It wouldn't do any good. GT fans didn't want GT PSP. GT on a handheld isn't GT. It's always going to be a gutted version of the real thing. So why would you want that over the real deal? Many genres make sense on handhelds, sim racers aren't one of them.

Maybe for other car games is duable a portable version.
But GT is all feeling like in a real car, and with the most impressive graphics. None of these features can be accomplished in the PSP, so is a GT in the name, but not in the game (with or without career more). Is some kind of... GT Advance

Polyphony did not waste that much time developing GTP. The game was probably made with a small team in less than a year because downgrading GT4 assets and removing features (that's all they did) couldn't have taken them too long. Also, GTP has outsold GT5
in Japan at a higher pricepoint (4980 VS 5480). So considering the lazy effort, the game had to be profitable for Sony.
But I agree, Sony should never make Polyphony waste their time developing for the PSP again because they don't take the platform seriously and that will end damaging the GT brand (see western reviews of the game).

late but: wow healthy sales all around, well except for PSPGo. but hey no wnats DD after they have heavily invested in UMD games.
well too bad about ToG, perhaps Tales of games aren't suited on the Wii at all. Now its your time to ask for Suikoden, Nintendo, not Tales games.

Waste thier time? i beg to differ; they may have released a less of a steller GT game, but probably they saw the 'revival' of PSP and tried to attract gamer for the system. waste thier time before the game shipped? no. they may regret it now, but i can see the reason why they made it.

I don't know about anyone else, but I was willing to give the style a try when it was first revealed. My major problem with it was that Link winked at the camera at the end of the first trailer. Terrible idea, in my opinion. Breaking the fourth wall is not something I want Link to do. Thankfully, they didn't continue that idea into the final game.

So, basically, its slipping like XII despite holidays extra push. Even if it held itself post-holidays and slips exactly like FFXII all the way (logic says post-holidays would make it slip even more than XII since right now its slipping like it), it won't do 2m, it'd do ~1.915.000. Its going to be somehow amazing if it manages to slip so much that the first week is >80% of the LTD (12 is 79.24%). Somehow amazing.Kurosaki Ichigo said:

We can get hardware figures (Famitsu 12/21-12/27) from that using sinobi figures for the previous week (rounded all but PS3 which is the only Famitsu gave):bttb said:
DS* - ~262,000
WII - ~246,000
PS3 - 125,438
PSP* - ~112,000
360 - ~7,200
* - combining every model
So, considering everything that released last year, do we think that this will go up next year, stay flat, or go down?bttb said:
I'm kind of getting the feeling we'll be seeing around a 4-5% drop next year, assuming we still see a few rather impressive titles pop up that aren't announced yet, just because of the scale of what was released in 2009 and the fact that software sales still went down.
---
Also, it seems we most likely have another Gundam game coming out this quarter. No clue as to the platform(s):

Mentioned it yesterday, its for PSP. There's more info now though:Nirolak said:

It was a bit fishy we didn't have the 5th Gundam Battle Something already, this is why.
Also, another retailer slipped Gran Turismo 5 date.

God of War III also 3/25 with a Trilogy pack releasing that day too (GOW3 + PS3 compilation of 1&2).

I like when unexpected things like this happends with sales. Also with the PS3, who thought in the begining of 2009 that it would be a serious question if the PS3 could actually sell more than the Wii in 2009 (YTD, not LTD). I hope that we will see more unexpected things like these things in 2010 as well, since it makes things more exciting, in my opinion at least I wonder how much FFXIII sales were affected being released in the holidays, or if FFXIII would have sold basicly the same no matter what time of the year it had been released. I am sure that FFXIII being released in the holidays is something positive regarding sales though, and maybe several of people bought FFXIII as a gift to people since it was released in the holidays, but i wonder how much FFXIII would have sold in comparison if it had been released when the PS3 Slim was released or for example in March 2010 instead. Unfortunately we wont know the answer for sure, but i think that it is an interesting question at leastKurosaki Ichigo said:

Out of curiosity, how fast is "very fast"?Chris1964 said:
Faster compared to the other Final Fantasy games?I think that he wanted to show how FFXIII is hold up in sales week after week and how this compares to the other FF games and therefor he mentioned the 3rd week, since that is the upcoming week for FFXIII (we know how much FFXIII sold in the 1st week and in the 2nd week, but not how much it sold in the 3rd week yet). I think that it is an interesting point and that it is interesting to see how FFXIII holds up week after week compared to the other FF gamesGaimeGuy said:

