Vita was designed with Remote Play in mind. On the same home connection, there shouldn't be much lag at all. That's what the previews are saying as well.

Still, I am more thinking along the lines of having menus/gadgets/additional stuff on the smart devices, like it is in most WiiU games that use the pad anyway. Then PS4/PS3 + PS Vita/Vita TV will be able to do the game streaming almost flawlessly and then more than the U pad (because you can use it much further away)

Remote play and mirrored/simultaneous play are not the same thing.

The lag discussed in remote play is playing the game wholly on Vita as its streamed from cloud.

It is not the same thing as playing the game on both the ps4/vita at the same time with specific inter-gameplay between them.

Remote play and gaikai are not the same thing.

Remote play is streaming directly from the PS4, usually locally without the internet. Gaikai is streaming from the cloud.

I guess games like Mario Chase from NintendoLand can be replicated with a Vita or even online mulitplayer. Some may have said Wario Ware with it's "Win Lose or Draw" styled games or that game where you take pics of particular people. I think the Vita and PS3 could pull that off. I have a Vita and it has pretty good motion controls. If Sony designed games that use the controls the way the Wii U uses the controller, it might be an issue. I just don't see many Vita games doing that.

The Wii U controller made some games better--my favorite example is my favorite game, Batman Arkham City. I think the games are coming, though.



I will say this, though. Wii U has games that let you view different aspects on the screen or off screen by moving the controller. No tablet to my knowledge can work in tandem with Xbox 360 to do the same. The only devices that pull of that Wii U trick (again, to my knowledge) is the combination of Playstion and Vita. Perhaps the NFC ability built in to the Wii U for games like Skylanders (it can read action figures) or something.



Yes, a lot of these games could be done on the other systems with extra devices. But not for $299.99.



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

Read the whole OP people. Specifically the *** part. Maybe I should change the title to "Games only possible with the asymmetric TV-gamepad vision at the core of the Wii U experience and available on other less focused setups."

Show me a game where Vita is playing a game simultaneously as PS4 (or even PS3) in a manner which is the same as Wii U. 

Show me COD where 2nd player in room is on Vita and other is playing on controller with no split screen.

Show me a FIFA where you can instantly in game draw your route on Vita and it happens in game.

Show me ANY game where you do something on Vita and its intregal to PS3 or even PS4 demos.

I have yet to see that or even a hint of it in demos or statements from MSony. Show me that then this thread has even a tiny amount of merit.

This entire thread is bullocks and what ifs just based on some generic remote play / play away from tv type system. I have yet to see anything that resembles Wii U.



Actually, there's something that the Wii U can do that the other consoles clearly cannot. Some people are forgetting that the Wii U gamepad has more than a gyroscope and touch screen. It also has the infrared sensor on it.

Are you talking about the NFC thing? Has that been used?

Vita.  Has console controls on it.  Four hands not required.

Were you also one of those hypocrites who slammed Crystal Chronicles for requiring a GBA to play in multiplayer?

Speaking of Crystal Chronicles... thinking about that game makes me feel nostalgic.  I didn't even know what kind of game it was when I got it.  I actually only played the game multiplayer, didn't even try to go single player.

I'm talking about the sensor bar at top.  You can use a wii mote on the gamepad.
