I'm not personally defining what handheld gaming is. I'm talking about what successful handheld gaming has been for the last 20+ years and the types of games that have been available that supported that success. There's a massive difference, and as I've just pointed out, games like Battlefield have never been part of that. Ever. So complaining that they aren't part of it now is as relevant as complaining that Mario isn't on the Vita.

yes yes you are. So you measure what should be or shouldn't based on sales? God forbid gamers wanting games like Dark Souls then...From Software should make a COD clone on the home consoles.You really need to understand there are those who enjoy games that might not really be the best sellers but still are high quality games.

lol who complains about mario not on vita? That's a bit random

I'm telling you that there have been many games like Crisis Core, GOW, Resistance Retribution etc last gen that could have REALLY used a second stick and would have made the experience so much better. I'm currently playing Gravity Rush and the second stick is a godssend for portable gaming. With two sticks a game like Battlefield WILL work and will work great on the vita.

Let's put all personal preferences aside. having more control options is a good thing so stop trying to spin it just to defend Nintendo. 3rd party devs would really like it too if not we won't see the birth of that fugly cppro. If the system itself had the second stick and the gamers didn't have to buy an extra peripheral to play with one, more devs will surely make use of it.

You've gone off the deep end here. Where did I say anything about games like Dark Souls? Dark Souls and others like it are able to find an audience (albeit a niche one) because they're following countless other RPG games on home consoles. I'm not saying games with low sales are worthless, I'm saying there are genres that have never been greatly required on handhelds for handhelds to thrive.

The original statement was about a grand total of three games in genres that have had a few moderately successful appearances on handhelds (but nowhere close to the success they've seen on home consoles), and specifically one game from a series that has never appeared on a handheld before.  That's where the Mario on Vita analogy comes in, as you're never going to see it on Vita or any other non-Nintendo platform. Battlefield has proven to be just as likely to be found on any handheld as Mario has to be found anywhere else. So why complain that Battlefield isn't going to work on 3DS when there's nothing to suggest it would be released on the thing even with the perfect control options? Vita has the dual analog option, is there a Battlefield in the works? Nope, or at least, none that we know of, and given the history of the series, it's probable it will stay that way.

That's all I'm saying. I just don't think it's particularly unreasonable to question why it's important that a handheld isn't going to get a game from a series that's never been on a handheld before.

facepalm, the whole point just flew over your head there

Fact of the matter is there WILL be those who want games like COD, Battlefield, Crisis Core etc on the system. Such games will not work very well without a second nub. People like to have such an option and it's apparent devs do too. You say you aren't but you are focusing on sales here. My point is that stop focusing on sales. There will always be games that are much more suitable for dual nubs/sticks on a handheld. We have seen COD and medal of honor like games on handhelds you know. The psp ones were actually pretty decent too. With a second stick on the psp they would have been even better. This is why so many vita games have worked like a dream thanks to the second stick. This is also why I am more optimisitc about AC Liberations because the second stick is very important to such a game.

That definitely is not all you're saying. The initial post from you said something along the lines of, I hope such things stay away from my handheld and that's not what you want from it. Which is a very narrow minded pov. It's not only about you nor is it only about the most successful franchises in the history of the handheld. It's only about the simple fact that having more options for gameplay is good for gamers and devs alike. This is a fact. So stop running around that. People have every right to say where the fuck is my second nub lol or something like that
