Vita is somethign else. Sony obviously doesn't understand the portable market. The home console market they do understand. In fact, I'm sure they wont' repeat the 1-year headstart or the huge price difference. Those 2 alone really killed them this gen, and without those 2 mistakes they have a chance to be market leader. |
I don't see why Vita is something different. It is another gaming system made by Sony. I thought they would learn to not launch a high-priced powerful system without an innovative selling point. Yet, they still launched it and a year late. They pulled a PS3 with the Vita. With that said, I agree that the Orbis won't launch late this time. (compared to Durango) However, I do disagree about the price. Sony doesn't see the huge price or advanced tech as a mistake like us consumers do. Sony seems to like their 10-year cycles and in order to do this, you need to have a pretty powerful future-proof system. I could be wrong, but I personally see Sony launching at a high price point and with powerful tech again despite the PS3 & Vita launches. They will be banking on turning things around later in the Gen just like the PS3 did. I still think they expect PS3 to sell the most for this Gen actually. It isn't really a bad plan but more risky.
