I wasn't around for the PS3 launch, and to those that did, so what? It's a console that sold 6 times better than Vita at $600 that had competition in Wii and 360.

You can't compare the two like the vita is going to fine because the PS3 was, such lazy reasoning.

The vita is getting great indie support but most of that stuff isn't on store shelves and doesn't reach the mass market.

I just can't fathom how some people think Vita is going to start selling well now based on this price cut, there just isn't enough software to support it.

And you're guessing Sony will shift PS3 support to Vita. They didn't support PSP to the best of their ability and that thing was considered a success.

All I hear when people talk about Vita being ok is pipedreams.


Wait so you think with all of Sony's first party studios that it is not capable of supporting the Vita and PS4 together?  Also for PSP Sony put out LBP, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Twisted Metal, Motorstorm, god of war (games that some people think are some of the top god of war games), Killzone, Resistance, Gran Turismo, Ape Escape, and Wipeout.  That is just off the top of my head, that list could probably be doubled with the official list.  They did support the PSP a lot, of course they didn't suuport it as much as the PS3 but they did a dam good job supporting it.

I was really surprised to her that there was not only a price cut on the Vita but also the memory cards. Its about time they dropped the price on those memory cards! I think the Vita will defiantly survive and do really well come this holiday. All it needs is a strong AAA game like Bioshock or GTA to really push hardware this holiday and into next year.

Vita has been out for about a year longer than Wii U, yet it only marginally outsells it...

Vita is dead. A price drop will only boost its fortunes for a few weeks, then it will fall back to regular dead levels...

It will help a lot, as memory card price has been one of the system's biggest ball-and-chains.
This is the first step in the system's recovery.

I'm still not interested though, and I probably never will be, given that it's a handheld.
