Reduce the prices of 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB cards to $10, $20, $30, and $40, respectively. 5.) Get more games unique to the Vita published (obviously). |
I think this is the best proposition.. better than...
1. Lower the software price of new titles to $34.99 USD.
-It will not make any difference, people will not buy games that doesn't know exist at a little lower price. But SONY seems to be thinking on doing this.. Freedom Wars is gonna release at 30$ on Physical.
2. Build up the Vita's gaming library.
-You should look to this thread: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=159298&page=1
Funfact, vita got released as much games as 3DS last year.. and this year seems to have a lot more.
3. Make an official PS4/Vita bundle SKU, and retail for $499 USD.
-Could help, but not enough by it self...
4. Make a digital-only Vita and retail it for less.
It isn't a bad idea, I go mostly digital and seems like a lot of vita owners too, but I still prefer to have the option to buy physical from time on time...
5. Localize more games.
arround 60% of vita release recently have been localization... that if we include indies as western release.. because retail games almost 90% (i could say) are japanese games localized, SONY, XSeed, NISA, Aksys, ATLUS, and now IdeaFactory, GungHo and Compile Heart have been working a lot to release games from Japan in the west... Vita until now have been a niche-japanese-likes-oriented handheld...
What Vita need rigth now is mass appeal with games oriented to western consumer.. shooters, dungen rpgs, even RTS could fit on the Vita... and better releases of popular franchises like Assasin creeds, COD, GOW, Gran Turismo, GTA, would help a lot...
