Since the first one sold the best in NA, Sega would be foolish, not to release any further sequel in the NA market. |
You are so right, i was also let down by the news of it transitioning to handheld, since i dont like handhelds my self, but well now that the PS TV is coming out i will at least get to play Valkyria Chronicles 2 on a proper TV, and maybe just maybe i might buy Valkyria Chronicles 3 and try to get through it despite it being on japanese...
imagine a localized Valkyria Chronicles collection with all 3 games + DLC on PS4, day 1 buy for me.
i mean it sounds like something to good to be true, BUT the truth is that Valkyria Chronicles 1 (PS3) sold 1.190.000 units out of which 670.000 units were sold just in NA, that is more than the total sales of Valkyria Chronicles 2 (510.000 units) and Valkyria Chronicles 3 (210.000 units), the reason why SEGA hasnt localized the third game is beyond me...
also i think that our opinion of it going to handheld being a bad decision can be viewed through the sales of the sequels, that are just far from the first one, seems like a lot people (like us) didnt want a handheld game.
