C'mon, I want to know when the Retail version will release!


It won't. Tens of thousands nagged Sony into releasing Freedom Wars physically via the blog and petitions, then none of them bought it.

Sony is pretty much done with physical Vita releases.

You compare Freedom Wars to Resident Evil the only reason why Resident Evil Revelation 2 will sell a little on Vita is because it's a late port


Freedom Wars was originally going to be digital only, people begged for physical, then didn't buy it.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is going to be digital only. people are starting beg for physical. What do you think the outcome will be?

At first I was considering getting this game on Vita, but then I realized I wouldn't be able to play co-op with my wife.

1600 person signed to the petition and the games sold nearly 200k copie so how do you know those 1600 person didn't bought the game.

If Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will have a physical release it won't sell a lot because it'a a late port and those first game didn't came to Vita



Actually that was just for to Europe. 80,000 sales is pathetic in a bigger market than the US for Vita, if that's even right (VGC don't really track Europe). There's plenty of stock languishing on shelves, it was released at a discounted price already.

It certainly didn't meet Sony's expectations, if it had, Oreshika would have had a physical release too.

Those kind of games don't suit western taste it's your problem if you had a big expectation ,Oreshika look even more niche.

You mean Sony's problem right? But they listened to their fans, got burned and likely won't make that "mistake" again.

Since Sony are realeasing digital only games as of now they might as well lower memory card prices to compensate for that.

And yet Muppets Movie Adventures megabombed physically in Europe too, but we're seeing a physical release of that Looney Tunes game.

I do have to wonder why Japanese games get the shorter end of the stick from SCEE.

Sony didn't comment on Freedom war sales so you can say they happy with Freedom war sales or not.

Actions speak louder than words. Announcing this as a digital release, Orisheki as a digital release etc says to me they're not happy with the sales of physical to want to continue with it for the most part.

Kresnik, if Looney Tunes gets a physical release I will be livid!
