ROBOTECHHEAVEN said: Sony is completely at fault for the vita's situation , no one to blame but themselves. Memory cards are over priced alot, the games are sometimes over priced, the mindset to not have their best 1st party studios develope games for it and then the lack of advertising for the system or its games. I love my vita but its going to be remembered as being a system with great potential that never lived up to what it could have done, because sony never truly invested with the system. When u say to the world that the vita is considered a assessory for the ps4, and not considering it as a system with its own idenity , then yes u killed your own device..... |
PSP had as much expensive memory card and the price of Vita games are the same as PSP and people said PSP advertising was bad too but PSP sold well and Vita solde bad.
But PSP had good 3rd party support and Vita not

The Vita has been living on nothing but third party support for about two years now. It's pretty good third party support too. Quality indie titles, but most importantly, Japanese developed games. There's a lot of good third party stuff here already, and still a fair bit more coming. And I do mean localized coming. Granted, it might not seem like "good" third party support if you aren't a fan of Japanese game styles, but at the same time, it's not fair to write off a quality game just because it isn't your type of game.

quality don't always mean better sales and i never talked about quality in my comment
Indie will never boost consoles and most Japanese games are late port or niche games they will never boost any consoles either and western support is catastrophic home consoles are getting games nearly every week and then third party wonder why handheld are doing bad this generations.

Talking about a failed console in terms of sales seems silly to me. I mean, the Vita has already failed. It's not going to fail anymore past losing all first party support. Whether the games sell well and push consoles or not is a moot point. Clearly they're still selling well enough for more games to keep coming, and that's all that matters. What's important as a Vita owner is sustaining the current Vita owners, not necessarily attracting new ones.
