OT: I finally got to try it at Best Buy and I have to say I couldn't disagree more. It was light (without feeling cheap), very comfortable to hold, and the touch screen was incredibly responsive and looked quite nice as well. The only negative for me was the lack of analogue shoulder triggers and it does take a little getting used to having the right stick above the buttons, but that was really a moot point. And I'm definitely buying Rayman now (damn, it looks nice!). Super hyped for the system even more after trying it out. |
Yes it was light and the screen looked great but you couldn't use the touch screen while holding it normally could you? Also the vertical bumps on the back made it much better to hold with one hand but they didn't feel the best when holding it traditionally. I agree with Rayman, it was great and I loved how it made music based off what was happening.

Actually I think it is because I am so used to Vita. Since both the gamepad and the vita are so similar I was really expecting it to feel similar. Instead the gamepad is like nothing else. The vertical grips on the back are what really differentiate the two.
