Nearly a year after launch, Sony’s PlayStation Vita, is struggling to take off even in its home market of Japan.
Last week was particularly embarrassing for Sony after it was
revealed the Nintendo 3DS had sold nearly 47 times as many units as the
Vita. Even the PlayStation Portable, the Vita’s technologically-inferior
predecessor that’s been out for eight years in Japan, sold more units.
Some blame the lack of blockbuster game releases, others say the
handheld is too expensive; but we think the real problem is that no
developer has yet to unlock the full potential of the PlayStation Vita’s
front and rear touch surfaces.
Well step over Animal Crossing, because here comes a title that is sure to herald the rise of Sony: Monster Monpiece, a game where you power up sexy young female heroes by rubbing, stroking and pumping your PS Vita.
Is a monster card battle game. And, of course, by monster we mean young girls with horns, tails and other monster-like physical features.
