Lately with the approaching release of Resident Evil Revelations for 3DS I have heard this comment quite a few times: " When's the Vita port coming out?". This seems kind of annoying. Why are Vita gamers assuming that games like this are coming to the Vita at all? It's not that I don't like the Vita but the mentality has got to stop. In my internet travels I have only seen this rule apply to Nintendo products. I've even heard people wish that Ninty would go software only and port their best games. I don't think I need to explain why Zelda, Metroid or Mario would never be as good on anything but a Nintendo console. Why can't the 3DS have it's own little batch of third party exclusives. To the Vita fans I'm talking about: If you REALLY want to play Revelations, then buy a 3DS!!!
If you look up an article about that Nintendo keynote a while back, the one when Capcom announced MH4, chances are there will be at least 2 comments about this game coming to Vita or why it would be "stupid for it not to be a multiplat". What if it never comes to Vita? What is the game is custom designed around the 3DS and it's StreetPass and 3D features? Screaming "PORT!PORT!" means that the game might not blend perfectly because it was created for a 3DS. MH4 is a little different because it's in development (though if there is a Vita version is would have be announced a while ago), but there is no excuse. Revelations is likely a 3DS exclusive and RE 6 could show up on Vita. To fans of the more traditional RE I guess that could be disappointing but I still fail to see the problem. If you want a 3DS exclusive... buy it for 3DS. Uncharted doesn't need to be on the Xbox, Gears should't be on PS. I've never seen people asking about that. Yes Capcom is a third party but the rules still apply but if they want Resi to be on one system why can't it be? You don't see us shouting to port Mortal Kombat or Marvel Versus Capcom 3? Why must you beg for ours?
Tamagotchi Plaza debuts in a very low position while Death Stranding 2 soars in the UK games sales charts.

"“launch sales were ~66% lower than Death Stranding 1"
Maybe he'll put this franchise to rest now and do something new (which I know he is thankfully)
Not to hate if you enjoy these games but they weren’t for everyone and it puzzles me that he did a sequel rather than doing Physint next or even an actual P.T like game.
I just feel he's trying to make Death Stranding a thing, like as big as Metal Gear Solid and it's just not going to happen.
“Maybe he'll put this franchise to rest now and do something new”
He is making new things, so I don’t see what the problem is. Game reviewed better than the first. It has its fans and served its purpose.
At its core, it’s just not a very commercial game. Takes work, which might turn off casuals.
Probably not, the sales won't be much lower than the first game. And its a critical success

It's selling well digitally you can't compare it to sales of ps4 game because even back than digital wasn't the be all end all like it is today now. With GTA6 delayed DS2 is the game to beat for GOTY
Split fiction and Clair Obscure already have it beat in critic scores.
So does Forza Horizon PS5 :/
Geoff Keighley basically sucks off Kojima and Sony - so yes, it’ll probably be GOTY even though Expedition 33 is better
Cant really compare those. Ones the best RPG since baldurs gate 3. Ones the next game from a game of the year studio and ones the best racing game on Xbox. To score 90 is still very, very good
This is the UK physical charts. This doesn't count digital at all which are the bulk of the sales and a much larger share than they would have been 6 years ago. For example, its the number one game on PSN.
I think he would be happy with your reaction. Remember, he stated that his goal was not to make a hit game loved by everyone. He would have been happy with 4/10 people liking it.
He is making what he wants to make... not what will be the biggest smash hit. He has stated this on MANY, MANY occations. And I think this is okay. I would rather people chase what they want to make as opposed to making money.
However, if you poke your head over on PSN... it looks like its selling just fine.
About the sequel, he ALREADY stated that even though he has a script for a potential DS3, it is not his intention to make another one directly.
Literally this. And its massively improved over the first part. And its not sold badly at all
If they released at the same time Im pretty sure Mario would still take number one.
At least get the statement right, physical sales were down 66%, not total.

Obviously, digital is bigger part of the landscape than it was on PS4.
Digitally on the PlayStation store it is and has been the best selling retail game since prior to release, and still is today.
Also, the digital edition came with early access.
My friends and I bought it digital. Truth be told, I haven’t bought a disc in years. Is what it is.

"Uncharted doesn't need to be on the Xbox, Gears shouldn't be on PS. I've never seen people asking about that." - There is an article about that almost every week. - 5 PS3 exclusives that the 360 would die for, 5 360 games PS3 owners wish they had. 'Blog' is silly, the whole premise is flawed. People just want the games they wanna play on the system they prefer.
Maybe it's because a lot of Wii and DS games have ended up being ported over to their equivalents. A ton of the DS RPGs have been ported (and upgraded) on the PSP. A lot of Wii exclusives were ported over to other consoles.
Nintendo hasn't been known for their 3rd-party exclusives since the days of the SNES. Considering the fact that CAPCOM is already port-happy (consider how the 3DS's first Monster Hunter game is actually just a port of a several-year-old Wii game), I wouldn't be surprised if RE:Revelations showed up on the Vita.
