All handhelds are overpriced, console prices for crap graphics and how long do the batteries last?X360PS3AMD05

Where I live your looking at paying around $450 for a Vita, with that kind money you can buy a 3DS and 5 full priced game or a PS3 and Xbox altogether.

To me the vita is just plain irrelevent. I already have an ipad that keeps me entertained on the go: games, web surfing, music, reading, apps, etc. There is no point for the vita in my world.

Then you obviously don't want high quality portable games. I have an iPad and the games are like flash games, they're gimmicky and fun for wasting time. They don't have deep storylines and production values that match consoles.

We don't play iPad games for the incredible graphics and engorssing storylines, for hours on end. We play them because they cost £0.69 and kill time while we're waiting for a bus.

If you were seriously into games, you wouldn't say that.

Weren't people saying that i could be as high as $300-$350 before it was shown at E3? Then SONY decides to take a blow and sell it at $250... and still people are complaining? ...poor people...

But when someone can get a xbox 360 for 199$, with a near infinite game library and behemoth games like Witcher 2, Skyrim, Mass Effect 3, Fable, Halo, Dark SOuls etc, it is rather hard to pay 250$ for a new on the market handheld that has a tiny game library and no BC with PSP UMDs

It's not overpriced, if I remember the PSP costed 250€ here in Portugal on release date.

Fair enough, I thought you said you game on the iPad, in which case you do play portable games which would be better on the Vita.
