Srry i was mostly talking about a first party respective ^ WiiU obviously first 2 years wont compare because it has 1% third party (or maybe 0.1%)

I bought the Vita after it was apparent the kind of support it was getting. I got it mainly to play PSOne classics, indies and the few obscure Japanese games because I feel like those games are best played on a Vita. Games like Gravity Rush and Uncharted were only pluses to me. So I'm pleased with what's been announced.

Yeah it was great to see them finally supporting the Vita. I doubt sales will improve much though.

All of those are ports or indies. Sony basically let other developers develop for their console, and aren't supporting it except for MLB.

What made me happy about the announcements about PSX was that they were pretty much in-line with what I was expecting was a best-case scenario.

I've long come to accept that Vita is going to be a niche-localization-and-indie-game machine.  That's what's been obvious since about the middle of 2013.  At least, with what was announced today, there was a decent selection of quality indie stuff coming that I want to play.  Combined with some already-announced games (Drifter; Starbound; Hotline Miami etc.) there's plenty that's going to keep me playing in 2015.

Yes, it's only really going to appeal to existing Vita owners.  But people who have the machine, by and large, tend to like it, so giving them the choice to play these games on the console is good enough.

The only thing I can hope for now that would've been even better than I was expecting, is that at some point over the next year, Sony manage to pull what they pulled with Yakuza 5 on Phantasy Star Nova/Tales of Innocence.  I genuinely wasn't expecting Yakuza 5 (NISA have, in the past, mentioned they asked SEGA about localizing a Yakuza title, and they were denied) so Sony seemingly can perform miracles.

Now the only thing I'm a bit worried about is the niche localizations.  There's only Neptunia and Firefly Diary that are really catching my interest.  But seeing as how NISA have their big press conference in February and the others announce things as they go along, I'm still hopeful.

@ Bold, like Pezus said, you do understand that a lot of this third-party support is courted directly by Sony?  Most of the announcements from today were specifically organized by their third-party relations team.

@ Underlined, and again, the majority of that support is Sony-courted.  Either by devs that have long-standing relationships with Sony and continue to develop for that reason (not dissimilar to devs like Shin'en on Nintendo consoles) or that the games are PS3/Vita from bigger pubs.  Which again, is a product of Sony intervention giving them easy porting tools between the PlayStation ecosystem (Tecmo-Koei do this a lot, as well as Namco-Bandai).

What Sony do for the Vita may not be $$$ AAA games, but they still do make efforts with the console that seem to largely go un-noticed.

Many indies games was announced on Playstation blog like everyday so nothing new here we already know Vita has a lot of indie games

Most of these seem a step above the usual 2D platformer that gets announced on the blog, though.

Out of everything on the list, RE: Revelations 2 surprised me the most. I was hoping for some type of RE on the Vita for a long time. I do wish it could have been some exclusives made, but with the way the Vita has been handled, it is great it is getting any support at all in the US.

It's a strange one. I'm not going to complain, it goes some way to making up for the cancelled PSP RE. However, it's very strange, that it was leaked as a TGS announcement. I wonder if Sony decided to get Capcom to hold back so there was a major franchise to announce at PSX.

Looks like there is going to be some exclusive Vita (PS TV?) content to Disney Infinity 2.0.
