| kitler53 said: not calling you out as the problem, but vita gets a lot of critisim for that. if a console franchise is an exact replica (PSASBR) then it is just a port and why would anyone want that on a handheld. if a console franchise tailors the experience to the handheld (Uncharted:GA, ACIII:L) than it is just a watered down experience not worthy of its console cousin. |
There's a middle ground between the two. 3D Land, for example, is both tailored to the handhelds and it is more than a watered-down experience. It is, after all, made by one of Nintendo's A-teams, EAD Tokyo. Mario Kart 7, Animal Crossing, etc. are also all made by the better teams at Nintendo, usually by the same folks who make the console games (but who have experience making handheld titles).
Contrast that with the Vita games. Uncharted was not made by the guys who made the console versions. Liberation was not made by the main Assassin's Creed team. Declassified, same deal.
Vita's predicament is similar to the third-party situation on the Wii. The name is slapped on, but the talent level that built the name is largely absent.
