Both releases received a mixed critical reception in the west, with critics praising the colourful graphics and pick-up-and-play nature but criticising its generic design and repetitive missions. It would also become the first Vita hunting game to find its way overseas (XSEED picked it up for release in North America and noted that sales were off to a "strong start" in the region, before also localizing Ace in 2014).

It seems the formula was a success, as although the game opened to 33k sales in Japan, it went on to shift more than 85k copies and spawned an expanded re-release ( Ragnarok Odyssey Ace) which sold a further 62k in Japan alongside an additional PS3 version a year later in 2013. The title followed the now-traditional formula of questing from a central hub but mixed in its own unique features such as a card system to increase statistics and improve abilities and different classes each with their own special skills. This was Ragnarok Odyssey from Gungho Online Entertainment, a spin-off from its popular MMORPG Ragnarok Online, developed by Game Arts (of Grandia fame). Thankfully, Vita's second hunting game was decidedly more successful. The lukewarm sales reflected the fact that the game just wasn't that well received - it wasn't the Monster Hunter experience people were after and the franchise died off soon after, and unfortunately without ever reaching western shores.

Apocalypse boasted 249 improvements over Arcana and landed on both Vita and PSP in December of 2011, with the launch of Sony's new handheld, where it sold 28k. sounds familiar, right? The title mixed things up with combat that takes place in dedicated Tales-esque arenas, quick time events in battles, and a variety of magical spells and weapons to use. The game was an expanded version of PSP's Lord of Arcana and had you undertaking quests from a central guild then adventuring out into the world to kill monsters. On Vita, a few of these initiatives continued and one even showed up at launch - Square Enix's foray into the genre, Lord of Apocalypse. While PSP had been home to Monster Hunter itself, a sea of imitators from various publishers were also released to cash-in on the market, ranging from the hugely successful ( God Eater from Bandai-Namco) to the quickly forgotten ( Frontier Gate from Konami).

It's these series I'm intending to examine in this article - what they are (including many that actually pre-dated Monster Hunter or appeared alongside it on PSP), how many entries Vita saw, how well they sold, and how well they succeeded at providing a co-operative hunting experience. With the audience still very much interested in buying a true next-gen successor on the Vita despite the hardware shift, other companies stepped in to attempt to plug the gap in the market, leading to a large variety of imitator franchises on the Vita. The stage was all set for the franchise to make the jump to Sony's new handheld in 2011, but in a surprise piece of news it was announced the series would instead be transitioning to Nintendo's new 3DS handheld.

Each successive release sold better than the previous entry, culminating in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd clearing nearly 5 million copies.

In Japan, one franchise injected new life into the little handheld turning it from a decent seller into the must-have machine in the country - this was, of course, Monster Hunter.Ĭapcom's co-operative action-adventure series was born on the PS2 but found a much better audience on the PSP, where local ad-hoc play became somewhat of a phenomenon in the country. While the PSP definitely got off to a flying start in terms of sales thanks to the promise of console quality gaming on the go, things took a downturn in the following years due to a variety of factors including increasing competition from the DS & phones, and a lack of quality exclusives.
