These Random PS Vita Games Keep Topping the Charts, According to NPD Report

Like they do each month, the NPD group has released info detailing the top ten best-selling PS Vita games for the month of August in the United States. While the list is pretty similar to last month’s report, there is one random game that managed to make it to the number one spot without even having a spot on the list last month and that game is Street Fighter X Tekken, a crossover fighting game that brings together the characters from both of the well-known franchises.

This list comes from Mat Piscatella who posted the group’s findings to his Twitter account:

Top 10 Best-Selling PS Vita Titles for the Month of August 2018 (Ranked on dollar sales both physically and digitally)

1. Street Fighter X Tekken
2. Muvluv Alternative
3. God of War Collection
4. Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk
5. Minecraft
6. Persona 4 Golden
7. Code Realize – Future Blessings
8. Jak and Daxter Collection
9. Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hacker’s Memory
10. Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified

The top sellers for Sony’s handheld continue –time after time again– to be as random and bizarre as ever with the visual novel Muvluv Alternative somehow dominating the charts month after month with Persona 4 Golden hanging in there behind Minecraft. We have no idea how Street Fighter X Tekken managed to become number one so suddenly with no apparent sale on the PSN store as of the writing of this article. And once again, the terribly reviewed Call of Duty game, Black Ops Declassified, sits at the bottom of the list just like last month.
