Even the PS1/PS2 ones didn't crack 1m. This does actually look like a better fit for the Vita.

However note you're listing mega blockbuster franchises. Other than Yokai's Watch, how many other 3DS JRPGs sold like gangbusters that weren't Dragon Quest or Pokemon?

Monster Hunter would have probably shifted a few million extra Vita systems had it not moved onto 3DS.

Yes, I'm listing them but does that make any difference? Those are the ones that sell on DS. JRPGS are JRPGS. I will say that MH might do well on PSV but not as well as 3DS. The Final Fantasy games sell well on both but other than that I've got nothing.


My point was, the SaGa games are historically far more niche than any of the other franchises you listed and is much more on the levels of the games already appearing on Vita such as Ys.

We'll never know what Monster Hunter would have done for Vita, it clearly gave the 3DS a huge boost and was a great move from Nintendo. 

All I'm trying to say is that because the 3DS has a bigger userbase, doesn't automatically qualify that every single game will sell better on it than Vita and isn't necessarily sacrificing "millions" of sales.
