A while ago actual. The X360 got several and they all sold terribly, they only released them in Japan I think. Bad idea.


It probably wouldnt sell as many in the West if they wanted to lol.

It would probably sell more than it did in Japan. Japan literally hates the 360. Most of America seems to like it, it would do better.

I wonder if the Vita can maintain the range of 15k to 20k in Japan until some blockbuster Japanese content starts hitting the system.

I believe if Square-Enix just announces a brand new Final Fantasy game for the Vita that would boost sales for the platform. Same thing for Capcom if they announce something with Monster Hunter in the title.


Pretty sure thats going to happen eventually, I'm still surprised MH came to 360 and wow it actually got to the charts!

Would love to see a new Dissidia game *_*, too bad it wont be a fighter.

I know that it will happen eventually. But Square-Enix was very very late to the PSP party.

So they need to jump on board much quicker. Army Corps of Hell is a glimmer of hope in regards to maybe they have more games in the pipeline. It looks and feels like a launch title game and I hope they don't take forever to bring out more games that have much more polish.

I'm hoping for a 2D remake of Final Fantasy III being released in 2013 (you know to making it a gimmick of the number 3!?)!

I'm also hoping for a 2D high res remake of FFV, would be nice to see a fully 3D graphics of the game, but I doubt they'll do that, if they go towards 3D figures, I think they would make it similar to FF3 DS or FFIV DS with FFV.

I hope they release FFType 0, I think it has more chance of being released this year in the US on the Vita, would help sales alot, and cant forget about Before Crisis FFVII which was rumored to come out on the PSP years ago.

 

Cant wait for E3 2012 *__*

If those are to happen, they damn well better have brand new titles coming.

Square-Enix has become a pathetic company and remakes will not redirect the business except to tell the fans "yeah, we just don't care anymore".

PlayStation Vita should not be a remake machine. Sony needs to grow some balls and take the lead.

 

I'm just so fucking pissed off at Sony. Every single time they have nothing to stop them from being back to their dominate self, they end up stopping themselves. *punches Jack Tretton in the face*.

Kaz calm down. There is no reason to get that mad. Just look at his lovable face:



hahahaha

Oh Wii! You want to be the first for everything right?!
It's obvious you want to dissappear sooner than PS2. Go Wii!

Seriously, can anyone think of a killer app for the Vita other than Monster Hunter?

*Looks at how only Monster Hunter games have broken a million sales on the PSP in Japan*

Oh... never mind.

Yeah, I don't see what the Vita has going for it. Even if it also gets Monster Hunter 4, are people willing to buy a new system solely for the same game they can get on a cheaper system in HD? At this point, the best games I think will really help the Vita are PS2 games like FFX and the MGS collection.


In Japan, Portables > Consoles

From the looks of it, it's worse than that. The DS nearly beat the rest of the 7th gen systems combined for a while, and the PSP only did as well as it did because of one notable franchise. Remember, the Monster Hunter games account for about a quarter of all PSP software in Japanese history. Losing that title as an exclusive is a bigger deal than Nintendo losing Mario or Pokemon on the handheld sphere there, if only because the 3DS would still have the other franchise and Animal Crossing and whatnot to compensate.

What I'm trying to say is, the PSP might have been a sucess only because of a single franchise. Without the franchise, the future of the gaming industry in Japan could be synonymous with the 3DS exclusively, as opposed to handhelds in general.

I'm probably wrong. But when one handheld sells so much without any big new titles, I get suspicious.

Were not making fun of him we just don't like him. He seems really snobby at times.
