Horrible news for us weeaboos

Please, game, get a Western release.

Well its Atlus so chances is some picks it up.

However knowing my luck, Europe get FailStation 3 only.

At least the PS3 isn't region locked, so we can easily port it even if it's not released in europe.

^You forgot the development cost for handheld is significantly cheaper, so that same amount on handheld might make profit while on HD console it's not.

Maybe but handheld games also tend to sell a lot ... granted that the PSP have shitty sales, VGChartz shown that VC eventually sold nearly one million as VC2 sales reached 200,000 after a few weeks and then ended.

I do not think VC as a videogame series is selling, neither the PS3 or PSP games had enough sale for them to keep backing them.

Keep in mind that for large games these days advertising is taking up 75% of the budget. Seeing how I don't think VC had much if any advertising its entirely possible it made a profit even if it moved significantly fewer copies. I can't imagine a game getting two sequels so quickly if it was losing money.

Some incline here. New trailer for Catherine. Man, this just looks weirder and weirder. Can't fucking wait.

Not impressed, but we'll see, hmm, waiting to see some proper gameplay footage to see if Atlus can or cannot into horror and ero. I'm not quick to toss it as incline, it might bomb horribly for all we know.
