You forgot the proprietary sd card by sony that is one of the main reason many fans got sour
@CreativeGeoff3 сағат бұрын
Entries from Ratchet and Clank, God of War, GTA, Metal Gear Solid or even Infamous series would've pushed the Vita very well. I listed those games because a majority of those titles help push the PSP. A more accesssible and affordable memory option would've worked as well, since consumers had issues with how expensive the proprietary memory card options were.

Contrary to popular belief, I think the Vita failed because its Western library was lackluster. The PSP got its own God of War games, Grand Theft Auto’s, Monster Hunters, Metal Gear Solid’s, the list goes on; some titles on par or even better than the home console games. The Vita got…Uncharted and WipeOut I guess? And a terrible CoD, a poorly optimized Borderlands 2 port, and other games I’d rather just play on PS3. The PSP had similar issues but not quite as bad. PlayStation handhelds have never really felt like must-own systems, rather just cool niche things in the moment. Unlike Nintendo handhelds where they’ll put the next mainline entry in their Pokémon or Mario Kart series, the PS handhelds always got spin-offs that didn’t matter. The only PS handheld game I can think of that is a mainline entry in its series is MGS Peace Walker (which if you ask me, should’ve been delayed, called “MGS5,” and been a PS3/Vita Crossplay title.)

I really don’t want it to be Free to Play. I think a reason it flopped was because the DLC was all leaked and they had to reveal them too early. If the leaks stopped around then, and also the DLC picks were in general better, I think the game wouldn’t have flopped as badly.

I used to own a PSVITA, though I traded it for a Nintendo Switch. Personally I think Sony could have gone far with the Vita if they had put more effort into it, though instead they decided to ditch it to focus more on both the PS3 and PS4 , which is a shame because the Vita was a awesome handheld with alot of potential.

The Binding of Isaac is a game of thrilling highs and crushing lows. You haven't felt shame and despair until you've choked on Ultra Greedier, or gotten screwed at the Dark Room because you got your ass whooped by three Dark Ones at once. But, you also haven't felt the kind of happiness and accomplishment you get from beating Hush or Delirium for the first time. I can imagine that I'll be playing Isaac for a very long time, and I can't wait to get my third Hush victory and finally unlock the Repentance path.

The vita was something I wanted to love, but just didn't. For something that checked off so many of the boxes of things I like/wanted, but it just not clicking, it feels weird. It's a great console in a vacuum, but it was exposed (at least for me) by other consoles past and present existing. It's hard to get excited about games you've already played or exist in improved and cheaper forms on other systems you own.

There's a reason why they no longer supported the PlayStation Vita. It costs too much to make an exclusive game on PlayStation Vita, as you said before many PlayStation Vita games are Spinoffs and collections, if they were to make a high quality exclusive game on PlayStation Vita it would cost them as much as a PlayStation 3 game, which was crazy in 2012. Also Nintendo had problems supporting 2 consoles around in the Wii U era, that's why they unified the teams and made 1 console instead of 2.

PS3 killed the bespoke, exotic console architecture. The Cell chip, Blu-Ray drive and stuffing a whole PS2 into it drove up the price, and it's been said that sourcing the Blu-Ray drives themselves directly contributed to the system's delays in reaching the market. But forcing programmers to jump through the hoops required to deliver respectable results wrangling the Cell BE and its SPU cores was what hurt the system the most during its early years. It's no wonder consoles are basically all custom x86-64 PCs or (in Nintendo's case) Android-compatible ARM devices now.

BIS being remade on the 3DS wasn't really something that could have been avoided considering the financial disadvantages AlphaDream was already in. For them to make a Switch game they'd have needed significant assistance from Nintendo, both in budget and experience since they had always been primarily handheld developers. It just wasn't feasible. It was either a 3DS release or nothing, and I'm happy we got the remake at all. I love BIS, especially how it uses Fawful, and I was so happy to see all that game's sprites officially updated to the 3DS style. We now had nearly the entire series in one sprite style, except Partners in Time. I screamed with joy when that game was announced and it forever breaks my heart that the rest of the fandom didn't share my enthusiasm given the last "original" game was the sterile mess of Paper Jam.

