OPINION. I'll take Uncharted over Mario any day. I am a Sony fan after all.

"And if you own neither a PS3 or PSV yet, the PS3 is obviously by far the better choice."

OPINION. Some people prefer to play on a portable.(Japanese gamers especially). Some people don't have an HDTV and some people don't want to share their console. PSV is the perfect personal entertainment system Great alternative to PS3 once it gets more games.

"Additionally, pretty much all of the currently highly successful Western IPs are better suited to the big screen as well, so the same problem applies."
OPINION! This is what the PSV is trying to change. They are trying to replicate that home console experience on a portable.

How is it opinion that Mario is a stronger franchise than Uncharted? Stronger is used to refer to sales, and is consequently not opinion. You might prefer uncharted, but you are statistically insignificant. Very few people in this world will buy a console for Uncharted, many will for Mario.

Now THAT is opinion

No, that is what the PSP tried to change, and failed.

To add to this Uncharted talk. 28.8% of Vita owners have Uncharted Golden Abyss, but only 6.4% of PS3 owners have Uncharted 3.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

The fallacy here is that you're assuming anyone not liking it hated it.

Line up game. With like 1.5m sales it's a lot easier to get high attachment ratio whereas UC3 has been released much later in it's life cycle, so to get 28% it would need to do about 18m(cba to get the calculator), which is more than any game ever sold on any HD console.

% doesn't mean shit at this stage, and they are not really comparable.

Also wtf is this? Since when is Uncharted bigger than Mario!?

I think you make a really good point that is just as applicable to Rol's back and forth about Uncharted. I mean really? Should we start comparing Mario 3D land and New Super Mario Bros? Very similar points can be made.

I think it would be more comparable to 3d marios like the galaxy games.2d marios are on another level and sub genre.

I guess, but still the same effect. To discredit Uncharted Golden Abyss for what its sold at this stage of the game is just not right, hopefully it has legs but the number of sales its racked up in such a small user base is pretty nice.

*FunFact* I played, and beat, New Super Mario Bros and HATED IT. The entire time through. It was incredibly easy but that's not my issue...it was a tutorail throughout the ENTIRE GAME. Why does it need to remind me how to access a mushroom when I'm in the last world? Because it reminds you ever time you get one. And dear god if you don't move your character for half a second before it gives you the animation as to how to use your propeller hat you've been using the whole game! Playing that game filled me with sadness as well...about the same sadness as FF XIII did.
