Well my thoughts on the article were that I don't like the comparison to phones, because phones have additional cell phone bills, and most of the complaints didn't seem like too big of a deal. I have always been a Nintendo fan, but once I heard about the 3ds, I realized I am getting to old for their games. I wouldn't be caught dead out in public with one, so I realized that now is as good a time as ever to get a PS vita. Besides, I don't like home consoles because I travel a lot and am always on the go. I like lengthy games that you get your money's worth, and ios games just aren't doing it for me. So I will try the PS vita. :)
