Exactly, so wouldn't some potential new PS3 owners get a PSV instead? They are both $250 machines after all, and most Japanese gamers have migrated to handhelds.

It's a possibility, especially when you factor in that some games will have both a Vita and PS3 version, like Dragon's Crown, which I guess will be pretty much the same on both platforms. Of course, the Vita complements the PS3 and I think a lot of people will buy it to do just that.
|
So you are saying that the customers who buy a PSV instead of a PS3 will be offset by the PS3 owners who buy a PSV as well?
Fair enough.

Moreorless, I think it will offset between those two. I own a PS3 and I know I will be getting a Vita down the line because of the exclusives (some are enhanced ports) and some bit of cross-platform play.

hi MasterVG71782. i couldn't help but notice you talking to may good friend Michael, and i was kind of wondering if you'd like to put the link to the official Vita thread in your sig.
me and the op are trying to promote Vita here on VGC and make sure if there any updates any body interrested would have easy access to the thread without having to look for it.
thanks in advance if you choose to or not.
