Maybe I am. But let's look at this scenario: Vita's competition is already out at crushing strength (3DS, DS and even its brother PSP hurting its sales in Japan). I don't see it getting worse for the Vita. In fact it should improve as 3DS saturates market, PSP support ends in Japan, and PS Vita price naturally drops as its library increases. Wii U however is pretty much alone. It's the one supposed to have the hype on its side, yet it is being eclipsed by the previous gen PS360. Can you imagine what is going to happen when PS4 and 720 are out at full force / full hype, and PS360 are even cheaper? This could put the Wii U in a critical situation. |
That's my thoughts too be honest.... But many people did write off the PS3 (like they currently are with the Vita)... So there is still time to rescue it... though it is going to be potentially a difficult year for them if they are not careful and dont have the games ready to show for E3 (no fireworks displays :).
My biggest problem with the device is that is is totally underpowered... unlike the Vita.. which is good honest hardcore tech, and it can do a PS3... slow years and improve (as long as its supported right). No reason why it cannot do a PS3... but the Wii-u running tech that is just a little better than current HD machines of 6 or 7 years, could really be its undoing. Can I see people wanting a a Wii-u in two or three years time... I just dont see it... I just dont think it will have the legs.
