5 out of 9 you classified as "port" or "remake."Sennorin said:Wrong.
Ocarina of Time - Port <- remake
Pilotwings <- new game
Nintendogs <- new game
Ghost Recon Shadow Wars <- new game
Super Street Fighter IV -Port <- port, but playable on-the-go
Dead or Alive- Port <- new game/remake
Resident Evil Mercenaries -Port of a minigame <- new game
Star Fox (Japan) - Port <- remake
Professor Layton (Japan) <- new game
Even if we set aside for a second that you clearly attempted to troll (amateurishly), your statement of saying "most of these are ports" is objectively wrong.

HolyTaco said:Man, that Parish article made me laugh. Nintendo delivers a sub par handheld - bad OS, bad software, bad hardware and crap online store, it sells badly and I'm supposed to interpret this as a representation that the industry is going under? GTFO. They really knocked it out of the park on how not to run a service, honestly I think Nintendo are incapable of running and maintaining a modern gaming device at the level I expect because of their competing devices. The faster they go the way of Sega the better

I don't know why no one has copy Apple yet. They are clearly successful with their open market, yet no one dare to follow them.
Why limit you games on a certain price range? Why can't more games be $.99 or free, or let the publisher change their price any time they want? Why can't games be released on any day of the week and now being forced to come out on Thursday? Why is there only certain number of games that can be released on the eShop every week? It they don't adapt and change they will soon be phased out.
In the past people keep saying the iTunes App Store structure is not working. But clearly it is working VERY WELL. Not only big publishers support it, but small/indie publishers get to shine every once a while.
Downloading games is the hot thing now. Even my little cousins and older relatives/friends know how to do it on their phone/iPod Touch etc.

IIRC its launch window lineup has few ports. Though, I may be remembering incorrectly.antonz said:I sure hope all the people bitching in here about 3DS games are as quick to bitch about the Vita. Its entire existence is basically to be a me too port machine to the PS3

Okay, I don't know much about the titles. I was just pointing out what he wrote in his (or her) post.Busaiku said:Dead or Alive Dimensions isn't a port.
It and Samurai Warriors Chronicles are new games, but simply retellings of the series' history.
Is there a single port in the launch lineup?antonz said:I sure hope all the people bitching in here about 3DS games are as quick to bitch about the Vita. Its entire existence is basically to be a me too port machine to the PS3

OldJadedGamer said:What Parish ignores is that the system was overpriced to begin with. Dropping the price this soon really does nothing but show that this is the price it should have launched at anyway.

tino said:Still looks like fisher price toy though. Why does it have two color in two panels (not to mention one glassy and one matte color), and why are the screens different size?
The whole thing is a meh.
I thought most people when talking about this were talking as far as engine porting and not specifically games. Basically you can take your UE3 liscence and just start making Vita games without any real hassle.StevieP said:A big advantage to the Vita, according to both Sony and GAF, is easier porting from the current generation of consoles.

As someone who didn't like the look of the 3DS to begin with, I now love it.tino said:AND? Are you going to fucking dispute my criticism of the look of the 3DS?
Theres a couple Japanes UE3 games, and it's not just UE3 but Square-Enix or whoever can just move their current PS3 engines to making Vita games.StevieP said:Western developers aren't interested in either handheld. Aside from porting, of course.

seady said:I think in order to battle mobile phone, dedicated handheld devices need to be LARGER instead of smaller. It should go on the path of iPad and offer slightly deeper experience (though not as deep as console games), along with proper control mechanic and not just touch. That's the kind of experience you can't compare with a mobile phone (big screen, d-pad, great sound etc)
The iPad was able to find a huge audience because it is NOT a phone. It can't be compare to a phone (despite people keep saying it is just a large iPod Touch or iPhone, but has since changed their tone). You can browse the web and play games much more comfortably on it than your tiny screen of a phone.
Once they try to make it small, then they are at risk of being compare to phone, and it is something a dedicated handheld gaming device will never be able to achieve in terms of versatility and mobility. Don't even try to get near it - especially when phone are coming out at such quick pace and in a year your 'dedicated' gaming device will be weaker in spec than those mainstream consumer phone out there.
I actually think Sony should have made the Vita larger.

Um that the "port machine" you were talking about isn't just for straight porting of games?StevieP said:Capcom's MT Framework is running on iPhone, 3DS, Vita, etc. What's your point? SquareEnix will make game for Vita and 3DS, just as they did for PSP and DS.
