I agree. I mean, I got a vita around release? I dont remember. The technology was great. Considering it came out in 2012, the switch coming in 2017, I get it, no excuse. Game designers aren't working on system software. It should have been better than it is.

Too bad vita didn't go with 4g instead of 3g, and from what i remember, everyone was excited for the vita, until those memory card prices got revealed. Pretty sure that single handedly killed support for the thing.

Oh well. I think an even more powerful vita would make a perfect companion to a sony console. Maybe the Switch will lead sony to a 3rd handheld.

If I hadn't gotta a switch 100 dollars discounted, I still wouldn't own one. However, regardless of what the vita is, the only thing that really bothers me about the switch is that I cannot use the screen while it's connected to a TV. I wish something somewhere had been done differently to accommodate that. Maybe if the dock was more than what it was today.

Vita should not have had a 3G model or 4G model and just went with a Wifi. People booed Sony on stage when they revealed AT&T. I so remember it had some hype when it was still called NGP. I remember some people saying it will destroy 3DS in sales. I think even IGN said it would. They hype died around E3 when they showed the 3G model and the memory cards prices. Sadly Vita was DoA right then and there. Didn't help the launch ads were bad. Not as bad as PSP racist ones at least or a white guy rapping (badly)about wanting one..yeesh. Vita is so awesome but man Sony screwed it.

 

For those who don't remember
