NPD: Top 10 LTD sold on PlayStation Vita
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
Unit 13, wow. I feel like I hadn't heard anyone mention this game's name since it was announced. Surprised to see it here.
Have a hard time believing P4G would be that low, so I'm guessing digital sales for that were probably pretty high.
Interesting list all things considered

This also includes any bundles, though, eh? Like, weren't there bundles each of AC, COD, and NFS?
Sounds about right. IIRC, as both games came out at more or less the same time, someone had mentioned that Resident Evil: Revelations on 3DS was closer to 200k than Uncharted was over it in the first month they were tracked, so the legs on Uncharted had to have been pretty damn bad. Granted, it didn't help that it was one of the initial PS+ offerings for about a year, but yeah, Sony could not give a fuck.
That's a really sad top 10.
So much for indies and japanese games selling well on Vita too.
Hell, there's bad ports in this list, and it's mostly launch games...

OOF
Yeah, everything's from 2012. We don't have final figures but I believe Vita sold ballpark a little over 2m in the US, making it the worst selling major platform here since Sega Saturn.
Killzone is actually from 2013, but yeah.
No Gravity rush but Unit 13 seems pretty bad
I'm tempted to post the stophesalreadydead gif, but I feel like it will only get worse from there.
Does the NPD track physical sales of redemption codes? There was never an actual game card for it.
Yep, there we are.
And even then Tearaway couldn't chart? That's a crime right there.

It's a bigger IP than Persona and was a launch game, it's not that surprising that Uncharted is at the top tbh.
Add to that the fact that PSP/Vita was always trying to push the idea of western console games on the go (which is well shown by this top 10) and it's even less surprising.
Tearaway was a massive flop. Not an expensive flop due to how small the team was, but still an absolute sales disaster. I think it was at less than 40k its first month and it never got better.
They likely did somewhat better digitally which the NPD doesn't track, these are only physical card sales.
Based on the numbers we were given, it's more like Vita just didn't have any big sellers, period
The Vita ports of MvC3 and SFxT were really, really good though.
Yeah this chart needs saved for prosperity here. I always wanted a Vita cause it is a nice piece of hardware but never pulled the trigger because I only wanted 1-2 games.
