I think Sony is trying to focus too much on bringing the console type of games to a handheld device and it's just not going to work. They have to find that game that caters to the handheld experience. They need an IP that is fun, addictive, kid friendly, and with great replay value. It doesn't even have to be a very deep game, just something that will make kids go back and play for hours.

At the end of he day, kids will be the majority that play handhelds. Sony can't expect a handheld to move hardware when Killzone Mercenary is your big gun in the West. Just wont happen.

The problem is Sony is doing everything it can not to focus on Vita. Seriously man, as I've said - 2 AAA games for a whole year - you can't say that this type of games doesn't work. The only thing we can say is that this few AAA games don't work. How is it possible, that somehow these regular console experiences on the go did work for the PSP? Regular GTA, MGS, GoW, jRPG, GT, Medal of Honour, etc. with regular home console experience somehow turned PSP into a success and are the best selling games. The problem with Vita is that... There is no GTA. No MGS. No GoW. No Medal of Honour. Like 3 jRPGs?

Sony needs to stop giving PS3 AAA games left and right and channel that support to Vita instead and it will sell. I really can't blame people in the West for not caring about Vita, when all we have coming is Borderlands 2 and Gravity Rush 2. Yet another year with 2 AAA games? :(

3rd partie don't one to make game on Vita not Sony sony don't need to money hat third party to get games on ps3 but not Vita.

Do you think Sony can moneyhat all the games you list?

They should moneyhat GTA and maybe a MGS, that would be enough. The most important thing is they have to make their own games! In 2013 they released on PS3: God of War: Ascension, The Last of Us, Rain, Puppeteer, Beyond: Two Souls, Ni No Kuni, and now Gran Turismo 6 is coming... to the PS3 as well! And they have been already working on PS4 games. All these games should have come to the PSV instead. Do you think Vita would be selling this bad if it had these games as exclusives? Sony is clearly capable of pumping out many quality titles per year, if people got these games this year nobody would doubt the future of the console, nobody would say there are no games, people would buy the console and 3rd parties would join the party without moneyhatting. But Sony is the one who has to make the first move and releasing 2-3 games per year won't cut it for Vita, just like it wouldn't cut it for any other console. We need a year with 8-10 AAA games from Sony, so that we get a big game every single month.
