Phantasy Star Online 2 is coming in Japan and I think it has a shot at being the game that saves the Vita.

I predict hardware sales boost and 6 digits software sales.

Not only PSO is a strong franchise, it also resembles Monster Hunter, which is known to have saved the PSP (I think MH is kind of a rip off of PSO, but that's just me).

Thoughts? How much you think PSO2 will help the PS Vita in Japan?

A price cut would save the Vita. But PSO rules, so it may help A LOT, Don't know what's going on lately on Japan's market. Games aren't selling like they used to. (Except maybe Pokemon and Animal Crossing =D )

I think it could help out a bit. MMOs on a hand held just sounds awesome to me.

It will help the Vita as much as Persona did. To begin with that day will be packed with releases for both the 3DS and the Vita, it's not like the franchise is the biggest selling series either.

What did the other Phantasy Star games sell? I have heared of the series, but it never seemed very big to me...

no it won't

It begins!

B-E-L-I-E-V-E!

Threads like this will kill the Vita.

PSO was one of my favourite games of all-time, but PSO2 is not a system seller.

Your lack of faith will kill the Vita. ;_;
