huh?


Considering the amount of improvements (memory; more lightweight; supposedly more comfortable to hold & vastly improved battery life) compared to the one downgrade in the screen, I can see where he's coming from.

Kind of similar to what happened with 3DS XL really.  Released a much improved model in many ways but it had crap speakers compared to the original 3DS.  

I wouldn't say that the screen issue is as clear cut as it seems, either.  Objectively I think OLED is better but it still suffers from burn in and mura effects and some of the colour pallette is a lot further off being "correct" than the LED screen.

I'm considering a Vita 2000 simply for the battery life & better ergonomics.  For me, the screen is a downgrade but the other improvements vastly outweigh that, so overall I'd consider it an improved version.
