I bet if the vita gets given up by sony 5 years from that people will hail it as the greatest system ever just like they did with the turbografx16, saturn and dreamcast.

Nah its a great system if you like the niche games it has but its nothing special that will be praised for years and years. Definitely Sony's worst console... although tbh Sony have never made a bad console so yeah =P

Only worst from the perspective of how it was received by the consumer with respect to sales. No doubt about it there; these are the type of sales that make a company exit a market and I seriously question whether SCE will ever release another dedicated portable gaming system again. 

From a hardware and platform perspective, particularly when paired with its sibling PS4, it's arguably the best handheld gaming system ever developed. Remote play, cross play and to a much lesser extent, cross buy all make it a fantastic satellite gaming device with the ability to access/play a library of platform independent games as a standalone system. 

But in terms of platform specific software support, due almost entirely to a indifferent consumer reception, it will go down as the least supported gaming system (PSP Go doesn't count as its own platform) SCE has ever released. 

It's a shame too since the platform deserves so much more. 



I bought a vita today, too! MediaMarkt sells the Mega Bundle (Vita + 8 GB + 10 Games) for 99€ this week, so I couldn't resist. Kind of a christmas gift for myself, haha :)

I'm highly interested in Persona 4 and a lot of JRPGs. As downloads i would like to play FF7 (wasn't able to play it on TV, because the resolution on the big screens let my head hurt after about half an hour :( ) and Disgaea 1 :)



Nice!



Nice!!!
Im also thinking of getting one ( for the anime games =D ), but i might get it once it reaches around $150 AU, either version.



Pocky Lover Boy!

Congrats, I'll personally wait until it only costs like 99 bucks before I get another Vita. (Yes I know their is the PSTV, I don't want that though)



i suggest you try Ys, Tearaway, P4G and Gravity Rush.



Oh damn you missed the 16 GB $19.90 and 32 GB $39.99 memory card deals :(

Persona 4 Golden, Tales of Hearts R, Y's Memories of CELCETA.

All of them are on my list :) Tearaway. Gravity Rush and Uncharted are in the Adventure Mega Bunde, together with an 8GB card for ~45€, so I'll buy this next year :)



i think you wasted your money.
