It's sad to see such an awesome device perform like this.


psone - 33mhz - 102million units
n64 - 94mhz - 32m
saturn - dual core 30mhz - 9m
----------------------------------------------
ps2 - 333mhz - 155m
xbox - 750mhz - 24m
gamecube - 485mhz - 21m
----------------------------------------------
ps3 - 7 core 3ghz cell - 64m
xbox - tri core 3.2ghz - 67m
wii - 749mhz - 97m

even in handhelds power =/= sales

psp - dual core 333 mhz - 71m
DS - 66mhz+33mhz - 151m

 

The most powerful machine I don't think in the history of console wars has never came out on top sales and profits wise. it's very odd that companys havn't figured it out yet that more mhz just doesn't right up equal more games, gamers or sales on their systems.

Tis a bit sad considing how absolutely incredible the psp was compared to the DS but I think the homebrew community made more use of the psps' power than any developer ever did.


I'm aware of the pattern. I'm fine with the Vita not being number 1. I never expected it to be. If this gen played out like PSP/DS only even more in favor of Nintendo, I would be fine with that. But it sucks that it's doing so much worse than that. Also, when I say awesome device I don't mean just hardware. The system actually has an awesome library for those that want deep games as well as the short burst pick up and play fans. Access to a lot of the PSP's library and soon a decent chunk of the PSOne's library. It has an awesome feature set. It's an all around great device but sadly consumers just don't want it.


What pickup and play games are available?  If they exist I'm not aware of them, that's how bad the marketing of the Vita has been.  Consumers cannot make buying decisions if you don't inform them.  This has been one of the worst managed releases in memory, it literally has no buzz...
