Re: I just got into a huge argument about this with someone

1. Of course they don't. The industry still far and away views males as the whole gaming demographic. It's going to take a while before they get it into their heads that women enjoy games too.

2. Seeing as how the PS Vita still sells tons of consoles, they are going to chalk up poor sales to a lack of interest rather than the fact that it was released on a niche system.

Basically the reason this is happening is because the industry is fucked. It's not sexism; it's what they think is going to make the most money. If Ubisoft doesn't feel like it will be profitable to invest in a female character/storyline, they aren't going to do it.

Lol, in Japan maybe. I can't speak for the US or EU obviously but it pretty much bombed here in AUS. I say this as someone who works in a retail game shop...its generally considered a pretty faily console in terms of sales/marketing/titles etc.
