I expect them to release it on its 10th year anniversary, and an announcement later on this year. I loved XII; it's one of my favorite FF games, so I would an HD-international version of it.

It's a very smart thing to say to incite and gauge interest. Anyways, I'm sure it is coming.

Hadn't though of that, makes a lot of sense

The PS3 version of Final Fantasy X HD has outsold the Vita version.
Some people want the game in HD, the Vita´s display isn´t HD and X doesn´t even run at native res on the Vita.
More options are better than less.
End.
I couldn't get into FFXII. I tried playing through it twice, and I just couldn't do it. The gameplay was interesting, but the story was just ok, and it took FOREVER to get anywhere. Fucking sand sea...

The numbers we have would actually suggest the game on both platforms is at about statistical tie level. .27 vs .24 million. Then there is the fact that there is only 1 SKU on the PS3. All versions of that game contain both FFX and FFX-2. There is also a stand alone sku for FFX HD for Vita. That might make up the remaining 30k. I think the standalone version did 15k on launch so it's pretty highly plausible they are equal which is no small feat considering the Vita version is so gimped in comparison.
I do concur that more options are better than less for the consumer in most cases. Only the Vita fanboy in me that wants the platform to be more successful would think of making it exclusive. Vita failed too hard in the west for a company with global release plans to rely soley on that platform though :-/

Indeed, it appears only the Vita twin pack was tracked on vgchartz and not the standalone FFX or FFX-2 SKUs, so the numbers are under. Include digital for both (which we sort of have, given that Famitsu gave out that info for January but not December) and they're both in the region of 280k-300k (if someone would take the time to add the numbers from Famitsu properly I'd be very grateful), with PS3 ahead by about 10k.

It was very successful on the Vita, that is true, but to be brutally honest:
An exclusive FF XII HD exclusive wouldn´t change much in the grand scheme of things, Vita needs it´s own exlusive games.
...and I say that as someone who will get X HD on his Vita !
No need to wait, you can play FF12 in HD on emulator right now, there even is a fan translation of the Japan-only zodiac job system version available. FF12 is one of the best titles in the entire series if you understand and make use of the gambit system.
I also tried playing through it twice, and had to drop it before realizing how great, dynamic and strategic the combat system can be when using gambits proberly. You do not even have to push a botton since complex tasks can be fully autmated using gambits.

It would've at the consoles infancy. People would have gravitated torwards the platform because the likely assumption would be that more are coming. It's a bit late now with the reputation being established and all.
I think having Type 0 and FFX HD as exclusives would have done awesome for Vita. Hell look at how well FFXHD boosted sales for the platform this late in the game. It was even a Multiplat and where did the hardware sales go... to the Vita.
