Haven't seen anything like this on the forums yet so I thought I would give it a shot. The vita has been out for almost 3 years (in the states anyway) and I think nows a good time to check on how this little guy is doing. When it first came out it was advertised as being basically a portable ps3 and you being able to play whatever ps3 game you have on the go using remote play. But reality is far different and it's none of those things for better or worse. What it is though in my experience with it is a pretty damn good handheld for more quirky games like rpgs and visual novels with the occasional bit of genius like terraway thrown in...kinda like what the PSP was last gen. Overall it's probably never going to get the same appeal as say the 3ds, but it has its own charm and is definitely has its own unique identity even if it was not what Sony envisioned. Sorry if this post is too long I'm just really interested in what the future is gonna be like for the vita. |

I thought it was long it enough, just wanted to get the ball rolling so I didn't want to drag it on. Do you own the first one second version? One thing I like about the slim is that you can use any mini USB charger and it will work just fine. |

I loved my Vita when I first got it, and absolutely love Gravity Rush. I sold mine but there's a good chance I'll pick up a Vita tv when the sequel eventually comes out. There's just not enough support for the system compared to the competition and I'm not really into those anime/Japanese games. |

I like mine, I just haven't had enough chances to sit and play it. Right now MGS is in it, since I'm on a metal gear kick right now. Haven't tried Gravity Rush yet, I'm not really digging the walking dead, but I did DL wipeout, that seems kinda fun so far |

Yes, it was on PS Plus for a good amount of time. I thought Uncharted was pretty solid too (also on PS Plus) just some of the touch controls were dumb as hell. |

the only thing I have a problem with the vita like probably most people I hate how much those memory card are I only have a 4gb and I have PS Plus. And Yes I know I can delete what I have on the card and just download it again when I want but...I am always doing that it gets annoying. Edited by MrTechnoSqueek, Jan 17 2015, 08:57 AM.

I don't own a Vita yet, but I intend to buy one in the near future. The system gets a lot of flack for not having enough games, being overpriced, and an "epic fail" as some put it. I think the root of the problem is Sony, specifically with their promotion (or lack thereof) and support. The Vita has a lot of potential, especially with the advanced technology (for a handheld) and a solid library of action and RPG games. Unfortunately, this is undermined by a minimal retail presence, little media support and Sony keeping the price above what Nintendo is charging for the 3DS. My guess is that Sony has been putting all their money into building up the PS4, which is arguably the only thing Sony is doing right these days. Check their latest financial report and you'll see what I mean. The Vita and Playstation TV have both been selling below expectations, and Sony is to blame for not making a push to increase sales. They seem content with letting it dwindle out, which is a shame. Still, the system itself is fine and I look forward to getting one. |
