Wrong, handheld consoles are not something new, people know what can expect from handheld console,people know they are not phones that they are gaming devices on 1st place. 3DS and Vita proves that 3G/LTE are not important feature for handheld consoles. |
I honestly can not believe you are using 3DS and Vita as the example here. PSP and DS sold nearly 250M devices by being leaders in the mobile elctronics world. Vita and 3DS have sold not even sold 1/3 of that, thanks to the lack of evolving with the times. Now, than with this blunder, I will be surprised if Switch can make it to 30 million units. Console and handhelds are not impervious to changing market. If they continue don't grow, and stay competitive with the competition (PC, Laptops, Tablets, Set Top Boxes, Smart TV, Smartphones) then they will become unsustainable.

If they are lacking the basic applications (Web Browser, Netflix, Hulu, Music, Photos, etc.) then I will be completely :S

wifi from phone hotspot.. and a USB battery |
Easier solution, continue to use my 3G Vita, because it appears mobile/handheld tech decided to come to a dead stop, and then proceed to reverse over the last five years. It blows me away that my Phone from 5 years ago is still a more versitle, and entertaining device than the latest Xperia I had.

Yes, and it remains the best mobile device ever made. Unfortunatly, Sony decided to cease support and seriously gimp it, in order focus its efforts on the Xperia Google Phone line instead. To the tune to over 3 billion in losses in the years since to top it off. Had they released constant updates to the Vita, including 4G model, and a full fledged phone model, perhapps, we would actually have some options in the mobile industry instead of the current dead end douply we have right now. And, we might have some actual mass market games coming to mobile, instead of the great but niche titles we have right now.
Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
