Forums - Sony - PSV released games

Everyone's talking about Vita's sales and saying it's doomed but I don't think anyone has taken the time to stop and look at the games that are currently out. 

 

Army Corps of Hell - Can't find any written reviews, I don't know how much stock to put in this but on gamefaqs it has a score of 1.3/10 from 3 users. Saw some gameplay footage, looks very similar to pikmin, made by square enix 

Asphalt Injection - Made by gamelof (probably enough said) asphalt games on every other console as well as very similar games.

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend - Multiplat on ps3 and 360 in both the original and vita version 

Disgaea 3 Return - Also on ps3

Dream Club Zero Portable - Dating sim, also on 360

Dungeon Hunter: Alliance (aka Dark Quest) - Also on ps3

F1 2011 - Multiplat on ps3, 360 and 3DS aswell 

Everybody's Golf 6 (aka Hot shots golf) - Has free pc game as well as multiple psp and ps3 games and has minimial changes to actual gameplay 

Little Deviants - Designed to show off and teach users about the Vita's touch controls and other abilities. Contains 30 mini games, by all accounts (of people who played it) is fun. However I doubt it will sell many consoles. 

Lord of Apocalypse - psp version which looks largely identical 

Michael Jackson: The Experience - I probably don't need to say anymore but I will. Also on everything else. 

Ridge Racer - Very little content, will require you to buy dlc for more cars and tracks later. All other versions of this series basically better and every console including the 3DS has one. 

Shinobido 2: Tales of the Ninja - Sequel to psp game looks very good

Touch My Katamari -  Look like good game but there is a Katamari game on every console not likely to sell any systems

Uncharted: Golden Abyss - Very good game, may be overshadowed by the recently released uncharted 3 on the ps3 however

Virtua Tennis 4: World Tour Edition - Multiplat on everything else

So if you actually look at the games the only ones that might be a reason for someone to buy the system (at this point in time) are Army Corps of Hell, Little Deviants, Shinobido 2: Tales of the Ninja and of course Uncharted: Golden Abyss. 

Army Corps of Hell is kind of a niche genre in itself and may just simply be a bad game.

Little Deviants although said to be fun isn't something I see someone buying a system for

Shinobido 2: Tales of the Ninja I believe is the strongest system seller among them at this time, it's exclusive to vita and a sequel to a psp so it's not competing with tiself on the vita and is a very good game from what I can tell. 

Uncharted: Golden Abyss while probably an excellent game has to issue of having to compete with it's "Big brothers" on ps3 one of which released quite recently, as well as catering more to Western audiances then the Japanese 

Personally I believe once games like Gravity Rush, Escape Plan, Persona 4, Ruin, Legend of Heroes Zero no Kiseki and Malicious start coming out the sales will increase accordingly

You know the drill, if something doesn't sell 1billion in a second, it's doomed regardless of what you say so...you know...



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

I still think the Japanse ain't buying it out of love for Sony... They are waiting untill it's profitable.. No need to harm your loved ones.. That's called true love...



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

They should have had a popular japanease game for launch e.g. monster hunter, japanease sales will pick up once some popular japanease games get released, just look at the 3ds. US and europe launch will be saved by COD

I'm hoping Gravity Rush will pull a halo or atleast a Demon souls (which is far more likely)

You had quite a few people saying the Vita had a great launch line up, but in reality there is no such thing. All the people saying these things were extreme fanboys who don't know any better.

I think it had more to do with "launch window" games then people being fanboys.

Yes and considering launch line up are never that good, the Vita launch line up is pretty good.



The Vita lineup is incredible. You're forgetting the Western launch will be compounded with further titles the Japanese didn't get at launch such as Gravity Daze, Wipeout, Modnations, Motostorm, and a slew of multiplats that haven't been downgraded noticeably from their console counterparts.
