Maybe they could release an Vita tablet. Two systems would create a larger total install base, making it more attractive for developers to make games for it.

That or they should come up with a system that would allow you to play any android game on it.


Sony already created a game device capable of playing any Android game. Xperia Play. It also bombed. Sony clearly had a fluke with the PSP and don't actually know how to make a handheld gaming device that appeals to the mass market.

Sorry when i said come up with a system i meant a way to play Android games on the Vita(i see the way i wrote it down it looks like i mean a whole new console). Or start an effort of porting all the big Android game to the Vita themselves. This would be a big boost to the Vita's library and there are alot of games that would be better playable with actual buttons.



I've thought about the idea of Vita adding Android Support. I think the whole idea of PSMobile was meant to be it got big enough to be Android, but under their control (whoops). But yeah, a dual boot Vita should be technically possible to also run Android. I'd also be inclined to chuck 4G component in at the same time and allow it to do calls/skype/onling gaming anywhere etc.

I don't think there'd be too much of a market for it though :(
