Vita version of Football Manager 'possible if sales pick up'

Sports Interactive is "constantly watching" the sales data of Sony's PS Vita, the studio's director has said, but the group will not release a Football Manager game for the system until sales pick up.

"At the moment, this year there will not be a specific Vita version.
"I really like the device, I know it may not have performed at retail as much as people would have liked, but we're constantly watching to see if it does pick up. It is a really special device, and hopefully it will get to the stage where we can get something through Sega so Football Manager can be on the system.
"At the end of the day, we are running a business and we need our games to be profitable, so we have to take into account the sales of the Vita version before making a decision."
On the subject of the upcoming iOS and Android versions of Football Manager Handheld 2013, Jacobson said to expect a release before Christmas.
He explained: "We can't talk about it just yet, specifically because we don't know what the iPhone 5 is going to be like and don't know what the feature set yet."
