| aviggo77 said: vita people, why did you bought the vita?(what are some advantages of it over 3ds xl and the ios devices?) |
I bought it because there were some games that interested me... Gravity Rush at first... and because the probability of ports from PS3, specially fighting games.. I like fighting games on portables.. and until now is all good...
Advantages, well:
-over iOS better games overall and better control (Without a peripherical)...
-over 3DS I could say the control and is easier to hold (some games on 3DS like Kid icarus are HELL for your hands), don't need a peripherical to get a second stick and this VERY important.. and the obvious graphics.
-A lot of jRPG from PSP and exclusives for PSVita coming from Japan, if you love this genre this is your handheld.
-Others things like a variety of apps and such, but nothing that couldn't be added to eShop later (like YT app recently)...
-Another advantage is PLUS, this service is really great, free games, huge disccounts and Cloud saving service... if You go digital, PLUS is a great helper...
But it have its disadvantages:
-Like the price of the Memory cards, Sony screwed with this, seriously.
-There's not a lot of western third party supporting it, so if You don't like japanese stuff so much, Vita is not for You. -
-Being almost all games coming from Japan, wedepend on localization to see games, until is all good with some surprises and SONY promised to work to beter this.
-Not variety of colors and design available, not a deal breaker but seriorusly I envy the variety of Vitas on Japan, limited edition and colors... and Nintendo know well that a variety of colors could atract different people, SCEA doesn't -,-
If you're thinking to buy a Vita, the Walking Dead bundle comes with a 4gb memory card and the game. On black Friday was at 175$ and with tree digital games more.. Add at least a 8gb MC (20$) or a 16gb (at 40$) and a plus membership and You'll have from the Go some good games to play... this month will be added Sonic Sega Rally and still is Soul Sacriificie, Wipeout2048, uncharted and gravity rush.
