Also seem to be some duplicate accounts being created to hurl abuse at the Vita and OP? It's already had a very solid set of 2015 releases even in the West and we're only 1 month in. Given that PSPs were only stopped being sold in 2014, I don't see why people are saying Sony look like they're preparing to drop it. It was clear they changed their objectives with the Vita after 2012 didn't work out. It's a profitable product for them, they make money on each additional unit sold, a killing on memory cards and plenty of royalties from all the software it has. It's user-base is very active in purchasing software and the software being developed for it is done in full knowledge of the potential user-base hence why companies continue to support it release after release. 2015 is looking like yet another great year of software for the Vita globally too keeping the existing user-base happy. I don't get why it pains so many on this forum to accept that the Vita does have positives going for it and to trash it at every opportunity. Did it steal your lunch money when you were at school or something? |
PSP was a handheld that sold over 80 million, Vita will be lucky to sell 1/5 of that hence why people expect it to get a substantially shorter life.
Nobody is saying Vita doesn't have good games, just that it lacks big games that will have a meaningful impact on hardware sales.
Who's trashing it? If anything the whole point of this thread was to trash on the Wii U using "facts" to make it seem like Vita is better.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
