[Quote="Forbes"] A Google search on the PS Vita yields hundreds of stories about Sonys dual-stick, powerhouse handhelds disappointing sales. Its too expensive, lacks a decent library of games and worst of all, its irrelevant since millions of consumers play games for free on mobile phones and tablets. Truth be told, I was thisclose to selling my PS Vita for the same reasons. But now it appears Sony is ready to lay a serious smack down on competitors (and whiny gamers) thanks to three brilliant moves pulled off this week. Price drop. High price might be the biggest bone of contention for many who have considered buying the PS Vita but have been holding off, waiting for an inevitable price drop. Between the device, proprietary memory card, games and accessories, the PS Vita aint cheap, thats for sure. But now that attractive bundles are available (Call of Duty: Black Ops and Assassins Creed: Liberation for $199 on Black Friday!) its time to pull the trigger. PlayStation Plus. The recent Firmware 2.0 update now means the generous PlayStation Plus program of the PS3 extends to the PS Vita. After the firmware update, I received my Instant Game Collection I was too cheap to buy the first time around: Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, wipEout 2048 and Jet Set Radio. Nice. Games. A handheld is only as good as the games it plays and the PS Vita is now firing on all cylinders. In addition to the aforementioned, theres Persona 4 Golden, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, Jetpack Joyride, Ragnarok Odyssey, a new Ratchet and Clank in January and Killzone: Mercenary to look forward to. Lets not forget about PlayStation One classics, hundreds of Minis and independent games like Retro City Rampage. Clearly, the PS Vita loves you. Now its time to love it back.

:lol: was that a joke article? cause that seriously felt like i was reading a cow's forum post here in SW. The vita will continue to fail as long as Sony keeps treating it like a crappy PS3 and not a handheld

Dont need it to crush anything, just do good enough to keep chugging along and getting games and keeping money flowing for Sony.

If it didn't have those memory cards and was $149.99, then yeah maybe. It's not even worth that with the lackluster line up of games imo though. At least my Nexus 7 and my HTC One S can do multiple things without any issues at all. Vita's browser is just lol.

ehhh they aren't going to make much profit like that. I know they did that with the PS3 but the idea is you actually make money off of it. Units solid won't mean much if you're not making money off f it. I'd argue making a new version of the vita keeping the general image of the vita but cheaper would be a better way for Sony to get out of this mess.

Sony won't crush anything. They need better advertising, a price drop on the system and memory cards along side ome more 3rd Party support. They're not like Nintendo. Sony can't just release a rehashed Mario game like New Super Mario Bros. 2 and get sales. They also don't have the brand name and history Nintendo does in the handheld market. Sony has to work and right now they are still focused on the PS3 and giving the PS Vita minor attention.

Delusional is the first word i thought of after reading that article. When you are doing worse than the Dreamcast, the only time the word, "Crush" and "PS Vita" should be used in the same sentence is to describe what Nintendo is doing to Sony.

Sony should stop treating it like a PS3 instead of a handheld like how they've been doing lately. That and do a price drop that adds a memory card in. If they are pricing it the same as the PS3 (maybe even more), then why bother with the vita and buy a PS3 instead?

Prices already went back to normal. And I just took a glance at the games, seems fine for the Vita. Price is only reason I see it not selling. But then again, who knows.

A price-drop for what? For you to make a thread about how desperate Sony is? Or how you didn't know the Vita was doing so bad that Sony had to do a price-cut? :roll:

Ah, my very own stalker is in this thread. How nice. :oops: FYI, a price cut is the best move for the system. The best thing a company can do to help a failing product is to acknowledge those mistakes and then address them head on, not put its fingers in its era and pretend that everything is all fine and rosy in the hopes the problem will go away. If Sony does cut the Vita's price, I'll be there, applauding them for such an obviously correct decision.

says the guy who doesn't own one. "hey I'll take that guys opinion as my own" I just bought BO2 on the Wii U and I have harder times getting people to ready up on the PS3 version, and the Wii U gameplay is solid

I curious about what the PS3/PS4 connectivity will do for the vita. Potentially, it could do a lot of the things that the wiiu does, and they claim that it can do much more because of the processors inside the vita (which the wiiu controller does not have). Imo, I doubt it simply because one of the biggest challenges that nintendo had when designing the wiiu was cutting down latency, which I doubt was much of a concern when designing the vita, and especially not the ps3. But, maybe the ps4 will do this

Maybe it just me, but I think MH, MK, AC, DQ, plus all those other third party tittles helped the 3DS sell, not just a "rehash" If sony didn't think third parties were just going to show up they would not be in this mess. They should have build up their first party on the psp.

A price drop for people like me and thousands of others who have interest in the system and the games it offers yet can't afford it at the price it's at right now considering the relatively lackluster line-up? Is that so hard to understand?

I think Vita is an excellent gaming handheld device. One that I would instantly buy had I not been so busy lately with work & having difficulties finishing the backlog of games I already own and love on my PC & consoles.

At this point in time with me losing all interest in the Vita, the only way I am buying one is if I can get one for about $150 as well as a 32Gb memory card for $50 or less and games that aren't just watered down console games. Until then, count me out cause my phone is more than good enough for my portable gaming.

If they make a bundle with their best vita game (P4G) along with a decent memory (8 at least) at a competitive price, it shall do well in the west.

Sony are idiots. Instead of letting a capable developer make COD: Declassified they handed it over to Nihilistic. They could have had a real system seller on their hands and they screwed it up.

Sony Vita is one of the best handheld ever created.

Its just a matter of time before people catch on.

I remember PS3 also had a slow start and now, its 2nd place with alot of gas left in its tank.

Sony are idiots. Instead of letting a capable developer make COD: Declassified they handed it over to Nihilistic. They could have had a real system seller on their hands and they screwed it up.

You should really know what you're talking about before talking just saying. Activision gave the game to Nihilistic not Sony. Sony did not publish the game or decide who developed it. It was entirely Activision.

If they make a bundle with their best vita game (P4G) along with a decent memory (8 at least) at a competitive price, it shall do well in the west. King_Dodongo
That is not happening for multiple reasons. The main one being the mainstream does not know Shin Megami Tensei nor Persona. It is a niche series. All the hype is internet "core" gamer hype not mainstream hype. No casuals and the majority of gamers are buying a PS Vita for a niche JRPG.

For someone who pretends to know what he is talking about better than I am, you do not provide any facts. Do you have a link perhaps to back up what you said ?
