And what pretail may that be?  Monster Hunter 4?  A sequel to a console title.  Zelda?  Oh right Ocarina of time is a port of a console title.  Mario Kart 7?  Yes a sequel to the console title.  Super Mario 3D Land?  Closest thing... and is a 3D version of a 2D title, which happens to be on the Wii.  Kid Icarus could have been done on the Wii.  Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop is being compared to Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, which are console games.

Don't try to downplay Kid Icarus.  It's precisely the type of game I'm taking about.  You can't get it on the Wii or Wii U, you have to buy a 3DS to enjoy it.  And what difference does it make that it could've been done on Wii?  The point is that it isn't on Wii. Super Mario 3D Land

But let me make this easy for you to understand by giving you this one perfect example:  Notice how main series Pokemon are ONLY released on Nintendo's handhelds...  If you buy a Nintendo home console, the best you can do for a Pokemon fix is a spinoff.  If you want Pokemon, you MUST buy a Nintendo handheld.

Vita's biggest games are down-sized console games that are releasing alongside superior versions of said games on HD consoles.  And calling a Nihilistic developed Call of Duty a down-sizing is putting things very nicely here.  Sony is making the Vita an extension of the PS3 and that will be the system's undoing.  Cross buy may hurt more than it helps.
