Also, an interview with Shuhei Yoshida about convincing developers to work for PS Vita:

I really like the guy. He seems totally legitimate and honest whenever he speaks, and the fact he engages in Sony games (i.e. Sound Shapes) I think is great too.
About the article - it's certainly interesting to hear him talk about the Vita. In all honesty, it's not really sounding too great at the moment. Things like:
"Yoshida said Vita will become an attractive platform "when we are able to define what PS Vita is." He said Sony needs to show third parties what Vita players buy, and what kind of games work best on the platform. At that point, Sony will be able to entice more developers to support the handheld."
Make sense though. If Sony can show that Vita is a viable platform for shooters like Uncharted or action games like Assassin's Creed, then it may get more people on board. I think they really need to get pushing to show Japanese developers that their RPG's sell well on the platform (use Persona 4 as an example) to help get a better footing in that market.
But yeah, interesting stuff.
