Is the One Piece game multiplatform?

I really don't understand why would you launch such a major franchise game in a dying platform.

Heavy is going to get annihilated for doubling down on his bet that the WiiU would drop below 100k.

[3DS] Tousouchuu: Shijou Saikyou no Hunter-Tach...! <ACT> (Bandai Namco) {2012.07.05} - 34.101 / 316.724 (+77%)

Watching this game has become a hobby for me. Its hilarious how leggy it is.

And Pokemon is going to cross 3million sold before it tuckers out. So much for a flop.
 
I wonder if people like Paper Mario SS once they've played it. They are sure buying a lot of it, though...

/edit/ Amazon reviews are pretty bad FWIW.

Before Animal Crossing came out, I totally thought it wouldn't repeat the success of the DS game.

How wrong could I have been. It's almost inspring me to pick it up.

edit: I'm not as worried about the WiiU as others. It's not good, but when games get announced, it'll pick up.

What's this series and what's up with those magical legs?
 
Is the PSP dying?

PSP # | 65.859 | 33.002 | 101.121 | 857.713 | 2.016.406 | 19.587.097 |

That's what the numbers indicate.

It surely didn't get killed as fast as the DS did, but that's just because Sony can't afford to kill it.

I just don't really understand why not go multiplat, like PSP + 3DS. You could easily have another 120, 130k sales in there.

If anybody sees a reason though, I'd sure like to be enlightened.
 
Is the One Piece game multiplatform?

I really don't understand why would you launch such a major franchise game in a dying platform.

I don't think PSP is a dying platform as for now, in fact this week has sold more than all other platorms bar 3DS and Wii U, besides iirc other games have been announced to release on PSP for 2013.

is it really sold out? Hasn't Japan-GAF confirmed that the console can be easily found in stores?? (don't know maybe I am misremembering...)

Some people are saying it was periodically selling out, but that doesn't mean much without nationwide sell-through figures.

Is it possible that 3DS dominating eats some of the U sales? I mean, most Japanese would prefer to buy 3DS first before buying Wii U.
