Oh now that you mention that, I can really see a revision of Vita with 4G coming out eventually hmm |
In 2013 the 3G Vita will get replaced by a 4G model. Just in time to be outdated by smartphones switching to 5G. Haha.

It should be noted that the 3DS is beating the Pita (Playstation + Vita = Pita) worse than the DS did the PSP. So it might be that this generation Nintendo does better and Sony does worse.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Previous versions of CoD for handhelds were retarded dumbed down ports. This will be first same as HD version portable CoD. |
That's the main problem I see. Not that its a port of an old amazing game like say Ocarina, but that its the exact same game as an HD system game being relased (same time?) Call of Duty sells what 10 million games easily? I just have a hard time seeing ANY of those people switching over to Vita. If those 10 million want the next call of duty, they WILL get it for the home console system of their choice. Now some of them will get BOTH the Vita verson and the console version, but do you really expect that to be a big number. Sorry but I just can't see millions of americans buying a $60 game twice (what is vita, $40, $50, $60) regardless of its price, its another chunk of money.
And we should probably reduce that 10 million as well, because realistically the people who would even buy both would probably be people that buy the ps3 version of call of duty, since i imagine there would be benefits in having both ps3 and vita version compared to 360 an vita version. I highly doubt 360 users will buy the vita version. They would have to play on home console on the 360 name, then portable on their psn. Not likely.
If nintnedo REMADE ocarina of time for the Wii, and released at same time as the 3DS. I would not have bought both versions of the SAME game. I would have only bought the wii version, OR only the 3DS version. NOT BOTH. I see Vita games who are dual systems like this Call of Duty doing about as good as the super expensive $100+ game versions. Its only going to be those select few diehard fans that would see the need to buy the same exact game twice.
Sure the idea of playing your home game on the road sounds appealing, but you will be surprised how quickly that will wear off. I can see maybe the first of these types of games doign not too bad, but then all those that bought it realizing that they played the game 99% of the time at home and thus the next time, totally ignore the Vita version. Now take a quick glance and tlel me how many places offer free wifi, that you would be able play online anyway? I found out pretty quickly with my ipod touch that wifi isn't EVERYWHERE. For teh most part, i can only do stuff online with my wifi at HOME, a FRIENDS HOUSE, or at Barnes and Noble. So don't expect to just plop down anywhere and boot up call of duty and play online throguh wifi, and we are all smart people and know that 3G is a joke and won't be playing games with that.

Not saying your not right but we will have to keep in perspective that because of their price point, 3DS kill the DS while the Vita did not (yet). Its important since both device can play the game of its predecessor. Someone who want a DS will pretty much purchase a 3DS, which isnt the case yet with the Vita. That being said, im not saying Vita will do better then 3DS, just that its needed to keep that in perspective.

perspective is for non haters don't ya know
I mean ffs..the 3ds had a price cut and is much cheaper than the vita (cheaper than the psp too still?) had a Monster hunter, MK and a Mario platformer and is on the first holiday season. he is jumpin to conclusion in a bad way almost as bad as his taste in jokes. ffs the device is out for two days and ninty fans on vgc are already dooming the thing (then again they started doing that an year before it was announced even so..i guess that shouldn't surprise me)

Until Activision announce what their plans are for COD on the Vita I don't think it's worth speculating what it'll be like. I've always viewed it taking a step away from being about online multiplayer, and instead sort of pushing the whole local wi-fi 4 player coop stuff. Zombies, Spec Ops or whatever... where you can like use the NEAR functionality to do co-op with randoms on the street etc. I think Vita lends itself nicely to that, especially with all the social features shown off for a game like Unit 13. Throw in a Vita specific campaign using all the touch screen and stuff and the COD brand and you have a game that could sell a few million copies.
It really depends on what Activision feel like doing, I think the straight port stuff isn't awful if they do a combo-pack for the same price with cross platform and everything. Charge like $70 for PS3 retail copy + download code for Vita... I'd imagine Activision are wayyyyyyy too stingent to do anything like that but it sounds like something which a few games are gonna do.
i got one, beat Uncharted, it was pretty rad actually. In my opinion way more fun than Uncharted 3.
By the way (i havent been every where in tokyo of course) but of the 4-5 stores i have been to recently, all the Wifi models are sold out.. only the 3g are still around.
And also, isn't this just one day of sales? I'm not sure what the dates are

pretty sure its 2-day, but again that how ALL consoles have been in the past for release, so not sure why whenever a new console comes out 99% of the posts are people arguing over how its only x days
