Well.  I'll argue with you now that the 3DS is better if you want.  I'm j/k :P.

Until they completely iron out all supply issues where even a soccer mom call walk into absolutely any store at any time anywhere and never have to worry they might not have PS4 stock, then yeah, it's a bad idea to waste any of that stock on such a costly bundle.

That said, even afterwards I don't see much reason to bundle if the bundle isn't $500, and taking a $100 cut on every Vita (or PS4, I suppose) seems like a really bad idea given Sony just barely got the sector stably profitable.

Obviously ratchet up your marketing and software efforts SCEA for the Vita, but otherwise it's better to just be happy with the PS4's monster sales, and continue focusing on keeping the Vita as a nice little profitable, sustainable blunder.

i have to disagree with yout there, if vita tv launched i would be waiting in line for it here in the states, its like having a second ps4 in the house, i cant tell you how many times my wife has forced me to turn off the ps4 so she can watch something stupid on tv, like dancing with the stars.  i have to unplug my ps4 and move it to the computer room when she does this, having the vita tv stops that and stops me from wanting to buy a second ps4.  Same ideo goes for my sister and my nephews she doesnt let them play games in thier bedroom, so when they want to play a game she either tells them no, or she gives in and ends up watching them play a game or goes to her bedroom.  i know quite a few people who the vita tv would be perfect for.

Yes I can perfectly understand that. But why aren't you interested in using remote play on Vita? It's a better option, especially if were interested in some of the unique games it has. Playing on a handheld had always been a bliss to me, I prefer it over playing on a wide screen on the living room with everyone staring at it.

You should give the handheld a try too!

*makes list of exclusive games, including those I haven't played.* 

Actually, thinking about it, my opinion is still kind of the same, just with the massive lack of support, I'm more pissed off at Sony, and by association, the Vita, where Nintendo has been supporting the 3DS, even if Bravely Default is the last 3DS game I've purchased since Pokemon(which I didn't like.)  Bravely Default, atleast the demo as I haven't played the game yet, still being shipped, is awesome.

I mean if you were to look at my 3DS and Vita collection, I still have more games on the Vita than I do on the 3DS.  Though if you go by exclusives, the 3DS is still winning.  http://www.gamefaqs.com/users/kupomogli/games/owned?platform=0

They want to maintain what makes Vita Vita. What makes Vita Vita is its terrible sales. If they bundle it might sell better which would make it lose that signature.

it already lost that signature to the WiiU XD

Nintendo should join forces with Sony to bundle Wii U + Vita.

Beauty waste of space and money everywhere

"But, I stop there because I want to make sure Vita retains the beauty of what makes Vita Vita. And that's that it's got it's own unique kind of bespoke games."

Yet for the entire first part of the year your lineup for the device is ALL games that are available on other systems. Which you promised us wouldn't be the case.

Then in Summer you move the one portable exclusive franchise you had onto PS3 as well. Whomever is in charge of the Vita is either the most incompetent individual to make that much money or they just want it to die so they never have to support another portable.



Sony is stupid.



 Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move,  and Kinect.

I guess they want to retain the beauty of nobody buying the Vita. A $500 PS4+Vita bundle would have been great for the system. Well now it will stick with 20-25m sales at best. Way to go Sony.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

i have the Vita have had it since the day it came out love it but my biggest complaint about the vita is the size and location of the buttons i have fairly big hands and i feel like my hands are cramping after 30 mins of playing it but i do like some of the games and remote play on it so ive been trying to get use to it. biggest problem is holding it while im playing remote play without accidently hitting the back touchscreen
