| ROBOTECHHEAVEN said: the reason the vita was not a success like sony wanted, is because sony themselves killed the system with poor 1st support and overpriced memory cards and system. Also poor ads and deals to get ppl to buy the system, all the issues with the vita remain soley on the shoulders of sony, its just that simple. I myself love the vita , I own the system with over 75 games, but using the excuse they keep using for the poor received vita is the mobile market is severly flawed at its core and they know that themselves. the Nintendo 3ds has sold over 55 million systems and when its done will come close to 70 million I wager, yes its a big gap from the Nintendo ds but its still a very healthy market with the so called mobile market that sony is blaming the fate of the vita on. |
The combined DS and PSP generation was 230 million the 3DS and Vita will be lucky to hit 80 million.
So the handheld market has suffered a huge contraction and while Nintendo can leverage 26 years in the handheld market Sony can't.
Expecting any new handhelds from either is foolish smartphones are simply becoming to powerful for dedicated handhelds to make sense.
