theprof00 said: I think the difference between myself and dissenters, is that I'm of a realistic understanding of what success constitutes. For example, I'm pretty sure some of the bigger posters on here have called psp a failure, and while vita hasn't exactly done psp numbers, there's plenty of time to improve. Again, I will ask, would there be a thread if Sony had cut the price. Let's pretend Sony did have enough money to cut it safely, let's pretend these excuse variables didn't exist. Would there have been a thread if Vita had dropped in price previously to selling what 3ds did. Yes. Yes there would. Even later in its life, even if it becomes more successful than the psp, I imagine there will be all kinds of excuses to continue trolling it. |
The point being even if sales go even lower than this, as long as the stores keep ordering the PSVita, means there still is demand for the system. Many may have a snarky, condescending and just plain belittling of your view because they may differ from your opinion. well to tell you what.
Fact is pretty much many gamer's today in this thread have shown such attitudes in this thread of being:
con·de·scend·ing
belittling
toward other's and you can see who exactly they are.
I think many in this thread have really missed your point , Sony see's no need to hurry up and lower the price , because the PSVita is meant for the long haul. you have to have a business plan, for their product and in this case the plan is for each and every playstation support cycle is 10 years, sometimes it may not work out that way, such as the PSPGo, but other's like the PS1,PS2 Have been able to atain such length of time on the market, the PSP may even join the ps1 and PS2 in the 10 year mark on being in the retail chain.
Sony made the PSVita with a Hardware level that was made to be uptodate with the same smartphones and Tablets that are currently on the market Today, for one the PSVita has 128 MB of GPU dedicated Video ram, no other Handheld has that much dedicated video ram, the 3DS has 6 MB!, even smartphones has 64 MB of Video ram at most.
To think that its just about the here and Now, is really short sighted in my opinion, Sony has a plan for the PSVita if that plan fails or succeeds is anyone's guess, but the fact that even with the number's of sales that Sony has right now,Sony has made other area's and inroads to offset the PSVita's less than ideal market position it finds itself in right now, but that does not mean outright thing's cannot get better or worse. Though it does show that Sony is sticking to its guns on pricing for the PSVita. Does not matter if they have to or not, the fact that they are is what it is. Good or Bad we have yet to see how the PSVita's future plays out.
