I agree the price is to high, especially for a platform with so little support. There are things Sony could do to stimulate Vita sales. But it wouldn't be enough to bring back notable 3rd party support. Even Sony doesn't want to make Vita games. Again, 3rd parties have lost interest in PS3 and 360 even though they move significantly more software than Vita could ever hope. |
True. Price always was a problem, but if shortly after launch, after PSV ran out of early adopter ready to buy it at that price, it seemed its biggest problem, made even more serious by expensive nonstandard memcards, later it became the second of its three biggest problems, surpassed by Sony itself not supporting it enough with first party games and preceding bad or nonexistent marketing. Price can be fixed, bad marketing too, but it won't take it very far without Sony showing it has some trust for the product. And at this point it's so late that without some form of brand renewal, it couldn't work, Sony can't just tell people "hey, now I really believe in this old, neglected product of mine, buy it!".
