By no game they mean vita has no game that people care about

That's entirely subjective though and very much dependent on people's taste - if you're in to big western AAA games then you have a point, but if you like more niche things especially from Japan then Vita has lots of games. A generalisation like that is almost never entirely true

That's why people tend either to love the Vita or take the piss out of it - you'll find it has a lot to do with people's tastes


Yes i agree with you but i think majority here prefer AAA games and we should respect their choice i don't have any problem with indies games even if i don't like them but problem is the lack of AAA games when vita launched i thougth vita will have all type of games to attract all audience but they wasn't able to bring AAA games witch attracted psp before.

True, but the choices of more niche audiences are relevent as well and there is an argument that the more mainstream audience in the west aren't interested in console-type experiences on handhelds anyway, or in handhelds at all, in which case Sony may as well concentrate on more niche genres where there's already a fanbase and a range of titles which can be built upon to attract similar people to invest in the platform

A lot of it is down to whether or not you think that in today's market, it is even possible for Vita to succeed in the west like the PSP did. Given the growing strength of mobile and the fact that though solid (and way better than Vita's), even 3DS sales in the west aren't spectacular, I'm beginning to think it was always impossible for Vita to succeed in that way

Vita has a future, but the AAA-in-your-hands experience, though it can work, doesn't seem to be a viable path to large-scale success so you may as well cater to the fans you've got, and get others like them to join in, even if overall that isn't a massive market (still workable though)
