Is it possible for any of you to convince me to buy the VITA? I kind of want it... but I'm still not sure... there are other things I woUld like to bUy.

I am not going to try and convince you, but instead I am going to, in reponse to you, post what I was just came onto VGChartz to post before I get back to the game I was playing. So whether anyone chooses to believe this or not, this is my 100% honest thoughts at this moment in time, so take as you wish.

--------------------------------------------------

 

Oh my fucking god, I absolutely love these analog sticks. I do not lie when I say they are an absolute wonder. Everytime I sit here and pump hours a night into YS 7 (Yes, a PSP, I know...) I just can't believe that a handheld feels so much like my good ol' dualshock controller. These things, not to mention this handheld, is an absolute work of engineering art. I sometimes like to just sit there and rotate the sticks. I really love what they did with this handheld.

Just finished the Fire Shrine in YS 7 and think this game is wonderful, kind of surprised I missed it on the PSP, but I am glad I did because these sticks are just a wonder to use, especially compared to the PSP nub which I honestly hated, it was so uncomfortable.

This handheld is truly wonderful and if it ends up flopping I won't care because I know plenty of games are already on the way and they will no doubt reach my hands before the (Oh god I hope it don't happen) thing goes the way of the Dodo. I will blame the gamers though if this indeed happens to be the case because mind you this, I don't give a rat's fucking ass what anyone on this site or any other says, the Vita is bar none the best option you will find for gaming on the go. Other ones can claim to have specific franchises, but believe me when I say that those games would definitely benefit if the console they were on was made in the same way this one is. For the first time in a while I REALLY feel like it was money well spent. I expect this handheld to get great word of mouth.

It doesn't matter what kind of argument they bring up, this handheld is so well made, so damn comfortable in your hands and makes even the oldest of games worth playing again and all because of those sticks. Now, not meant to be a knock, but the circle pads just do not compare. The PSP nub REALLY doesn't compare. I don't own a 3DS, but I play with it everytime I hit up Target because I do like the handheld and intend to get one some day, but really, it just can't compare. The range of motion on these things is stupendous. Circle pad slides around. These sticks move just like a Dualshock analog, XBox360 analog, Classic Controller Analog or Nunchuck analog. It truly is NEARLY PERFECT if you want my honest opinion. Only thing I would want is to have them just a bit higher, but that would risk them breaking. Oh well, i'll just get analog covers and they will no doubt raise them enough.

A lot to read? Yeah, but does it really matter? How often do I go out of my way to really shine something in such a positive light around this place? Not to mention I didn't even mention the screen (Which really does these games real justice) or any other aspect of the system. To me it is all about those analog sticks, lol.

 

Can't wait to finish up YS 7 and try Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky... yeah, I haven't played that either, lol.

I am in for a treat I bet. Heard nothing but praise for the game.


Well Said! People can try to downplay the significance of them but the sheer quality of the analog sticks and the Dpad are absolutely amazing....I can't wait to try out 3rd person games on this..gonna play Unit 13 demo tonight or tomorrow.
