At the end of the day it's a shame as it really is a brilliant handheld - easily the best handheld gaming device ever. Pity that the lack of top tier games is not here (yet) and high than normal price in thse hard times are affecteing sales.

But it sure as hell doesn't affect me enjoying it immensely and that at the end of day is all that matters.

Vita is easily the only console what has had consistent negativity thrown at it from the get go. One of those devices that you can easily dismiss if never played it, but once played is hard to ignore it's quality.

Uh, are you serious? The Wii spent its entire existence having negativity thrown at it--I think the Vita has some catching up to do...if it lives long enough<--intentional irony on that last bit

The Wii negativity was virtually no affect on its sales since the system was bought by the mainstream/casuals. More specifically, families.

No matter how much negatitvty the media threw at it, it didn't matter since soccer moms don't do their research. They see Nintendo, they see Mario, MUST BUY!
