So what those numbers mean?

It means that PS Vita is picking up the sales in Japan now. Now with the price drop, the sales will go at a good pace, perhaps having a healthy 30.000 to 40.000 per week after things cool down. It was the first time since launch that it passed the 3DS numbers on sales per week. The numbers are already bringing attention to some publishers that at first, were reluctant to publish games in the PS Vita. Now we can even hope of Capcom putting MH4 in multi plats as PS Vita became attractive to buy.

Now let's forget about PSV a bit and go for the main topic of this post: Project DIVA F

It is basically a port of the PS Vita version, with some added songs, but still very fun to play in your Big Screen TV.

These are some of the Extra Added Songs.

These are some magazine scans that I did from my Playstation Venus Magazine.

Now Hori has been very generous and lovely with their accessories for Project Diva F.

They made a controller:

Decal Skins for PS3 and Controller:

They made way too much for Hatsune Miku Project Diva F (I am still missing the wall scroll and some other stuff)

If you like rhythm games and/or Hatsune Miku, this is definitely a buy! Playing the songs in the Big Screen is very fun and addicting. I already made a review of the game as it plays out the same way as the Vita Version. 

There is currently a petition created by Sega themselves to localize the game to the west. It will probably modify the menus to English and add subtitles to the songs while you are playing them. Here is the link:

If you can't wait, don't worry; the Menu is pretty intuitive and user friendly, so it's pretty easy to navigate through it.

It ends here my coverage of Project DIVA F. Until next time!
