GamesIndustry.biz was recently told by the PlayStation‘s US boss that PS Vita’s sales were “acceptable.”
However, despite Sony Computer Entertainment America’s CEO Jack Tretton‘s description of the handheld, he’s not really disappointed with the sales.
“In this industry, you can’t get too high or too low, because it moves very quickly,” he said. “I think there’s an acceptable number – and [the number] we’ve sold: That’s acceptable. If it was triple that, I’d be happier. If it was one-third, I’d be disappointed.”
“Anything with great rewards is going to come with great challenges,” Tretton added. “We felt if the tech was there, and the game support was there, then the audience would be there. … I feel much better about it now than I did four months ago.”
In addition to this, SCE’s UK Boss, Fergal Gara, stated last week that the company would love for the Vita to be selling more. However, he also noted the following about it: “I think we haven’t quite hit the spot with the killer software just yet and I have every reason to think that will happen in the next few months.”
It’s a known fact that the PS Vita has issues making the publishers developing games to the handheld.
