Forums - Sony - PS Vita: Is Sony’s Change An Admission of Defeat?

Jizz_Beard_thePirate on 01 July 2014

Sony is a company thats difficult for me to understand... PsVita is a Sony product, its Sony's job to support it and make sure its customers gets the games they want so that they will be happy... Sure, its not selling well but come on, this is getting ridicules... If its your product, you should be making the fans happy, not some other company... Like, I am glad that Sony has such great third party relationships or else this would be much worse... I just hope Sony goes back to the Vita before its too late

One way is to discuss how Sony is directly responsible for the failure of the system. 

I can definitely concur with that sentiment.  I feel as a publisher Sony did a horrible job with Vita.  

Uncharted: Golden Abyss launched 3 months after UC3. In Japan they launched 48 days apart.  Vita version lacked multiplayer
Killzone: Mercenary launched 2 months before Shadow Fall and a few days before GTA 5. 
AssCreed Liberation launched the same day as AC3 did. 
Declassified launched the same day BLOPS 2 did. Sony rushed and gave the game to a sub par developer with too many projects.
Tearaway launhed a week after PS4 week of X1. 

Way to overshadow anything they did do for the platform.

tl;dr but whats wrong with transistor? I haven't read a review about it is it bad?

Doesn't matter how good a game is. If it doesn't have broad appeal it won't sell thus the hardware that the software is on won't sell.

The stance on the Vita makes no sense.

If smaller 3rd parties can make Vita games a profit (And from what a good bit of them say, Vita's crowd buys the fuck outta games) why cant Sony? It makes no sense.

I will just continue to enjoy my 3rd party JRPGs that keep coming on the Vita and to tell with Sony FP.

The Vita is pretty much dead, but atleast they do something with it. Better than just ignoring it.

i think sony is wise jumping ship from the vita. i really believe there is a limited future for dedicated handheld devices.

The first step to solving a problem, is admitting it exists.

They supported it, people didn't buy it. Not surprising they'd reduce support.
