(lets be real here lol) I mean if you want proof look at japan. Vita gets no lie about 5-10x more games released in a month compared to 3ds. I see people complain about WiiU support over there with third party being almost non existent but in reality Nintendo supports it alot more than Sony does with the Vita. Yet here we are :0 |
@ Bold, like Pezus said, you do understand that a lot of this third-party support is courted directly by Sony? Most of the announcements from today were specifically organized by their third-party relations team.
@ Underlined, and again, the majority of that support is Sony-courted. Either by devs that have long-standing relationships with Sony and continue to develop for that reason (not dissimilar to devs like Shin'en on Nintendo consoles) or that the games are PS3/Vita from bigger pubs. Which again, is a product of Sony intervention giving them easy porting tools between the PlayStation ecosystem (Tecmo-Koei do this a lot, as well as Namco-Bandai).
What Sony do for the Vita may not be $$$ AAA games, but they still do make efforts with the console that seem to largely go un-noticed.
