I don't know if Vita owners are that great. Why don't great games like Tearaway or Gravity Rush have a higher attach rate? Hell even the highly anticipated Killzone game has dissappointing sales...

All of the games you mentioned sold at least 1m digital copies which VGC doesn't track.


Rol, how do you know that? I know Vita has great online sales but, a million more for each of those games???


In case you didn't notice, Rol was making fun of psvita owners who argue that vgc numbers are not accurate because they don't also include digital sales. He used 1m as an exaggeration and a joke.

Jokes aside, people who bring this point up are right. There are so many psvita games that are digital only and have sold better on vita than ps3 (or very close) according to the developers themselves, so we have no idea what the actual total numbers are The attach ratio keeps growing, as people are still buying games for vita and there are only a few buying new vitas. Also, people need to realize that most sony consoles sell a lot of software, but the sales are spread out, unlike Ninty consoles that sell insane amount of first party games, but the sales of the 3rd parties are by and large considerably lower.  

I know ;), I just wanted to see what he would say if I responsed like that.

Haha. ok, my bad.



Nice to see something positive about the Vita. But if anything, sony has to put more effort into marketing it and making more original games for it
