VF5 sold only 30 k in its first DAY in Japan.

DOA4 sold 60 k in its first WEEK in Japan.

wow...just wow. before you hit the "new topic" button, look at what you're saying. VF5 almost sold as many in a day as DOA4 did in a week. Also look at the amount of consoles that are avaiable. Sheesh.

You know when your system is flopping when people start comparing its sales with the N-gage and the xbox360 in japan.

Way too early to call it a flop, but no it does not seem to be a "system seller".

VF is for hardcore games.

VF is not casual friendly.

VF doesn't have online.

PS3 cost a lot of $$.

You can see why they have chosen to port though.cakeorrdeath
360 owners might not warm up to it either. XB360 is about COMMUNITY. VF is a black sheep in that regard; it's a game that is really only best served when fighting against real and skilled opponents. but it's not there. I'm just trying to imagine if I'd still be playing DOA4 after a year if it didn't have online play. ........ ........ hell no.

Go do some goddamn research you n00bs, since when did VF sell well on Consoles since Sega Saturn? lmfao, and PS3 has a userbase of about 600k. I have Japanese friends, they play VF in the arcades, it's not very popular on consoles anymore, why would they want to dish out $400+ for it on a system which has no killer games? 30k for it's first day means 70k for next week which is still pretty damn good. It doesn't even have online either, if it had online then that would change things immensily.

I wasn't trying to say it would sell beter on 360 just that the potential of sales on the PS3 certainly is not enough to make their money back.

without online play, they may just be looking at a loss. i really wish they'd just hold off on this one until they get it right. I'd bet all the money in my pocket that Tekken 6, Soul Calibur and DoA5 will be online games.

Wheres the logic in that? DOA 60k in one week. VF5 30k in one day. Week = 7 days.

I think he is well versed in SW sarcasm.

There is none. All he did was state two things (I'm not insulting him or trying to own him, but thats all he did, your just assuming he's bashing the VF5 when he has done no bashing).
