LOL KIllzone and Resistance are spin-off shooters, and shooters are not at all popular in Japan. Gundam Breaker is also available on PS3 where it sold well, so taking the sales of the Vita version in isolation is misleading, especially since it was released months after the PS3 version and was a mere port basically. The others have performed disasterously though, but you forget that Bayo 2 is the sequel to a game that sold 300k+ in Japan, unlike the likes of Kagero, for example. And this does not contradict my point at all... I did say that Bayo 2 is ONE of the biggest flops in recent memory, and that is totally true. The examples you have provided do not add anything new at all, if anything but to show that you are willing to provide misleading examples to spin Bayo 2's numbers into something less horrific than they actually are. And frankly, I would personally add Tropical Freeze to your list... it is a game that barely sold 10% of what its predecessor sold, and has failed to even reach half the sales that the 3DS port of Tropical Freeze sold, so that is a pretty massive flop imo. |
Your comment was entirely lacking in perspective. If you actually look at the numbers, it is nowhere near "one of the biggest flops in recent memory".
