the hardware itself was beautiful tho especially the first model
Crazy that they started with OLED and downgraded
Vita came out when smartphones were the hottest thing to talk about so kids definitely chose the phone
also the games were kinda mid for the most part
oh wow I get to play s***ty versions of uncharted and AC on the go!!!!
yep compared to games like MK7 and 3D World around that same time, higher quality and the next main series games
Because Reggie Fils-Aime put a stop to it
Tbh, I could probably count on one hand the amount of times I've seen the Vita in person, even during the era when it had some semblance of popularity
A Vita 2 would give Nintendo a run for their money
All games fully on the cartridge + normal / non-proprietary memory cards, Sony could easily have Nintendo’s success
They wouldn’t do it tho cus Sony won’t scale back their games to make them run on a handheld
Plus look at Nintendo, when they combined the console + handheld division, they made way less games in the Switch era compared to DS / Wii & 3DS / WiiU era
Price + expensive proprietary memory cards + quick drop of support from Sony / 1st party once the PS4 took off and started selling
Bruh the fact you ain’t need no wifi and you could run jawns like GTA, NBA LIVE AND 2k, WWE, midnight club WAS INSANE FOR THAT ERA Bro I done remember playing gta vice city stories in the car on a 15 hr drive to NY. Why they stopped making hand held console like the PSP YALL
WHY WAS THE VITA A FLOP???
…you not black huh
nintendo ain’t have no gta type beat tho?
Chinatown Wars was a Nintendo exclusive and had the most brazen touch-screen d*** dealing imaginable. You literally rolled around with a suitcase full of heroin cocaine pills weed etc and became the master of narcotic supply and demand lol. I thought it was f***in crazy that it was on a Nintendo.
