Did Nintendo just leave the goal completely open?

The PS Vita can do all what the Wii U does.
Streaming from a mother console has been a part of PSP since 2006.

And the PS Vita has analog sticks.

The Sony guys can 100% match this. Only that you can take your Vita beyond your home.

The PS Move on PSVita patent makes much more sense now as well:

[Count Dookkake]

Can't do Smash Bros.

 

[perfectnight]

Can't do Smash Bros.

haha they could make 20 new smash games and I still wouldn't buy this awkward controller they are trying to pass as a console.

 

[Lyte Edge]

Can't do Smash Bros.

But it can do Street Fighter X Tekken.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

Everyone wants a $250 controller.

 

[chubigans]

Circle pads for Wii U.

Who the hell thought that was a good idea.

 

[Skilletor]

But it can do Street Fighter X Tekken.

lol. 3DS will get Tekken 3DS

PSV will get TTT2

 

[iNvid02]

still dotn know what the hell is going on

 

[Jenga]

But it can do Street Fighter X Tekken.

ill be buying super street fighter x tekken for the pc 2 years later

 

[LosDaddie]

Did Nintendo just left the goal completely open?

:lol Why yes, clearly they did.

 

[Shai-Tan]

You could do this OTA with 802.11n but I'm guessing the tech they are using to stream better suits what it's designed for

 

[WalkMan]

All you really need to do to get the Wii U experience is to purchase a PSVita and a PS3.

 

[Zoe]

As I said in another thread, I wouldn't be surprised to see Wii U -> PS3+PSV ports.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

All you really need to do to get the Wii U experience is to purchase a PSVita and a PS3.

A 4 player session on Wii U will cost someone around $500. A 4 player session for ps3/vita (assuming the PS3 could stream to multiple consoles at once), about $1300.

 

[Goldrusher]

If Sony allows us to stream everything from PS3 to Vita, open up RemotePlay, you end up with pretty much the same experience.

AND

You're not limited to the living room. You can take the games with you everywhere you go.

 

[JGS]

Yep, this sure required a thread instead of a post.

Yep.

 

[Maleficence]

Seriously do not see the point of this new thing at all.

 

[-COOLIO-]

As I said in another thread, I wouldn't be surprised to see Wii U -> PS3+PSV ports.

if this happens ill buy a V and call it a day

lol

ps3V

vs

WiiU

 

[Beer Monkey]

I'd suspect that Wii U ends up with way more titles that are specifically designed for the console+"handheld" experience, but we'll see.

Ultimately though don't people buy Nintendo consoles because they want to play Nintendo franchises?

How did you work this out?

 

[Jomjom]

So Nintendo copied Sony this time pretty much instead of the other way around?

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

How did you work this out?

One console plus 4 controllers (guesstimated) vs one console and 4 portables.

 

[perfectnight]

One console plus 4 controllers (guesstimated) vs one console and 4 portables.

fucking lol

 

[digita1alchemy]

"Latency Free" is probably the key word here. Could the PS3 really do that with Vita?

 

[Jaruru]

"Latency Free" is probably the key word here. Could the PS3 really do that with Vita?

no

 

[Maaseru]

So u think the controller is the console!! ? Did you not see the actual unit. I only care for HD Nintendo games though I got none except Zelda 3 sec demo that will never happen

 

[Bad_Boy]

here we gooooo.


but yeah you're right, seems like the vita wouldnt have much problem doing this besides having a stylus.

 

[D3adend]

no

Bluetooth.
So yes it can.

Sony does What Nintendoes too?

 

[dacuk]

All you really need to do to get the Wii U experience is to purchase a PSVita and a PS3.

Good luck waiting for Mario, Zelda or Metroid there.

PROTIP: Bring a chair.

I don't think the WiiU supports a stylus since its using a capacitive touch screen?

 

[Zoe]

Not using the PSP method.

But I'm guessing that's also why people are let down by the WiiU graphics.

 

[Esch]

If i were Sony i'd play this up as a huge part of their PSV campaign and new console

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Yeah all of the stuff the Wii U controller does is stuff that Vita does already.

 

[AgentChris]

I wish the Wii U analog sticks were place similarly to the PSV.

 

[Shai-Tan]

"Latency Free" is probably the key word here. Could the PS3 really do that with Vita?

the ps3 only has 802.11g so no except for simple stuff. in theory you could do it over IP with the ps3 wired but I'm guessing more people use wireless than wired on their ps3

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

360/PS3 ports? Yes, yes it does.

I think more 3rd party games were actually announced for Wii U though?

 

[Somnid]

It's backwards. Wii U does what PS3 and Vita do. Or at least I don't think a 5" portable is leaving the house all that often.

 

[Hela]

Sure, it PSVita were packed in with every PS3s.

 

[Man]

It supports stylus. And single touch taps.
PS Vita is multi touch (and rear touch).

 

[Massa]

Playstation Vita doesn't have TV output, so no.

 

[Gilby]

Kinda interesting to see how this plays out.

 

[ColR100]

Way to miss the point.

 

[GJS]

So u think the controller is the console!! ? Did you not see the actual unit. I only care for HD Nintendo games though I got none except Zelda 3 sec demo that will never happen

No, the controller is not the console..

The Console design is likely not final, they probably only have a dev design so they didn't focus on it.

 

[pakkit]

I don't think the WiiU supports a stylus since its using a capacitive touch screen?

It does they showed one in the sizzle reel.

Makes sense. The first Wii shared a lot of development with the PSP, now the WiiU will share a lot of development with the Vita.

 

[Ark]

Think I'll be buying Vita for sure.

 

[Crazymoogle]

PSV is missing the more powerful base station and simultaneous TV output, two extra shoulder buttons and a larger screen that makes sense for the input they're talking about.

Sony could do *similar* stuff if they wanted but I'm guessing both consoles go in much different directions.

 

[TTP]

the ps3 only has 802.11g so no except for simple stuff. in theory you could do it over IP with the ps3 wired but I'm guessing more people use wireless than wired on their ps3

Isn't Vita Bluetooth equipped just like any PS3 controller?

 

[Krauser Kat]

It will never work, fragmentation just does not allow it too.

 

[JWong]

No, the Vita is actually a console.

Wii U is not.

 

[anddo0]

How powerful is WII U, do we have confirmed specs?
