Forums - Sony Discussion - Vita deserves so much better!

Its selling bad cause
a) Memory card prices are super high compared to microsd card prices
b) A lot of the games on its library can be found else where with an arguably better experience vs most of the games on the 3ds can only be played on 3ds period
c) 3ds gets a lot more love from Nintendo than Vita does from Sony (just look at e3 for example)
d) 3ds has games with more of a broad appeal than the vita does (Like Pokemon is played by kids, teens and adults)

And etc... I think the vita deserves its poor sales not cause its a bad system but the way that Sony is treating it... I mean, their latest thing (apart from freedom wars) was a new revision of the vita with a bundled 2 year old game that everyone and their dog as played...


Really wish I had enough ca$h so I could give you a PS Vita and show how it's exclusive software can make an amazing and really WORTH THE PRICE experience...

Vita never deserved to be better.

I love my Vita and the games it has. It's to bad Sony didn't handle some things better with it.

 That's not the point. I know I would probably enjoy those games, and maybe Jizz as well. The point is why the vita is not where it deserves to be.

 The vita is where it is, because the vita is a niche product, and one with a very limited appeal. It does appeal to a lot of gamers, informed gamers... But the general public, the kids that like to play minecraft, call of duty, pokemon and Mario do not see a real value in it.

 If the 3ds is having a hard time finding its place with all the backing from Nintendo, now imagine how bad can things be for vita with sony admitting you should not expect many games from them...

Actually what went wrong with vita is... There is no MH games on it. It was like 3DS/DS/GBA without pokemon. I have psp and Vita, sure i love it, i love vita because ps+ programs! I even only had 3 retail vita games, and a lot plus games. A LOT of Nintendo fanboys didnt know about plus program. N Fanboys really happy with their coin now. But what can i say? I have Vita and 3DS, and i enjoy it :)

happy to read that OP, i haven't bought a vita because i don't like handhelds (i cant stand the small screen,) but now that the PS VITA TV is coming to the west as the PlayStation TV... well lets say i already pre ordered the thing and when i get it, im gonna play P4G, GOD EATER 2, FREEDOM WARS, SWORD ART ONLINE, TOUKIDEN, etc.


So sad for you who's gonna lose so many amazing Vita games like Gravity Rush (unless they patch it for Vita TV) and Tearaway (really, I can't see it possible!)

to be honest Gravity Rush is the only one that i want to play out of those two, and yes i know that tearaway is great game, but it doesnt appeal to me...

on a sidenote, there is a rummor that the PS4 DS4 may be compatible with the PS TV so those games may be playable when that happens thanks to the DS4 touchpad.

The DS4 is compatible with PSTV. However it doesn't have a rear touch pad which Tearaway needs. They really needed Tearaway at launch to show off the Vita's capabilities. They really missed the boat.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

You tell it sister. But let's face it Vita is a major FAIL. Sony has already given up on it, Tablets and Smart phones are way better and do EVERYTHING (besides play Vita games) vita does and they are easy to put emulators on. I own a vita since day one and have only bought 4 games for it, @ launch I got Uncharted GA, Wipeout (which I didn't like but only got because game stop had buy two get one free) and ModNation Racers, then a year later I got MGS HD. I've had the vita in pawn almost half the time I've had it. It's apps and internet browser isn't anything special. Trust me I want the vita to do good. But IT'S DEAD!

I would argue the controls on a Vita far surpass anything a tablet or phone can do, but your second point is staggering to me.  "My system is great, it is easy for me to steal other platform's titles and play on it."

I have had a Vita for 8 months and own a dozen titles for it and plan on buying another dozen in the next year.  I buy a handhled for games, I own a smart phone for work and communication as find the games to be very poor.  The Vita, if it continues at this rate, may well go down as the best handheld I have owned rivaling my beloved GBA SP. I do not know how to sell someone on Gravity Rush, Tearaway or Ys other than they are some of the best games I've played in the past year and show the quality and diveristy of the system.
