And with many rumors of a new LOZ game, Donkey Kong or even Kirby on the 3DS next year? Luigi's mansion and Animal Crossing are on the way everwhere else this year too. Nintendo's given us no reason to buy a vita.



lol,are you kidding

people who want to buy a vita surely don't care about games like kirby,animal crossing or luigis mansion(for sure the weakest of all nintendo ip's i've ever played)

This is my issue with Vita as well. There's nothing on the console that appeals to me that I cannot play in better form on the PS3 I already own.

I own a Vita, and I'm interested in all of those games.

Are you implying that's the only reason people bought the PSP? 

He's not far off with that statement PSP was a haven for piracy and emulation, people were buying it and then using it to play roms on the go, not the only reason but it certainly was the main one for many people.

From my personal experience at least in Greece, every single person I know who has/had a psp played psp pirated games and not a single one bothered with Roms (anecdotal evidence, I know). They only did on their pcs. Some psp games offered the best graphics on a portable console. And why woulnd't people who wanted to play Mario get a ds and use emulators on that instead?

I find Seth's argument absurd. There's simply no evidence to support that argument. The numbers of pirated psp games show that there sure as hell was interest in the psp games. Roms are only for a niche and 75m are definitely not a niche.

I owned a PSP and followed it's progress since it's launch and can say he's not far off, the first two and half years of the PSP was barren the Vita now has more games then what the PSP had that's what's ironic, I can still remember the popularity of the SNES emulator and several people at college playing the likes of Chrono Trigger, SMRPG and so on, on Ebay people where selling roms on disc with the software for emulation on PSP, PS1 games like FFVII were even running on the PSP long before Sony did it themselves. Piracy became more rampant from the PSP's 3rd year onward when it started to get more games and a steady library began forming, where do you think the tools for pirating PSP games originated from? The homebrew scene for it originally opened the PSP up for roms and pirates hijacked the software to run PSP games later on.

Roms may not sell the PSP to 75m people but believe me it had an impact early in the PSP's life, many early adopters were using emus and for a fair amount of time as well because the wasn't that much to pirate back then.

So, you can't use emulators on a nds?
