 I know graphics are not everything but there comes a time where you have to look at the hardware and see what its maximum capability is. afterall thats why they released the wii U right?....which is still way underpowered compared to ps4/xb1


Hardware Specs~ Vita>>3DS

Software Sales ~ 3DS>>>>>>>>Vita

you dont get my point do you?

if vita had 5 amazing 3rd party games which the 3ds couldnt handle, it would be finished. luckily for nintendo no-one is making those games despite vita's superior hardware.

with wii its a different case because its just not possible to put GTAV or BF4 on the wii....unless you want 99% same textures all around with no special effects, shadows and minimal animations....in otherwords not even a proper game. thats why it lost out.

anything the 3ds could do, the vita could do it better, its just that no-one does.

anything the ps360 can do, the wii cant do which is why no-one does.

I bet the Vita cant do stereoscopic 3D better than the 3DS.

at the expense of having a ridiculous battery life even when playing a game half as demanding as the vita.

I'm just passing through so don't mind me.  This is your discussion.  Just a pet peeve of mine.  I was debating a guy that claimed the Xbox 360 got its wireless adapter because Microsoft was copying Sony's PS3.  When I proved that the 360 had its wireless adapter at launch a year before the PS3, he attacked something else.  On a different occasion, I got into a discussion with a guy about the PS2 having issues.  He said "If the PS2 was defective, there would have been a class action lawsuit".  When I proved to him that there was a lawsuit, he instantly attacked some other aspect that was unrelated.  This happens all of the time where, when proven wrong, the loser of that particular indisputable point just can't say "Yeah, you were right about that.  Good point."

He got the best of you in that exchange.  He's not attacking the Vita's price or memory card or lack of sales.  You said the Vita could do anything better than the 3DS (and, for the most part, you're right) but he found one thing the 3DS does better because the Vita can't do it at all.  Yeah, he was right about that.  Good point. 

You'll get him next time.  Anyway, carry on.  Sorry for butting in.

PS3 is in 3rd place though.

Much as I loved The Last of Us, there are a large portion of people who think Super Mario Galaxy is the best game of this generation, but still this is a subjective argument.  Objectively, Super Mario Galaxy has sold more than 20 million copies, so that trumps TLOU.

No, it hasn't.

Doesn't matter (even though you're wrong) - as long as it finishes first.

Im not wrong.

Wii - 100.3 Million as of September

360 - 80 Million as of September

PS3 - 80 Million as of November

PS3 is still behind. It only just reached the 360 sales total of 2 Months ago. Right now, the PS3 is still in dead last 3rd place. It hasnt won the console war.

Possibly more impressive, or even best turnaround. Or most longevity... But "won"? No. It did not sell the most.

Wrong. As of the 30th of September, the 360 sold 79.4M units, not 80M.

Now, English isn't my first language but can you say "it did" when the action is still ongoing?

Yes, I can. And I just did. It's not reaching the Wii's 100 million units. 

 

Now watch your tone before I backhand you.
