I'll defend the PS Vita here and say that you can't fit a Wii U in your pocket.  It would be very strange to take a system that big (albeit small for a home console) around with you on a train.  At least a tablet device is thin (though not as fun as the Wii U).

I can't fit the Vita in my pocket either. Have you seen how big that thing is?

Well the PS Vita is much easier to fit in your pocket than a Wii U gamepad + console + all the cables.  Please don't pretend it's even close to the same thing lol.  Even carrying it in a bag it would take up nearly all the space.

The PS Vita will need to be "always-on" to be able to play PS4 games, I guess we'll just have to #DealWithIt.

Yes, it needs to be always online when its away from PS4 but it has its own Games to play even there is no PS4 and Internet, however Wii U tablet can't work without its Wii U. Mostly everyone who is working has internet in their Office to connect to their PS4 and play in Vita, but Wii U needs a desk and monitors in their office to use it.



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

We don't need to be always online when PS4 and Vita present in same building which needs only Local network to play the games. Can we do that with other consoles?

No because other consoles don't have a vita. But nobody knows what we will be able to do with the future of smartglass :)

This statement proves Sony still doesn't get the handheld Market and if they haven't grasped it by now they never will.

Yep, that's exactly what your boss wants you using their Wi-Fi for.  First time you get caught, he'll tell the IT department and get the Gaikai network firewalled.

Get back to work.

Never understimate Sony video game devices support and succes. 

PSP and PS3. Everyone thought they were dead, and look at them in the charts now. Ps vita will probably be a success.

PS vita will be a succes, but what is that? If it sells 30 million? Back in the day everybody knew the vita would destroy the 3ds. Look at it now.

But sony first brought it on the market to be a little ps3, and now a little ps4? LOL. So funny.

Sony must stick to consoles. Not to the handhelds. The handheld public is different.
