actually, he's most likely correct in that the Wii U is more powerful than PS3 and Vita combined, the cost is higher with PS3+Vita due to more parts, not that they'd be faster.

Verse every announced game on Wii U. Ya it's pretty obvious the Wii U will be supported much better than Vita/PS3, even if both have similar functionality. As for price wtf are people doing saying it is $300 verse $500? I highly, highly, highly doubt a person buying a Vita for cross functionality doesn't already own a PS3. It is $300 verse $250. |
Since Sony is claiming themselves to be in the perfect position (with their slim PS3) to snatch up any consumer who doesn't opt for a Wii U at launch, then yes the discussion is about purchasing a PS3 and Vita compared to a Wii U, and not just Vita by itself.
the move all over again?

Apples to oranges. Sony is talking about the casual market on PS3, nothing to do with Vita.
Anyway I found a great little article straight from the playstation website explaining PS3 and Vita interacting together. It includes all compatible games and explains the basics of cross-play, cross-goods, etc. http://uk.playstation.com/psvita/support/games/detail/linked513180/item513385/PS3-games-compatible-with-PS-Vita/

Vast majority of early adopters, or vast majority for the rest of the Vita's existence? From that perspective, either there will be no new PS3 owners for the rest of Vita's lifetime (not good for PS3 sales), or everyone who buys a Vita for the rest of it's lifespan will have already bought a PS3 within the last 5 years (not good news for Vita, i.e. you are automatically placing a 65 mil or less cap on Vita's lifetime sales). You do realize that you are saying that no future PS3 buyers would be potential Vita purchasers?
This debate still exists??? Was it ever a relevant comparison?
$300 > $500 anyday. And I doubt cross play is why people even buy a Vita. Cross play is just a gimmick Sony introduced to try to inject some sales into the thing.

What strange world of numbers do you live in? 300 is less than 500, not greater... ;)
