OLED switched to LCD? How does that even make sense?
to save money....sony is bleeding cash left and right on the vita.
So why not just scrap the Vita and concentrate on keeping the PS4 on top? The whole Vita project has been a money pit for them.
they did well with the psp....maybe turned more profit than the ps3.
you can imagine how stubborn they will be to let go of the handheld market....pc business was garbage for years before they sold that.
I don't think they should quite on the vita. It's a great handheld. It just needs more original games. Getting the Vita Tales games is a good start too. I just don't think they should get rid of the OLED display, as thats one of the major reasons I love the vita. While I have mine, I'm afraid if it stops working one day I will be stuck getting a LCD model as a replacement.
Sony Vaio laptops weren't necessarily bad, they are built well, just for the cost of their higher end ones you could get an Alienware or Sager 17" laptop for the same cost, and both would have beefier CPU's and GPU's and both had better color gamut screens. Even their lower classed notebooks were outclassed by Dell, HP and Asus at the same price. People like to claim Alienware and Sager are overpriced, Sony was even more overpriced for what you got.
I personally see Sony maybe becoming just a Video Game company like Nintendo. Their HDTV's are outclassed by Panasonic and Samsung, the walkman has been replaced by the ipod, their stereo systems while good, again are outclassed by brands like Yamaha and Onkyo yet all their products carry a premium price.
Sony's problem is 1st party software and the fact they let third parties keep their games exclusive to japan for years if not forever. I think hardware wise the Vita spanks the 3DS, I prefer the Vita, but games wise it honestly has become my retro Persona and Final Fantasy Machine and thats about it and the few games that come with both the PS3 and Vita versions. That is a really good idea that I like.
The reason the 3ds sells better is because of the games, it's that simple, Nintendo has a great 1st party lineup and even a good amount of 3rd party support. Which is funny, Nintendo can get 3rd party support on it's handheld line but struggles with its main console line. I will never understand that really other than the PS4 and XB1 are outselling it.
