@me3639: @mrwakka: @tuxfool: I also don't think FFVII or FFXIII are a good comparison for this situation. The notion that any JRPG ported to PC would instantly be a top seller because there aren't a lot of JRPGs on PC is absurd.
I'd say the best comparison is Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. It is widely considered to be one of the best PSP games, but it also hasn't sold well. It gets great word of mouth. People love it. I don't remember how well the PC port did earlier this year.
PC version of TitS was top seller for at least a day and it was around the top sellers for a couple of weeks,and considering the reaction from carpe fulgur on twitter it looks like it did pretty well.
Should also be noted that the game was originally released on PC in 2004,that´s the original version,then ported to the PSP two years later,ported to the PS3 in 2013 and then re-released on PC earlier this year.
