| Egann said: I still regularly use my PSP. In fact, including PSOne Classics I likely have more titles for it than any of my other consoles. It's certainly my favorite handheld, although the original Gameboy and the DS are probably more influential. I actually opted to get a PSP with the money I could have spent on a smartphone. I do not regret this decision one bit; I got way more value out of a $40 game every other month than I would have ever gotten out of a $60 a month data plan--especially when WiFi is everywhere. I will probably keep my PSP until it breaks. The sad thing with the Vita was Sony made it entirely too pretty and powerful. You don't actually want production values on a handheld to climb too high; most devs for them work on AA budgets at best. This is a magnificent example of know thy business partners. I really hope Sony tries the handheld thing one more time. A smartphone with button inputs and an SD card slot would be fantastic, especially if Sony doesn't try to murder the bankers again. |
Totally agree with everything you said on the Vita. Instead of wasting on the best tech available, they should have spend that money on making it backwards compatible! I swear I feel it would have sold at least 20m if it was backwards compatible. The PSP library warrents it! The reason why the PSP had so many games is because production was so low! IMO they completely tried to throw a Strong Haymaker punch to the 3DS by making it so beefy, but it COMPELETY missed it's mark.