If I were the boss of Sony at the time, I would’ve treated the Vita a LOT better! Here’s how I would’ve handled it: - no rear touch pad - games would’ve come on Blu Ray based Super UMDs, which’d be higher capacity than the PSP’s DVD-based UMDs - a stronger 1st party lineup, including a new Locoroco game, a new version of the Talkman language app and more - a 4G model of the system introduced later in the system’s life - if EA still drop Vita support shortly into the handheld’s life, I’d fill the sports game void with new World Tour Soccer, Total NBA and GameDay games! (The latter would have CFL teams due to EA’s exclusive deal with the NFL) They’d also come with a No Loot Box guarantee!
@deadmetalbr4 күн бұрын
And it still would have tanked. -The UMD drive was the most vulnerable part of the PSP, easily broken or made non-functional. Its motor and laser assembly drained the battery much faster than reading from the Memory Stick PRO Duo(TM), and once the system was jailbroken ripping discs to ISO images became child's play. It's the single biggest contributor to the PSP's piracy problem and moving to solid state game cards was the right call. -A stronger first-party lineup should have been a priority from day one, but consider this: The Vita and PS4 were the beginning of Sony's problem of overspending on individual AAA games, which has become downright ridiculous. Spider-Man 2 cost something like $315 million and had to move 7 million units _just to break even._ They abandoned the SS Vita because their investments hadn't resulted in the sales of a sufficient number of consoles for the platform to reach critical mass. What Sony really should have done with Vita was to take a page each from Nintendo and the independant scene. Fewer expensive AAA movies you occasionally get to play, more pick-up-and-play bursts of entertainment. Lots more! -Along with that stronger lineup of less expensive games, Sony's marketing department should have gotten their asses out of bed and actually promoted the damned thing AND its software, first _and_ third party. Even if that meant acknowledging that the thing wasn't exactly the cutting edge of graphical fidelity or immersive experiences. Even if it meant leaning into the console's strongest selling point later in its lifespan: its catalog of JRPGs and niche anime games. -3G was a joke and it shouldn't have been included in the first place. It was a pointless gimmick that needlessly increased the R&D budget for absolutely no payoff. Have you ever tried to play, say, Rocket League over a cellular connection? It's hell on Earth. Even at its best, you just wind up wishing you had real Wi-Fi and abandoning cellular the moment you're back in range of your router. Upgrading from shit to crap would have helped nothing. -The Switch ended the pattern of a withdrawal of support from EA meaning a console is doomed, thank the gods. Platforms live and die based on the strength of their own libraries, not the contributions of a single publisher, no matter how huge and monolithic. The entire industry would be better off if EA imploded. -Really? You wouldn't have just used microSD cards? Sony could have absolutely used cheap memory cards and still hardened them against piracy with an encrypted file system. The PSP and Vita homebrew scenes were full of really smart people who absolutely would have defeated the console's security measures anyway; Those damned memory cards were just Sony getting high on their own supply, _again._ Cheap and plentiful storage would have scared off fewer users, and it would have made it so I could actually use my Vita's cartridge slot instead of an SD2Vita adapter. At the end of the day, Sony didn't fight to save the Vita because they didn't have to. SCE's bread and butter is AAA, singleplayer blockbusters you play after plopping your ass on the couch. If PS4 was as shaky out of the gate as the Wii U, things might have turned out differently, but that's not what happened. Nintendo HAD TO fight to pull the 3DS' head above water. It was the only way to keep the whole ship afloat while they dipped into their war chest to develop a console the public actually wanted.. and the Switch was everything the Wii U AND the Vita should have been.

I didn’t like UMD’s the catties break and then you have to buy new ones. Also iirc, some umd versions of games had features removed. UMD’s are cool but they’re not very practical imo. Rear touchpad can stay, it’s a decent substitute for L2 and R2 once you actually get used to it. Other than that, I agree with this.
@morsecode98011 сағат бұрын
- I used to agree about the rear touchpad, but full trigger buttons would stick out too much and hurt the Vita’s portability. - UMD’s were a mistake that should never have existed. The disc drives took up way too much battery life, and loading times were painfully slow. If anything, the PSP should’ve used cartridges. - For launch lineup, the Vita should’ve been on par with the PSP by having its own God of War and GTA from day one. - Cellular data for Vita was a mistake. A cool concept at first, but not worth it. Shouldn’t have been attempted at all.
