| Cerebralbore101 said: Nobody should care about devs not being warned about the Vita store closing. It's a failed handheld that was supported for nearly ten years. Anybody still developing for it was asking for financial ruin either way. It's not like they were going to sell a ton of copies of their game on Vita. Might as well complain about people who make bonfires with their own money getting robbed. |
There were still over 50 Vita releases last year and a few releases this year:

But I agree, a warning to all registered Vita-developers would probably have hurt more than helped.
The closing of the store front would have leaked months ago from one of these developers... without the context that redownloads of bought content or PS+ content will still be possible.
That would have lead to wild speculations and fearmongering: "all your digital content will go away in a few months!"