Ye, that is true. I was just wondering if you ment if FFXIII would drop faster compared to how fast the other FF games dropped, or if you ment that FFXIII would drop about just as fast as the other FF games droppedChris1964 said:
But as you say, even if FFXIII drops about the same compared to the other FF games, it would still be a very fast drop, that is true Something like 150k until FFXIII is done selling might be likely to happend, i agree

Given the 2nd week, low chance it seems. Interesting point, it needs to do as much as FFX-2 from week 3 to LTD to reach 2m.Chris1964 said:
FFX-2 sold 306k after the first two weeks. (Big) if FFXIII manages to do that, it'd do 2004k. But given a bigger first week yet a lower 2nd and the whole holidays pushing it, its doesn't look very likely it'll do that 306k. We would have to wait until middle 2011 for Famitsu Top500 to see it though! (2nd thought, maybe just until top100).

Thank you. I am never sure how useful my posts are but I do what I can. I liked doing the Vinnks Village stuff but when the smoke settled after the beginning of the gen and settled into patterns, there wasn't much to write about anymore. For the the last couple of months have been really exciting because different things have been happening. I don't really want another console gen right away (I can't afford it) but part of me is really looking forward to doing the reports again when one starts.

Even if it only hit 400K, I'd say that's pretty significant; only a handful of PS3 games have done as well, and we consider all of them big deals.Fularu said:

Isnt/wasnt the joke/saying that third party games does sell more aimed towards the Wii (and maybe the DS in 2005/early 2006, and maybe Nintendo 64 and Gamecube as well)? I think that third parties in general have pretty much always been successful on Nintendo's handheld systems, at least i cant think of any handheld Nintendo system that hasnt had good third party supportVilix said:Incorrect. Third party games do not sell well on ANY Nintendo system.
Or, maybe the Virtual Boy, but i guess it can be discussed if the Virtuall Boy was a handheld system. I think that the VB is more like a portable system instead of a handheld system. But the VB wasnt around for that long, so it didnt have time to recieve much third party and even first party support.No.Kenka said:

But it has outsold every FF except for VI-IX.
If you count budget re-releases Monster Hunter Freedom Unite is outsold only from FFVII.
[PS1] Final Fantasy VII (Square) (every version) - 3.937.900
[PSP] Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (Capcom) (every version) - 3.546.738
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (PSP the Best Reprint) just came out.
The battle between Final Fantasy VII and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite isn't over yet.

But if competition from Nintendo is not the reason for low 3rd party sales then ... well lets just not go there and pretend that after DQ it says publisher:Nintendo.test_account said:Isnt/wasnt the joke/saying that third party games does sell more aimed towards the Wii (and maybe the DS in 2005/early 2006, and maybe Nintendo 64 and Gamecube as well)? I think that third parties in general have pretty much always been successful on Nintendo's handheld systems, at least i cant think of any handheld Nintendo system that hasnt had good third party support

The genre works fine on handhelds. What you mean is that games that cater especially to graphics whores are not going to work on handhelds.

You know that Dragon Quest is the exception and not the norm. That's like pointing to Monster Hunter on the PSP and going on about how great PSP software sales are for everyone making PSP games.

But they do demonstrate that a 3rd party title can sell on either machine. Nintendo 1st party doesn't kill all other sales, and the non-game buying PSP audience will buy a game in their droves if it is the right game.OldJadedGamer said:
I think it is less graphic whores and more people who are car whores. There is a reason they replicate real cars in their thousands, its not only about the racing it is also about the car porn, which requires as close to real life as possible.timetokill said:

How do you mean? Did you mean it in context to what i said? Or am i missunderstanding? When Vilix said "Third party games do not sell well on ANY Nintendo system.poppabk said:
", i assumed that he was referring to the "3rd party doesnt sell" joke/phrase. I then wanted to say/ask that i think that the "3rd party doesnt sell" phrase hasnt been used to every Nintendo system, especially when it comes to Nintendo's handheld systems, where 3rd party support in general has be pretty good. And since the 3rd party support is good for Nintendo's handheld systems, i assume that they have success on Nintendo's handheld systems as well. Dragon Quest IX isnt the first 3rd party game that sells great on the DS I guess that you are joking about what you said, but if it was in context to somthing i said (since you quoted me), i didnt mean to say anything about if 3rd party games cant sell on Nintendo systems or not, i just wanted to say that i think that this phrase that 3rd party games doesnt sell on Nintendo systems hasnt been used towards every Nintendo system
Apparently the God Eater demo got 1 million downloads:
While this doesn't guarantee success, it does seem the game is at least getting a lot of exposure.

I was just joking based on the fact that the '3rd parties don't sell on Nintendo' meme is predicated on Nintendo's first party being too strong competition, which is obviously not true given the right 3rd party product.test_account said:How do you mean?
