Indeed, You can see when people state the obvious (in this site and many others) about being a commercial failure you have always comments following like "I won't buy this just for 1 game", "nintendo can't do anything right", "my wii u is collecting dust", "it deserved" and nothing happens. But when its vita is like "oh, it's ahead of its time", "so many games! I can't even decide wich i will get".

Yeah, I can't even imagine how vita owners can stand this massive downplaying...

edit: if it wasn't for our comments, this thread would be buried to irrelevance really fast, like the rest of the vita threads. Making even harder for me to see this constant downplaying that he is talking about.

I think what makes it seem that there is a lot of downplaying on the Vita is how theres Not enough positive threads about it. 

 

Theres not enough Hype on its games here on Vgchartz, and even on gaming sites I go to like IGN. 

 

Eventhough the Vita has sold more than the Wii U, the difference of amount of people talking about it (both positive and negative) comparing to the Wii U is HUGE!!!!! (In other words the Wii U gets more talked about ) 

I guess people who have and enjoy the Vita for the most part have less to prove, comercially the console failed but in terms of quality of handheld it is unrivaled, so for the users we could go out and bang on about how many fantastic titles the system does actually have... or we could just say fuck it and sit back to enjoy the machine ourselves lol, I do often find myself preaching about how great the system is, but when someone replies with "well it's a legacy console tho" I'm just like... sure thing buddy, it sure is. Can't really win someone over who just dreads that the thing might actually be amazing to the point where the main argument held about it is based on a statement in a financial report

Even thought that comment was referring to the OLED model and obviously not the version still in full production which has outsold the Wii-U each week this year (bar 1) and which is just 20k units short of the X1 this week, but I guess some people still think the PS3 haz no gaems, the N64 is designed for people with 3 hands only and that The Genesis does what Nintendont.
