Forums - Gaming - PS Vita isn't a 'very strong product', claims Miyamoto

not funny tho. It's a cop-out. Look, it could be a factor, but the markets for the Vita and for the 3DS are so vastly different, that your argument borders lack of intelligence, no joke.

@VGKing Once again, we already know this. Does this mean Vita will also receive a price cut? I'm hope not since they'll lose a lot of money by doing it(already losted billions) and the bashing would be too severe cause it'll be faster than what Nintendo did. You can sell a product at a price if there are games willing to buy for it, but as of now there's not or not enough.

Though what is appealing is that the industry expected a lot of things from the system before it launched. Jack Tretton expected it to sell 500k in three weeks. Pachter predicted that the Vita's first three months would outsell the 3DS' first three months. Maybe these aren't good examples depending on the person, hell another guy said the Vita would be able to sell 12.4 million units if Sony does a price cut in it's first year. All I'm saying is that at the time during these systems launches, neither of them exactly hit everyone's desires(3DS actually had very good numbers at first, but failed in the long run, resulting price cut). But my main questions are were people expecting the Vita to sell less despite what the industry expected? Is it simply because they are two different handhelds made by different company? Is the 3DS damaging the Vita that much? Was Sony expecting the Vita to sell like this?

So, what are you saying?  That the Vita got to the market too late and now it's doomed because the competition is much more intense?  Theres no reason for it to exist because the competition is already doing everything that we want the Vita to do?  That sucks.

Okay guys.  Logic56 called it.  We can end the thread, now.

I....I just....really.

vgchartz: herp derp the 3ds sold moar than the vita during the same time frame, derp derp

logic: because it had no competition, that makes selling more much easier

vgchartz: so you are naow saying vita are doomed it are not need to exizt derp

logic: no, just stating why the 3ds sold more in the same time frame

vgchartz: herp *whatever the next response is* derp

 

my expectations of intelligent well thought out post from most of this sites users is dropping faster than Sony's stock and market value, will it rebound? only time will tell...

unless you were joking in which case....ha ha ha?

Yeah, I wasn't 100% serious.  I just know that you are very passionate about the Vita so you're kinda an easy target.  If I wanted to be really make you flip out......but I don't.  I'm calling it a night.  In the end, it's just video games.  The Gamecube sold probably 20 million or something in 5 years, meanwhile the PS2 destroyed the sales of the Gamecube and Xbox combined.  That didn't stop the 'Cube from being home to some of my favorite games of all time and that didn't stop me from buying somewhere between 50-75 games for it.  No matter what happens, good games will come to the Vita.  That's all that matters to me.  One way or another, I'll get my money's worth.

Gotta go to worka 4am  in the morning.  I'll have my Vita (and 3DS) right there with me to get me through the day.  Peace out, bro.

It's not 3DS year 2 versus Vita year 1. I hope I didn't get you wrong it was so unclear...

remember the "you no use or understand simple logic?"

in what world is the Vita past it's first year? all I've been saying for the past few weeks is it just came out, hell my first post in this thread was "new to the market"

clearly I don't have the problem nor am I illogical, you people just don't fucking read, nor are most of you capable of understanding any of it, so you ignore, only to continue to post, which gets frustratingly annoying, especially when you only to end up repeating what I said in the first place



^Wow, get glasses. I pasted the pics from Kowen for you. Geez, nuff said, you need help.



From a sales perspective, he's not wrong. It's no secret the Vita's having a rough year, a trend that could cut its life short if it continues. Superchunk even has a thread postulating that the Vita might have been better off if it was released as a cell phone line.

However, I guarantee you Sony won't give up without a fight. It will try its hardest to make and attract the best games it can for the platform, with the Vita likely to dominate their E3 focus. So from a gamer's perspective, I'm sure it will be fine.
