Me too. Still have it too. Been a bit hard to be a proud owner, gotta say. I'm hoping the PS4 will breathe new life into it. latest from the rumour mill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-21FjbNEChg&feature=youtube_gdata_player

oh wow.

I didnt realise my doomsaying had that much influence.LOL

AdmiralBison

of course you didn't. but what do you think is the biggest influence on any purchase? Word of mouth, this whole thing with the Vita started with slow sales in Japan (because of its more West-centric starting line up, no MH? Really?) then the rest of this is just a lot of people, like you saying "it gonna fail" all over the place. Then other people read it & think, "I don't want to spend $300 on something that will be a paperweight in a year". as a result less units are sold and then its really in danger of failing.

And it doesnt really take that many people to make this happen, just a few with a lot of time on their hands willing to post in many threads ad nauseum. That's how it works, this shouldn't be news to you.

or are you just not used to people taking you seriously...wont make that mistake again

Oh. I didn't know that. Maybe that's where Sony is putting most if it's marketing budget into word of mouth, maybe stealth marketing game forums??which would explain the occasional sales attempts by Cows."I got a PS3 over console X, it's fantastic....Get a PS3!!" Regardless if people take me seriously or not here the evidence outside SW speaks for itself. The fact the TC bothered to make a thread and expressing concern about a competing platform such as iOS speaks volumes of iOS credibility wether people here accept it or not. If SW doesn't take this in stride maybe they should listen to Nintendo claiming Apple as a major competitor . IF Vita flops like the PSP Go, who are we going to blame? Is it Sony's poor marketing? Maybe general lack of support for their endeavor? Maybe lack of foresight to learn from past mistakes? blame the western markets reception to the device? Maybe Apple? Maybe Nintendo? Or maybe blame the doom sayers such as I on SW?

How about "all of the above"?

Do you know anyone who makes a purchase based on advertising? All advertising does is make people aware of the product but nobody with any sense will take the manufacturer's word for it. Only impulse buyers purchase anything based on advertizing alone. It what they read about but other consumers that closes the deal (or not).

Once again, I'm not telling you anthing you don't already know.

redundant post is redundant :) but seriously sir. you didn't need to post this lol just go get the game i don't think anyone'll get the vita sept stupid parents. and the lack of funds they get from the vita port'll teach them to work harder.batbugz
it is neither redundant or stupid. Go to Amazon to see how many ppl were ripped off expecting the full console version of the game. That is the way it is being advertised and the review sites like GS & IGN aren't saying anything. do not buy the Vita version, it is a lousy 3DS port. no open world, no vehicles, linear singleplayer campaign

Agreed, but right now the one PSN per Vita is beginning to bug me. >:/

Zanoh

I hate when people touch my sexy handhelds, so that's not too big of an issue for me.

They must just want households to purchase multiple Vitas. That's pretty unfair though. I know growing up we'd share one Gameboy amongst my entire family as we couldn't afford to just have multiple Gameboys, and on my eight birthday I got my very own Gameboy Color with Pokemon from my mum.

That was one of the greatest birthdays ever.



Lol oh no no, mate. I was referring to the fact I have a JPN PSN account and instead of having the "PSN account to a card", Sony just gave gave me the consellation prize of nothing. :(

but let me ask you this:

Have you tried to load a 2nd card using even the same account yet? That alone is a pain in the a__. it takes like 5-10 minutes each time (depending on the amount of data one each card) to rebuild the game database, then it randomly jumbles the icons of each of the games that it loads to the live area. then every time you go to play a game after you've switched cards it will post that you are playing it for the first time.

I know, some of these complaints are petty, but altogether they are all very inconvenient, enough to make me not want to switch cards.

I haven't tried switching accounts yet, but if this is how it is to just switch the cards, I can only imagine how much trouble it would be. I don't think this is a security feature, I think that they simply couldn't find a way of making it work properly which gives me some hope that this is something that they will work on and is not a result of some new policy (we all know that Sony NEVER changes their policies in our favor) .

Devs need to give up on the PSV and 3DS, and just make games for Smartphones. Mario world or whatever it's called would sell ridiculous amounts if it were available on iOS and Anroid for around £3.99

fine.

something must be killing the Vita.

Either Nintendo

Apple

or Sony themselves.

AdmiralBison

or maybe its people like you going around saying that it's already failed when it hasnt even launched yet

here's a thought, maybe its the ECONOMY (duh) and the fact that it's being released right after xmas & tax season is the reason why so few are sainhg taht they will buy it. give them time and the siren song of Call of Duty portable, you just wait :)

[QUOTE="SRTtoZ"]

Yea listen it sucks but cmon guys...the UMD drive was awful. Now we get our games on memory sticks which is cool and since I had a PSP GO I get to re-download all my Go games to that. Cant wait.

PSP107

Yeah, the UMD was bad. They get damaged to easily. I don't mind re-buying my PSP games on the PSN store.

Im just going to keep my 3000.

I went digital a long time ago, never been sorry I did. the UMD format was doomed from the start
