I'm a Vita owner and I have to say that it's an awesome system. It doesn't make a lot of mistakes. It may actually be perfect. I'm willing to bet that my collection of Vita software (especially if you include PSP titles) is amongst the highest of anybody on this site. The Vita actually deserves to do well this holiday season.

Unfortunately, the Vita still doesn't have any sort of buzz. It's still expensive. It will have some must-play software in the form of Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty but I (regrettably) feel that it will not do much to increase the Vita's station. I always hate to see a company give consumers a good product and to see that product be ignored but that's what I suspect will happen with the Vita this Christmas.

Meanwhile (as I stated in the other thread), the Wii is going to be priced lower than dirt. It will be low enough to qualify as an impulse buy. Hell, I may get another Wii just to use as a Netflix box in one of my other bedrooms.

The Wii is going to win out over the Vita. If it's lucky, the only consoles the Vita will beat will be the PSP and the original DS and even then, I'm not sure. A bold statement? Possibly. We'll try to bump THIS thread in January since the other thread got locked.

really?

OT - vita is going to get slaughtered.  wii, ds will both outsell it.  hell, several brands of those cheap black friday video poker devices will outsell it.

You're forgetting the hidden costs associated with dirt.
