Stuff like this is like more encouragement for Sony to do better.

@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?

 A price cut will definitely give it a boost. What it really needs is big games though.

Yes, 3DS is really hurting the Vita. Belive it or not, they are competitors. Add to that smartphones and the market for the Vita is very small.

That journalist is bad and should feel bad, talk about taking Shiggy's quote out of context.

How is it bad? Is it something in the link? The OP seems to be perfectly fine.


In the entirety of the interview he admits to the 3DS' weak launch and lack of games for an extended period of time. The manner in which the journalist has placed that quote basically turns all that on its head and makes Miyamoto seem like a spiteful individual.

Would you like to exchange 3DS friend codes with me so that we can play mario kart 7 together? It's a lot of fun.

Nice Catch, was wondering if anyone would get that wonderfully terrible double meaning.  

Would make for one "Very Strong Product", Super Saiyan and All.

 According to who? Goku won a tournament that proved he was the strongest fighter on earth and saved the eartn several times before he became a Super Saiyan. 



 Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move,  and Kinect.

No doubt. I'm down for character-specific faceplates on launch with a tasteful golden stripe along the bottom (or something).
