I wouldn't underestimate Vita.

A single franchise (Monster Hunter) was responsible for the PSP rebirth in Japan.

Also a a single franchise (Call of Duty) was responsible for the HD consoles rebirth in US.

Vita just need the right game at the right time.

Whut? Rebirth? 

Just look at sales, Call of Duty games were the biggest system sellers of the HD console. Before CoD became a social phenomenon, Wii was outselling both combined.

The sucess of CoD games directly increased not only HD console sales, but created a wave of clones games traying to re-edit its sucess which incresed the sales of HD consoles as well.

Can you imagine how PS360 sales would performe in last couple of years without call of duty games?

You know you that might have had something to do with it. There's no way to know for sure though. If COD didn't take off, something else would have.

We are going way off-topic now,  this discussion alone deserves its own thread.

It would be cool to read what other members of this site think about the importance of CoD games for the HD twins =)



I don't understand why this is being taken as a serious suggestion, or even managed to become a thread. Dropping the Vita? Essentially taking all the money they put into R&D, manufacturing, and advertising and just tossing it out the window? Indications show that the Vita is making money on each sale, software sales will always bring in profit, they are in the making their money back part of the Vita's lifecycle, something that will take 3 years. The Vita sold 1.1 million at launch, just a couple 100k less than other handheld devices. Sure their sales are slow now, but it's not dead slow. Numerous titles are about to be announced and we haven't even let the device see a holiday season.

This thread isn't meaningful. VGking, if you wanted to say hi you could have asked.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

@Chark What advertising? I haven't seen anything. Like one commerical and a few tiny online ads and that's it.

Tomorrow Capcom will reveal a secret game... maybe it's MH, who knows, and VGKing will have to run to the Syberian tundras to avoid the flak.

MUGEN will find him though!



No.

Drop the price when you can afford to, and pump out more AAA games.



It's just that simple.

Ps vita is the last Sony handheld



If Sony were to drop the price now their rep would be ruined or drop a hell lot. Mostly Kaz's since he has to come up with a way to award the early adopters and deal with the angry mob of parents, gamers, and analysts. Plus he has to answer one of the most important questions: Should we send in Kratos?
