I know what you mean. I've been looking into muramasa and shahid even hinted that it would come out in europe. I didnt want to import because of the DLC thats coming out.
I'm totally importing Ys though. Not gonna wait for them to decide to bring it out here.
Guilty Gear AC+R is another one that hasnt seen an euro release yet. It cant be imported at all cause its digital only. I think europe has more Vitas sold than the US, so these policies are bogus.

according to VGC were the highest, but (without confirming) were the lowest software sales... Imports? just look at how poorly games do here when NA gets them first

Indeed. Its annoying because this doesnt happen with Nintendo and the 3DS. We get stuff at the same time or very near (and sometimes before).
This has got to be a Sony issue.

It is absolutely nothing to do with Sony. It is a 3rd party issue. Atlus have no European division and only a small US one. All their resources go into getting the US translation out of the door. Then they have tofind and negotiate European publishing/distribution with a company that does operate in Europe. This is what adds the "delay" that ignorant, entitled "wah were being screwed over" gamers think is just a company making them wait for the sake of it.
The reason that 3DS one isn't the same is because Ni tendo are the Western Publisher and Nintendo are having to pick up a lot of these Japanese titles themselves in the West just to get them released at all.
This is why I'll wait a few months for Dragons Crown too because its better late than never and if they make money on it future games will also get UK releases and maybe even Atlus will be able to think about setting up a European arm so we can have games more quickly.
This is the downside of the current main Vita games. They're by Japan only developers which is why were relying on Xseed etc to pick up the slack.
Plus Namco etc are just refusing a western release at all. (Again why Nintendo have picked up some of their games for the West)
