Apparently it worked out for the PS3. All it took was a 12-pack of beer everyday by Jack Tretton and his butt-buddy.

please provide reasoning then
Wii had a radical new approach to gaming. Vita looks to be the same old PSP vs DS specs all over again
Wii had a price advantage. Vita does not
Wii appealed to casuals, a crowd more vast then the core market. Vita caters to the core more then anything.

I think the race will be very close either way, but 3DS should edge out the Vita, provided Nintendo keeps the price lower than it, and it follows through on some of the strong type of games that helped sell the DS, like a (true) 2D Mario game. Focusing on obscure niche titles like Luigi's Mansion 2 and Kid Icarus is not going to do much.
Plus, you've got the head start of the 3DS that is growing larger by the day, moreso now that it has recieved a drastic price cut. Nintendo definitly has their work cut out for them this gen though in terms of topping their competition, probably more than they ever had in their long reign of handheld dominance.
thats what people said when psp launched, but over time due to price and constant kiddy games the ds took off, i see 3ds doing exactly the same albiet not as big as ds
...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

| RolStoppable said: EA is betting against Nintendo. Well, that's business as usual. The PS Vita is close enough to PS3/360 specs to enable easy ports. The 3DS could get Wii ports in theory, but even EA (S)ports knows that bad ports of terrible games won't sell, so there's no real reason for them to bother. In the end EA won't really matter. They never did on handhelds. I have yet to hear a PSP owner talk highly about EA's games. |
We don't see it on forums but both those EA sports games and stuff like movie tie-ins tends to rank quite high in PSP charts.
Plus this time Vita will be getting full ports with ps3/psv cross-gaming if everything works as planned and we have this small thing called Euro 2012 next year - special edition PSV with Fifa Euro could do nicely in EU.
PROUD MEMBER OF THE PSP RPG FAN CLUB
In 2006, after the DS's success was unquestionable, EA finally started to shift resources away from the struggling PSP and EA's CEO Said ...
"There's no doubt that EA has historically bet more on PSP. I think we were excited by the technology, but the consumers have proven that actually what they want is fun. We must never forget that what we need to focus on is fun and so EA is putting more effort behind DS games - and creative ones that really take advantage of the hardware."
