Pointing out that customers are choosing the 3DS over the Vita does not show that the Vita's sales are better than people are making them out to be. In fact, it does the opposite. The 3DS was selling much better in Japan before its price cut than the Vita has been selling at the same price, and editorials were constantly exclaiming that the 3DS was in a lot of trouble because of those sales. The "why" isn't very important; the fact is that the Vita is selling terribly even in comparison to a console that was selling poorly, and it's Sony's responsibility to fix that. If the Vita continues to sell terribly, it means Sony is doing a terrible job of selling their product and they deserve to be criticized. ^ @VicViper, I don't really care what the Vita has or why it's selling poorly, I'm just saying that although this was one of its best weeks in HW sales, it was still a poor performance, as most of the Vita's weeks have been. We shouldn't give Sony a pat on the back just for making it to 25k. We should get in their face and yell at them to try harder. |
the why is the core of every debate, to ignore it is to accept being willfully ignorant on the subject
and no you should only criticize Sony if the console fails to do what it was meant to do, and it not, it's actually excelling at it as far as I'm concerned just priced out of most of it's markets reach which is easily remedy with the only factor being time, so that's what I say, give it time and until then enjoy or the greatest handheld games/ experiences ever made on the greatest handheld gaming console ever made...or don't
not everything needs to be the market leader to be a great success, you'd think after this gen more than ever people would realize that
