think you could've expected much hardware boost from such a lineup.

Good points, but still , with such a great number of titles released, one would expect sales to go much higher if they were so high (for vita standards) the week before with very few and less important releases. 

I have to disagree with the bolded. I could not care less about One piece (never seen the anime, so no connection with the characters) and the dbz are no longer system sellers. There have been so many released recently that people have lost interest in dbz and the franchise in general. I'm sure there are plenty of Bleach, Naruto etc fans who don't like either show. I would buy a vita (if I didn't already have one) for J-stars being the first naruto game released on psvita. I expect quite a few to feel the same. Then again, maybe I am wrong, since these numbers don't support my theory. 

One Piece is more popular than all of those other IPs in Japan though. A One Piece themed Dynasty Warriors nearly did a million on Ps3.
