The way it should be sold is as a PlayStation Phone, the ultimate gamers phone. The current Vita is the perfect form factor. The driving force behind it would be the ability to play full featured handheld and console games on the go, without the need for additional accessories. With access to PS Now and Remote Play over 4G, a user could jump in and play home consoles games any time anywhere to go along with the massive cataloge of local PS Vita titles, and Legacy PSP and PSOne titles. |
IIRC the Vita did have a 3G version that could kind of act like a phone. They discontinued it I think.
Another problem with phones (and one I forgot to mention last time) is that phones evolve at a rapid pace. People don't keep phones for more than 2 years, which is peanuts in a normal consoles life span. OEMs are expected to release a new model every year, or they risk falling behind the competition. The constant change in hardware will make it hard for big game devs (AA-AAA) to make games for the thing.
Edit: Also, since it'll be Android, Piracy will be a huge issue
