I don't think that the Vita will even get PSP sales numbers.

When Vita arrives the hardware power is outdated from even mid price smartphones. The PSP had some high-end flair around them. Vita obviously don't have this advantage.

The 3DS has the biggest IPs (Pokemon, Mario, Layton, Zelda, Dr. Kawashimas and even Resident Evil & Co). Games for all kinds of gamers.

I think there is no place for an new handheld between smartphones and 3DS in the future.

I don't why you talk about smartphone psvita is a handheld console ans smartphone are phones you think a person will buy angry bird instead of  uncharted a person will buy both if he interestes by this2 games.

It's not because smartphones have higher sale number then handheld,handheld will be affect.

When PSP arrived many young men bought it because it has the "cool" and high-end flair. Vita will not have this advantage, because when Vita arrives smartphones will be more powerful and show better graphics. So this big part of potential vita buyers fall flat.

In the end Vita will have probably have lower sales than the PSP has.

Can you give me a exemple of game in iphone that have better graphic then god of war ghost of sparta.

Even if they have some games that has better graphic then psp,psp game will look more impresive because psp is a 2004 hardware and iphone is 2007.

I thing we should wait 2 yeasr to match psvita power then it need 3-4 years to match psvita game graphic and psvita will have price advantage.

And smartphone gamers don't care about graphics they prefer the 1 dollars games.

so the PSvita will doing well and will have better sale then PSP if games are good and can outsell 3Ds is not sure but it's possible.

People treat psvita like a psp they say i don't want home console experience in a handheld and ignored the unique game they say i don't want uncharted but don't talk about gravity daze for exemple.

For 600 dollars  i could buy a smartphone without any game i can also buy a psvita with more then 60 minis game.So i prefer a psvita.
