I'm buying a 3DS tomorrow.

 

[Tobor]

If you own a Vita sell it while it's still worth something and no I'm not joking around.

I think I'm dumping mine tomorrow.

 

[MrDaravon]

Yeah, I was actually flabbergasted when the press conference ended. Disappointment at no megatons aside, the Vita came out a few months ago and was barely mentioned outside of a few things, most of which we already knew about. Holy shit this thing is dead.

If you own a Vita sell it while it's still worth something and no I'm not joking around.

Seriously... Their treating the Vita the same way they're treating Move. Cut your loses while you can

 

[- J - D -]

Vita on suicide watch.

 

[JohngPR]

What is there to discuss?

 

[GWX]

And to think 3DS get its own (60 minutes long) software showcase. Goodbye, Vita.

 

[Link0080]

None of those games is probably worth buying a Vita for, sadly.

 

[botty]

The Vita?

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

It's dead. Sony killed it and for that I will not be buying another Playstation product for a very very long time.

 

[SteveWinwood]

I had the lowest expectations for what they'd show for it... And they still zoomed right underneath them.

 

[The M.O.B]

Bunch of spinoffs and ports..........reminds me of another Sony handheld....

At least demo one of the Vita games instead of "Waggle De Book"

 

[Blunt]

But there's that new white unit you can buy and play sweet fuck all on!

 

[Nemo]

I wanted RPGs, e3 gave me none. TGS better give me some

 

[Exterminieren]

They threw it under the bus.

Really dispirited over here.

 

[Deadly Joker]

The Vita will be dead in under two years.

What an epic disaster.

 

[Heysoos]

 

[M-PG71C]

I expected a little bit more than what we got. Shame. :/

I think the platform will soon be replaced with "PlayStation Mobile". Give it just a bit. It's coming whether or not they want to admit it publicly.

 

[brochiller]

You mean Crackle isn't going to save it?

 

[Anticitizen One]

Kaz probably just wants to kill it off and move on at this point

 

[Dead Prince]

Nah man, we're getting PSOne games and Activision has promised us to take a shit on the platform with a CoD after-thought. :/

All eyes on TGS for me.

wait for gamescom. Wait for TGS. Wait for...

 

[Spiegel]

That was beyond embarrasing. Vita is dead

 

[ElFly]

They are pushing playstation mobile now.

Their exit strategy.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Sony doesn't realize that CoD and AC games aren't something that will sell the system. They need unique IPs and a lot of system sellers. Didn't they talk about showing 25-30 game demos? I'm pretty sure they didn't show even half of that.

 

[Flunkie]

Seriously. The fuck? PSP had better fucking support than this bullshit. My #1 played game on Vita right now is a PSP version of a PS2 port. There's something wrong with that.

 

[Levyne]

We got a Sony Smash Vita, Creed Vita and a title screen for BLOPs vita.

That it?

 

[shira]

$100 price increase

 

[Bukana]

Too disappointing is not enough words to describe my feelings.

 

[Lesiroth]

At this point it's getting treated almost worse than the PSP was in its final years.

 

[Grecco]

Nope.

 

[Emitan]

why would you announce games for a ps3 controller?

 

[Diddy Kong]

Sony: "Isn't that that thing we port our low budget PS3 games to?"

You mean PSABR?

[Combichristoffersen]

Not even Sony cares about the Vita at this point, it seems.

 

[Effect]

I'm amazed there was nothing regarding the Vita outside of the All Stars, Assassin's Creed and CoD announcements. That's not enough especially since there was nothing shown of CoD and All Stars success is very iffy. AC isn't going to do great in the wake of the console versions. Yikes. Sony doesn't have another conference planned do they? Another Heaven event?

 

[Ponn]

I really see a repeat of PSP with Vita. Atlus, JRPG's and niche quirky machine that can play PSP and PSone games on an awesome screen. If you are expecting anything past that I think you will be disappointed. Games like Assassins Creed and CoD will be surprise not the norm.

 

[cnizzle06]

Why in the world was there no price drop? I thought if anything, that was guaranteed.

 

[VanWinkle]

I was thinking during the Last of Us demo that they'd be showing the Vita games afterwards, but the conference ended. We got a logo of a third-party game we heard was coming a year and a half ago, a trailer for a third-party game, and news that one of their PS3 games was coming to Vita.

What.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Never heard of it.

 

[Baloonatic]

I said that I would wait to see what Sony showed at E3 before joining the people saying it was doomed.

Yeah, it's doomed. Why the fuck did they even release it?

 

[Dr. Feel Good]

Assassin's Creed spin-off that doesn't seem to have much back behind it.
Call of Duty exclusive with absolutely no show that it exists.
White PSP, force bundled into the AC title with no price drop.
Expanded option to be a touch controller for PS3 that literally no one will support.
Aaaand, Super Smash Bros: Sony Edition that will be most likely have the dominant version on PS3.

Yeah, Sony doesn't give a fuck.

 

[TL4E]

You can play Sony Smash Bros on it.

 

[OldJadedGamer]

They spent more time on Wonderbook than everything on Vita combined.

 

[theBishop]

No Call of Duty footage is a major fail.

It's also annoying that they have the "cross-controller" idea, but only for one game which they already showed 6 months ago.

 

[schuelma]

From a SalesAge perspective, it isn't shocking to see the lack of 3rd party support.

But where is the first party stuff?

 

[Saroyan]

as a Vita owner that was seriously disappointing. What the hell Sony?

 

[gamergirly]

They're quietly edging away from it IMO. Keep throwing games and "portable exclusives" but if it doesnt catch on, no loss since PS3 is the main platform

 

[Defuser]

Seriously, what's the deal with Sony when it comes to showing off their handhelds? Every single E3 Sony always take a shit on their handhelds while giving love to ps3 and even the fricking Move.

 

[Kodiak]

Guys, I need you to calm down for a minute.
There's been good Vita announcements lately, my dudes.
Sound Shapes is looking pretty cool.
Jet Grind Radio is coming out.
You can even play Smash Brothers on it except with Jak and Daxter.
It'll be alright everyone, they might even release a new Suikoden on it eventually.

 

[Osaka15]

Sony has not convinced me to buy one anytime soon.

 

[Knux-Future]

I want to buy one but goddam that was pretty sad.

I want Gravity Daze but Sony....took an L like Nas tonight
