Huge franchises are really going to pump some life into Vita. It's by far the best handheld on the market today and now the games are going to prove it!

Sony needs to beg Capcom for a new monster hunter game if they want the Vita to take off in Japan.

A remake of a pretty recent Tales game...... might get some units off the shelves but I dont expect big numbers.

No offense Kyle but you're not good at this marketing stuff.

"Vita situation under control?"

It sounds like the Iraqi defense minister going "We are kicking the Americans asses, there is nothing to worry about."

Never defend.

Only convey the positive.

it may help but tales of innocence R is a remake of a DS game, gravity rush coming out in early feb may help though.

We might see some Competition!

Let's see how well Tales of Innocence R sells compared to Tales of Abyss 3DS and Tales of Innocence DS fair.

Huge franchises

kylemoffattscea

The Tales of series is "huge"? LOL.Good one.:lol:

Dragon Quest, Kingdom Hearts, Monster Hunter and Final Fantasy could help turn things around though.

With anything. It takes pratice to be good at spin doctoring. Give him time.

Vita situation undercontrol can also mean that the sales will stop from dropping and hopefully level off with the release of this title.

Positive note- it may even be a pivotal moment to show that Vita can get games that appeal to the Japanese market.

I espect sales to raise from 18k to 20k at best and then drop back down the next week. Vita is a flop.

It should do better this week, but I wouldn't expect a remake to move a huge number of vita units.

Looks like a Ps1 game...

Dy_WarriorsXoXo

No it doesn't PS1 games look like crap.

To me they always looked like crap (I couldn't stand looking at PS1 games after I got an N64)

2 factual and 3 opinionated fails right here. Tales can;t save anything when tales barely sales that well compared and it never moves consoles. Tales is not a franchise that would help in the bigger release in the other 2 regions. OP Tales is one of the worst rpgs I have ever seen.. Nacmo has not had an "Impressive" selling game in years and I believe it's due to lack of quality. It's in the same vein as Dynasty Warriors.

If you play Jrpgsyes PS1 games look like crap. Play games that actually don;t rely on cutscenes and wow, all of a sudden PS1 games are on par with N64 games, But that's a different topic. Yourstatement however is invalid using Jrpgs as an example.

I don't think Tales game is going to be a system seller, I think only two games from Tales sold over a million and that was barely.

It may help it slightly, but i think Gravity Daze will do more.

Damn you fail at reading. If only like 2 games out of around 20games sell over million then that is not a system sales and like I said those were barley. And further more this is remake which means it will not sell well as the original. And sure this might help Vita a bit, but will have minimum impact, hard to call it system mover.

I doubt a remake of a DS game released in 2009, that sold 240k and had horrible fan reception is going to light the sales charts :o

Actually not really, after checking some of the recent sales of Tales series they are not that good. Which is really sad actually since Phantasia and Symphonia are some of my favorite rpgs.

Xillia still managed to sell almost 800 000 copies since its release, its pretty good for a Tales. It might not boost Vita's sale up the roof but we could still end up surprised.

Yeah but they're really cheap to make...that's why Namco keeps churning them out.
