I didn't have a problem with the games.
The games by in large have been great. They aren't killer app, must buy games (there were a handful of those in the first year or two at which point these higher budget games were going to a tiny audience of PSV owners) but certainly a lot more worthy of gaming time than the typical mobile game. I just don't think the difference in price or more importantly, having to carry around another device on which to play them merits using one on a regular basis.
If I had one jarring complaint about the PSV, it would have been the proprietary memory card, which I fully understand exist to subsidize PSV hardware sales. Unfortunately, it's hard to come to terms with having to pay that much for storage on top of the price of the games themselves, which are priced the same as the retail chip based units.
The irony with the memory card pricing is that if they were cheaper, I would have bought far more games as it became quite a hassle to juggle which games I wanted to keep on memory cards.
The end result; unless I want to delete one game, it's either buy a retail copy or don't even bother at all since must play games on the platform are quite rare.
The same goes with apps and media. Since storage comes at such a premium, why would I use it for storing and watching media content? The answer is I don't.
