LKS Vita Sequel

[Shizuka]

It's the least marketed game for the Vita on Japan to this date! Even Little Busters got more attention.

Nah, I'm fairly certain there's a Vita game or two that didn't get a trailer until after release. I know that TOEIC Test thing falls under that, but no one wants that anyways, and marketing isn't going to change it.

[Shizuka]

That one isn't a sequel to a JRPG/Sim that had a mild success worldwide.

EB Games in Australia thinks it will come out in May over here. Only two more months.

Maybe Konami EU will handle the game just as good as Konami JP, announce the date with a trailer one week before the release date.

At the end it says release date of 29th of March, which was yesterday in Japan.

According to Media Create it sold 7,141 units first week via retail.

That's better than I anticipated to be quite honest with you, and actually better than Famitsu's report on the first week sales of the Wii game:

[WII] Little King's Story (Marvelous Entertainment) - 6,426 / 6,426

[Shizuka]

I wonder if Konami's pleased with those numbers.

[Takao]

Given they didn't market the game at all, I hope they're not displeased with those results. I believe it has faired better than Blades of Time, which was another "Konami takes failed IP, throws a new coat of paint on it and releases the game with no marketing support at all" release.
