Sony's PlayStation Vita isn't a "very strong product," legendary Nintendo video games creator Shigeru Miyamoto has told EDGE magazine.

Asked what he thought of the handheld, Miyamoto said: "I think I really can't say."

However, he went go on to offer a rather damming critique.

"It's obviously a very hi-spec machine and you can do lots of things with it, but I don't really see the combination of software and hardware that really makes a very strong product," said Miyamoto. "But I can't really say"

He concluded: "I'm not looking at Vita as happy that it's not selling well, or scared that it would sell well - I'm not looking at Vita that way."

Dude, you gotta work on your paraphrasing.  The thing about quotes is, people will think that's what was actually said.  So, you gotta not do what you just did and mislead people.  That's IGN's job!

Vita games will allways be compared to PS3 games and that is the main problem of the Vita...


The problem is Vita allowing itself to be compared to PS3. Had there been enough quality games meant for handhelds to begin with, this wouldn't have been a problem.

Never blame the consumer.


I'm just laughing at all the people who kept saying before release that Vita's graphics were as good as PS3.  It's not even close.

NSanity didn't write it, he copy-pasted it from videogamer.com.

what he should have said

"the Vita is new to the market" at least that would have made sense, and what so funny is I asked myself compared to what and thought of 3DS which made me laugh hysterically

He used the mis-leading quote from the first paragraph and put it as the topic thread.  Could have handled it a little better, don't you think?

Goku wasn't a very strong fighter. Then, he went Super Saiyan.


I need to watch that whole thing...are there versions of continuous 1 hour or so episodes?

OT: Sure, a Nintendo guy says a Sony product is not strong. What else is new. (I didn't know what to say really, good hardware, needs MH4).

He is saying what most would agree on, hardware is good, but needs software.
