Majority? Where are you getting your data? Is that 51% because that isn't saying much.

Now I'm telling you, don't fool yourself. The Vita does not stand for 49% of the portable market.

 

I've seen a study that shows that most handheld gaming is actually done in the home, it is used as a prefered console by many and is useful regardless is you are a constant traveller.

But how many of those played CoD/GTA/AC?

 

So a smarthpone/iPad/laptop is an option? Those are not cheap either. $1000 is an exaggeration because you can get a decent sized TV for less, and though there are subsidized smartphones there are still pricey and include expensive contracts.

They may not be cheap, but they offer way more than gaming. After all, they are computers. And a Vita can't replace a phone.


The PSP sold over 70 million (more than the PS3 or the 360 have sold), it was and is still a viable system with hardcore titles. Just because Nintendo is the market leader does not mean everything else isn't a good product/option. Consumers have already spoken.

The PSP was cheaper than Vita is now, and the market has changed.
