Forums - Sony Discussion - Tales PS Vita games haven’t been brought to North America due to poor sales

Despite fan interest, Namco Bandai hasn’t released the two Tales games for the PlayStation Vita. Series producer Hideo Baba told Kotaku that the reason for this is due to the system’s poor sales. If things do turn around, “then it’s something we could consider.”

Baba commented:

“Unfortunately, at this present time we don’t have any plans to release any of the Vita titles. One of the main reasons is, unfortunately the PlayStation Vita is doing relatively poorly in North America, so it’s one of those things that if the numbers increased considerably, then it’s something we could consider.”

On the bright side, we will be getting some Tales content this summer. Tales of Xillia is due out on August 6.

As long as its on PS3, no worries.

But I wish they still brought the series to the 360.

Tales don't come to the Vita: Baba is honest.

Type-0 doesn't come to the Vita: Square sucks.
