10 Retail vs 10 Downloads = 50/50

The system has the biggest attach rate for a playstation platform according to Sony, so there is no way that HW could decently and not the SW.

PS+is a reason for me for not buying software so often anymore.i have a huge library that i don't have the time to play.My last last purchase was KILLzone physical and was worth it.

Sure, bit that's the retailer cutting the price. Sony can't check all the prices in the world and set the price in the store accordingly, can they? They have to go with the RRP, which is 39,99 for Killzone.

Theres software for the Vita outside of Japan? Imagine that.

PSVita has a smaller game section in most stores than Wii U does which says a lot. I do think digital is huge for the PS Vita definitely, much bigger % than usual and it's been proven with many of its games digital/physical split.

the vita should be a digital device in my opinion

I dont think thats a good idea look at what happenn to the psp Go

true, i personally have always hated digital and will never buy over a physical copy but with the vita it just works so well and feels so right. But yea it'll probably be bad for the system.

I think a lot of the issues here is that stores are just not willing to take the risks to buy in games for the vita atm when there is shelf space that could be going towards ps4/xboxone. If you owned a mom and pops game store would you be more likely to shelf a game with 6 times more customers(3ds) of course you would.

Worst thing about digital on the vita tho and I've qq'd about this a load, the games are almost the same price if not a fraction cheaper from psn but you need to buy more proprietary memory for it which adds such a huge price to it, on top of that the vita doesn't allow you delete patch data for games from your mem stick without also deleting your save data for those games. I find it insane how badly designed the UI is in the vita just to stop pirates being able to drag and drop files on there. The thing is tho, you can still hack the Vita using buggy games from psn. The only ones being affected by their ultra restrictive data transfer programs from the pc are the actual legitimate buyers of their stuff.
