I'm talking about 3DS' successor :)

And yeah, there's no point Sony doing another handheld, but Nintendo might just have enough of a handheld market left to make one viable and in Japan at least, with handheld having the biggest market share, I'm sure the likes of Capcom would be quite happy with more power than the 3DS has, but also want the userbase it comes with.

The Japanese developers don't bother the same with Vita because the userbase is still too small to make it worth sinking any budget in. But also the games it's been getting, have either been PS3 cross format, or PSP cross format, very few have actually been made purely with Vita hardware in mind. I think that's why Danganronpa another story, Senran Kagura etc all look far better than most Vita games tend to do.

lol, so VGChartz won't add them? :o 

The way I look at controls when playing games is this. What has worked for me in the past. Dodging and rolling on X I had no problem with in SS, I'm use to sprint on R because of Ragnarok, Square and Triangle are honestly the most confortable attack buttons in these kinda games imo. L has to be Aim and lock on if not a D-Pad button. Which leaves O for thorn. Which works perfectly since the thorn doesn't need as much control and it makes the Sprint abilities alot more accessable than in the tutorial, I was like hell no when I saw the quick back and forth dodge and I had to cripple my hand to do it lol. I feel comfortable, I couldn't use marksman because I need to be able to reach the buttons while sprinting because sprint triangle is jump with the spear and it's apart of my fighting style. But I'd hate having the thorn button shifting back and forth lol

I wonder about that. I honestly believe that one of the reasons handhelds are so popular there is because games are so cheap to develop for. Take that away, and that's one less advantage it has.

A 2D Metroid would be amazing, but I have the feeling Nintendo is done with those. Maybe Yokai Watch will do the trick. Or Project S.T.E.A.M., which looks pretty fun even though the art style is nowhere near as cool as I'd hoped. (In my head I was picturing something like Gravity Rush or Valkyria Chronicles rather than... that.)

Sadly, the kind of stuff I've always liked best on Nintendo handhelds is drying up as the little Japanese devs pack it up and move to mobile. Which wouldn't be so bad if they made the same kinds of games there, but alas, they're just churning out typical mobile garbage for the most part.

Isn't it more developers are chasing the userbase? The Japanese have clearly shown their preference towards handheld systems as opposed to home consoles in recent years.

We'll have to see I guess. 

So will VGChartz add the PS TV numbers or not?
