Yeah, they all have potential. Question is though if people are willing to spend money on both a home console version and a portable version with less content. Because that's a lot of money.

I guess we'll see soon enough.

They will if they want to play it on the road and if it's not available on consoles, like Golden Abyss and Bioshock Vita. And who says it has to have less content? LBPV is going to have more features than it's console counterparts. People clearly want Uncharted on PSV, it's sold 600k on a system that's only sold 2 million, Uncharted is probably near on around 800k if you count digital sales


Even if they want it that doesn't mean they have the money for it.

There is no rule that says all Vita games has to have less content than PS3 games, but the size of blue-ray discs are way greater than the available size for Vita games. So, obviously they have more room for content in the PS3 versions.

@underlined Plenty of people bought console experiences on the PSP and Uncharted has sold very well considering it's attach rate. This argument doesn't make much sense to me anyway, console-like handheld games are the same price as any handheld game, and obviously handheld games aren't held back by people not having the money for them. 

@Bold Not really, most games on PS3 take up less than 8gb, and Vita games take up a lot less space as the resolution a vita game is running at is significantly lower than that of a PS3 game, meaning textures and other assets are at lower resolutions, meaning they'll take up less space. Also, SD cards can easily expand if needed; in the same way some games use a dual layer blu-ray, vita games can easily transition to bigger cards if needed.
