.....So they should make an Xperia VITA, for example, that is a great smartphone, but it also offers the possibility of playing VITA games....

 

I am not here trying to defend the Vita or anything like that, but don´t you understand how IMPOSSIBLE it is today, to do a smartphone 

with the basic OS wind/andr/ios provide, waist resources running those, play games as good looking and complex like the first Assassins 

creed on the Vita, and most importantly have the actual buttons/controls? 

Don´t you understand it is impossible as of today to make a smartphone that powerfull, with the actuall controls plus 

elegance of a smartphone plus heat problems? 

Yea Sony should of made a weakass gaming machine so that we would be able to make calls with it...... 

really??? Look the Vita has problems, the fact that it is not a phone is not one of them. 

As for the numbers, seems like a great start for a machine I want to have when I have the resources to do so 

(considering the weak marketshare Sony has in this market).

 

That is why I was asking in an earlier post how the Xperia Z compares to the VITA specs-wise.   The Xperia Z supports 1080p so I guess the graphics processor should be nice, but I really dont nothing anything about how good it is spec-wise.   I think it could be done, if Sony makes the device with certain ammount of RAM for the Android apps/OS, and other extra ammount only available for the VITA games.  Similar to what is is doing with the PS4.    They should only make the games compatible with Android, and not the whole VITA OS.    It would be similar to making PS1 and PSP games to run on Android; obviously it would require more power, but I really dont think it is impossible.

I support the VITA, but that does not mean I cant see the mistakes Sony is having with it.    People right now want a multi-purpose device, and if it manages to comes with a great phone (which is a necessity) even better.   The VITA even though has great games, is very far from being the ultimate gaming device (which is just a comodity), and also does not have much non-gaming apps, so it is not selling that good.      

That is why I am saying that Sony should increase the "VITA platform" numbers, by adding VITA functionality to devices that sell a lot better, in which this case are their Smartphones.
