Horrible, awful thread. This back and forth bickering over who has the most games is so petty and childish. It's like 2008 all over again. I'll never understand that. Pick the system you like, which has the games you like; there is no need to keep hating on the other.
The assertion that Vita games are over-hyped is also ridiculous. It's a Vita NEWS THREAD, what the hell are they supposed to do? NOT discuss newly announced titles? If 3DS fans don't want to talk about new 3DS games then that's their business, but to give Vita fans grief for doing it is pitiful. Personally, I think it's awesome that the Vita has such a nifty sense of community, with fans who are clearly enjoying their console. I'm sure there are other websites with great 3DS communities.
As far as why developers and publishers are working on Vita projects, that's pretty easy: it's a 'blue ocean' strategy. If everyone jumped on 3DS development, you'd see studios choked out by the competition at an alarming rate. It just makes sense to attempt to create a competing market.
Honestly, the over-zealous Vita haters we have on these forums do nothing but make the 3DS fanbase look bad. Yeah, I know it's only a few, the vocal minority, but the constant hating, the constant mockery and trolling, it's so classless. It's also the same individuals in every Vita thread who make the same smug comments. You'd think being on the side that is undisputedly on top would mean the hating would be less necessary, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
And all because one person said "it seems like to me," which could have been answered simply and without malice. What an embarrassing mess. This is why many people walk away from the gaming culture shaking their heads.
