Not really. All it takes is games. There's a few great games coming this June(at least in Japan) and E3 we should get some release dates for COD Vita and possibly Assassins Creed. |
Games and a reasonable price. Why buy a Vita when you can get a PS3 for the same price? Speaking of games, Sony would need a recognisable IP on their console; one which made the PSP popular in Japan is now gone. A good portion of Nintendo's IP are popular and they can easily provide the handheld with support. No matter how awesome Gravity Rush may be, it's a brand new IP on a not-so-hot piece of hardware.
The planning of Vita's launch should have been planned and executed better. The price was and is much too high; a lesson learned by Nintendo. Securing popular titles such as CoD, MH, etc. on launch could've given them a nice and powerful entry into the market but sadly that didn't take place. Maybe they should have waited a year before going though with producing the hardware to be available for purchase.
Hopefully they can pull off a "miracle" because Vita really is a nice piece of tech and I'd like to see it grow and prosper. I planned on getting one myself.
