Playstation Vita thread

You guys think on 02/20, besides announcing the PS4 (no need for a different platform name, really), will Sony at least address the current state of Vita, and do a price cut (or include a 16GB memory card), there is no lack of good games coming up.

I think they'd be smart to do something. Maybe an early adopter promo like the 3DS had. But honestly, I bet they barely talk about the Vita. I don't think they know what they're doing with it.

I think I'll be pre ordering at least half a dozen Vita games this year. Maybe more when I see the Japanese release schedule.

3DS... Maybe I'll get one or two games. We shall see!

I'm waiting for the event before I grab one. I nearly bought one this last weekend but decided to hold off. If they don't mention anything, well that's a bit of a bummer.

I don't want to miss out on a price drop if one happens though. So the waiting game begins.

$200, a 2gb memory card, and a pack in game and I'd have one in my hands minutes later.

Why didn't you jump in on the black friday deals? I got the assassins creed bundle with sony smash bros and 3 months psn+ for $180.

I am loving my vita.

Because I didn't know I wanted one in November.

I wanted one when it first came out, my interest died down, and now it's back up again.

That's a pretty sweet deal you got there though.

Can't blame you though, as there is a no "Mush-Have" game that appeals to everyone for the Vita... I mean cynics are right when they mention the best Vita games are ports/transplants from other platforms (Uncharted, LBP, P4 Golden, Masamune...).

I am hoping that Soul Sacrifice (a Keiji Inafune product) and Terraway could change the perception of the Vita.

I still don't get this talk. Aren't pretty much all the top 3DS games ALSO ports/transplants from other platforms? Granted, a lot of them are first party Nintendo and thus will certainly sell.

Agreed. To me, this is the whole point of a handheld. I, for one, am not the type to play my handheld at home, I play it in the car or at the in-laws. So taking a series I love (Uncharted) and making it portable? Awesome! Or in the case of Persona 4 Golden, taking a game that I simply wouldn't play at home and making it portable makes it more palatable. I want them to do this with more games like Final Fantasy XII.

See, I play my handheld when I travel to visit my family, but I do the majority on my couch at home, with old episodes of various TV shows in the background. And I've always played handhelds this way, ever since our first Game Boy. And with the DS (and to a lesser extent, the PSP) there were so many amazing RPGs I got a lot of mileage out of my little handheld.
