Why are people expecting the Vita to do better, when there is no software released for it? I wonder if Persona will help to bump sales a bit :-?

All I can Vita is domed for now.

Anyway, can't wait for June. *giggles*


Seems people ITT have forgotten about P4G ;)


Shh! why did you spilled it. You! you!

P4G is not alone though Gundam Seed Destiny. July is Solid aswell with Trail remake and Ys celcetta on the Horizon. We have hatsune Miku in summer in JP. Super Robot wars for Next year I think Phantasy Star online 2.

We still don't know the Fall, Holiday line-up for Vita.

I can help you a bit there. Got a handy picture ready. (Need to view it full size)

Maybe I should post this in the official thread?

Nothing wrong making a thread with that.

Should grow with E3, with a most of those TBA's probably getting a date then as well.

I think it's only fair that we give poor Gilgamesh a fitting video as well...

I'm not one to worry about consoles with slow starts, I never once worried about the 3DS. But now I'm officially worried about Vita.

It's not just that it's doing bad, horrible considering it's a handheld (talking about Japan). It just doesn't have any games that appeal to Japanese gamers.

I really hope that the holiday season + a price cut + CoD, Bioshock, etc. can lift the sales of Vita to healthy standards (talking about WW sales), but I wouldn't hold my breath, seeing as Western games hardly ever move HW when it comes to handheld gaming

Horrible drop off for Kingdom Hearts, just horrible.

Your CoD and Bioshock idea won't help with your worry for the Japanese market. It might not even help with the Western Market.

I was talking about WW sales in that last paragraph, I probably didn't express myself well.

Not well enough obviously! I thought you were just talking about one territory.

Still, most people seem to like the feature of having a big screen, microphone to shout cuss words in, and a full controller to be able to play those types of games. I asked around 3 people (all of which were big Sony Fans) and they saud they would rather stick with their PS3.

I think is better for Sony to released new colors of psvita and new gamesbefore doing a price cut.



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m
