There's something I find odd about calling this version a 'legacy' version. Why are they now calling different versions of essentially the same console, but a newer version, a 'legacy' console. I just find that odd. Now they're dividing their consoles into sub groups or something...? Does that main the original 3DS is a legacy model too..?

No idea. I believe it's just PR BS to calm down the masses It was a way of avoiding a shit storm, otherwise they'd be attacked for killing it off even though only 3rd party has supported it the past 3 years

Yeah, I sorta suspect that myself. Most people would not like to hear what hints at them ending the console early.

The funny part is. Look at all the main Vita users on this forum. We're all just "no shit Sherlock" to the notion Sony is done with it hahah.

No shitstorm from the real Vita users.

Then can we all agree Sony shouldn't make anymore official statements about the Vita. The whole thing was a little silly, but from what I have seen, it was more contained on this site compared to others.
