Pretty much our entire conversation from the previous thread:

You then said this:

"Vita's chips are what all the next phones/tablets will have THIS year. In the next 3 to 6 months."

Thats where i call total bullshit. NO phone/tablet thats currently announced or even rumoured to be announced, releasing in 3 - 6 months will have the power of the PSV especially not tegra 3 or S4 devices! 

I feel like ive derailed your thread enough! lol my apologies.

Notice i guessed the correct exynos chip

Anyways i stand by what i said in that thread.


ok, and I left in the important parts. Here we are two months after that discussion and already there is a phone that is nearly matching Vita. You can stand by what you said, but trend is that Vita will be surpassed in terms of raw power by the end of year.

S3 is comparable already, you have to admit that.

Given 2013 will have mobile phones that are easily greater than Vita's power, you'll see iOS and Android games that are identical or better.

iOS already has a solid gaming distribution and gets ports of everything.... as iPhone5 matches Vita this year (probably around June) its games will be identical.

Google annouched months ago that by 2013 they will have a major upgrade to their gaming distribution and with that the hardware will easily be better than Vita.

As for controls, keep in mind Android (and probably iOS/WP8) can sync with any bluetooth controller. So while its not as mobile, it can be comparable.

But I don't want to start a gaming vs arguement. My main point is still that Vita should have been a smartphone and Vita will be dead early.
