@Bigspleen It is expensive. 3DS is $170, PS3 is the price, and there are hidden costs,such as the memory cards, that add to the set price. And there's AT&T for the 3G...

why are you going around just spreading negative comments in Vita Threads?

if i was doing this in Nintendo threads i would have been banned.

@Bigspleen You can lead a gamer to the Vita, but you can't make him buy it. No matter how high tech something is doesn't matter. If that's true then PS3 would have sold a lot beter than it did when it first launched.

And 3DS is gaming handheld like Playstation Vita, probably not as powerful, but it is still well liked by many for its games and features.

If you were doing the same in Nintendo threads, you wouldn't get banned. This is just an old myth. Nowadays even moreso, because nobody on the current mod team would pick Nintendo as his prefered console manufacturer.


wise words, wise wise words Rol

The ps3 was expensive, vita is not, big difference. Vita also has a much better laucnh for games.  Ps3 outsold 360 despite its price tag in the same time on the market BTW.  250 is a sall amount most families spend more a pay period on useless crap like takeout. When you oen a house car, have a job you make 250 in 1-2 days.

 

I bet you own an ipod yet you say vita is expensive? Why the double standard with apple products?

I'm typing on mine right now so yes. It's truly amazing and you should get it, just depends on if you have the money now or later.


Well, I for one don't want to make the 3DS mistake once again. I bought it before any great game was released and later they cut 80$ of its price...

 

Even if I probably won't save as much as 80 bucks I'd welcome any price cut since I don't want any particular launch game anyways.


The vita launch is quite good unlike the 3ds.

I didn't import the third GBA game either. There's a point where I have to draw the line.


not going to lie... kinda dissapointed

@Bigspleen I hate Apple and their expensive products. I never used an ipod before, but I have tried another devices. I didn't much of them. I don't see how people can consider mobile gaming a real thing against handheld gaming.
