Talking more about the bombage of the launch third party games.
That fair?
Did they really bomb though?
Outside of Minnagolf, all those games would have done about the same numbers if released today on 3DS, PS3, PSP. These are all minor 30k or less selling games to Japan. Only Minna no Golf is the kind of game that should be doing 150k+ Maybe Lord of Apocalypse but it's a sequel to a crappy monster hunter that no one thought was any good.
I don't think the sales are great for anything, Vita, but it just seems kind of...expected?
Will be interesting to see how Tales of Innocence R sells. It's out in a month and on PSP the Tales low-budget-no-effort titles did about 100k openings. Then again it's got the FFXIII-2, Ni no Kuni problem of being a remake/port of a game people didn't care for in the first place. Will probably bomb, but maybe it'll do 50-60k opening. I'm going to be the dumb Tales fan I am and import it for a billion dollars or whatever the current exchange rate is.
