Sony software-development head Munechika Nishida recently stated that Sony is pursuing Flash compatibility in their new Vita console. Even though Adobe announced it is going to stop its mobile Flash development Sony isn't about to give up. Sony is negotiating with Adobe to ensure Flash is present on Vita shortly.
Having Flash support would be a major asset to Vita, currently many portable devices are losing Flash and it Adobe is going to drop the product from mobile devices. RIM already announced they will continue upgrading Flash and offering their own Flash service while other phones and tablet manufacturers are dropping Flash in future models due to Adobe's dropping of the product.
Is this a wise move by Sony? Could Flash compatibility be a major selling feature for Vita at a time when other portable devices are losing Flash? Is it worth while for Sony to continue to pursue Flash or should they follow Apple and other competitors in letting it die?
