And by the time the Vita launches everyone will clearly see that the Vita is the more powerful and better system and they will sell the disaster that is the 3DS and trade it in for a Vita....

[QUOTE="darth-pyschosis"][QUOTE="FlamesOfGrey"] From what I hear the 3DS is already hacked. I'm not sure if that's true but the DS was easier to hack then the PSP.FlamesOfGrey

People are going to argue and say the psp isn't dead outside of japan, that its selling. Well look at it like this. The 3ds at some point is thought of as being a failure (by the none gaming media) in the months it was released and after, and it was still outselling the psp which already has established a large verity of games.

I was thinking that it couldn't be software, because japanese games are being released outside of japan on the psp till this day. My question is why is the psp dead outside of japan? i mean its a decent handheld, but something prevented it from reaching higher levels of success. For retrospect, the old school outdated nintendo ds still actually sells pretty well. With the price drop of the 3ds, it looks as if its going to replace the dying original Ds models.

Anyway, how is vita going to fix the lack of intrest of the psp in the west? I mean surly the name change and the extra analog isn't going to fix the problems the psp had (what ever that may be)

Vita seems to not have any system sellers on the system, that will cause people to run out and buy one. i assume the hardware may be the selling points of the unit.

[QUOTE="darth-pyschosis"]Piracy. The Vita is doing nothing to curb this so far. Nintendo apparently has stopped all piracy on the 3DS for 3DS software. If the Vita can't do the same, which platform do you think devs will prefer in 2013/2014? The PSP has sold 2-5 million units the last few years in EU and NA. That's bad. That's lke 1/2 of the PS3/360, that's like 1/3 or 1/4 the DS and Wii in some years. FlamesOfGrey

Vita has no system seller? Guess it depends on what you like oO Some of my fav. franchises are launch titles or close to launch like Disgaea 3, Katamari (iirc), Uncharted and dynasty warriors oO

Kiddy games perhaps?

3DS will sell cos of all the kids buying em and wanting em.

Quality > Quantity

Golden rule that the TC is amissing.

The Vita will do fine and will do BETTER for the gaming industry than the 3DS will.

The games are subjective, I enjoyed FF7:Crisis Core more so than any DS game.

On a side note...
Do numbers matter, or the experience matter?

With the power jammed packed in the Vita, who knows what developers will make. Either way, its a step forward in technology, not backwards.

With Luigi's Mansion, Pokemon, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy, Monster Hunter 4, on the way as well. Not to mention $80 cheaper and without proprietary memory costs. Best of luck to the Vita.
