The system's web browser is Webkit based. Asked about Flash support, Matsumoto said "At the present time, I will give a No Comment."
Jeff_Rigby would be proud
Because it's f+cking great for a portable. Use it and you will see.bytesized said:impressive functionality but it is ugly as fuck with those bubble icons. Wish they had done just something more minimalistic and stylish.
He's complaining about aesthetics, not usability. It's not going to suddenly look different because he's using it.Hyuga said:Because it's f+cking great for a portable. Use it and you will see.
Live Free or Die said:Have the trophies been shown off yet? Like how they look when you get one in a game?
Ok, the trailer I was referring to is the one you already have in the OP. Here's a link to where the OS trailer starts during the conference anywas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nqs7hLvedfA&feature=player_detailpage#t=144sJinfash said:Sure, gimme some time.Bad_Boy said:Do you have a link of the video? And at what time does it occur? I can always add it to the page.
Yahoo.jp and yahoo.com are both ugly, though.leroidys said:Yeah I hate the UI, but am still beyond hyped for the vita. The reason that the XMB was so great was because of its sleekness and simplicity. This is more akin to yahoo.jp or something, which is par for the course in Japanese design. There's definitely a huge gulf between east and west over UI design.
Does anyone know how the Japanese press/gamers have responded to the Vita's bubble UI?
That's now how dedicated gaming hardware works.°°ToMmY°° said:They said Vita will always prioritizes games, so if it's running low on memory for the game it will shutdown background apps.

Thanks Jinfash, that is interesting. I gotta run, but I'll definitely add the updated stuff to the OT when i come back.Jinfash said:
I thought the conference mentioned you can customize the home screenwe.are.the.armada said:Great OP! Yeah, I hope that we can deeply customize the colors on that UI.
chubigans said:XMB would be a TERRIBLE idea for a touchscreen interface. At least with this if I want something, I press it. With XMB, it's swipe to the left, swipe down, select. That works great with standard controls, but with touch, not so much.
Because then there'd be two OS styles to have to keep up with instead of just one. There's a reason why MS nukes the previous OS style with each new major dashboard refresh on the 360 (besides memory, obviously).Deadly Joker said:Why can't they give you the option to use the XMB with only the dpad or analog sticks?

badcrumble said:Oh sweet, you can turn off the bubbles! The banners still aren't as nice as the XMB, but they're way, way better than the bubbles.
I feel so youngReallink said:Both interfaces look cheap and remind me of some off-brand PMP/MP3 for tweens. I guess that's to be expected given their target demographic though.
yup, considering to what is happening to Samsung and Appleteiresias said:I like the vertical bar navigation, but could do without the bubble icon navigation. IMO, the bubble icon navigation is only that shape as to forgo any lawsuits from Apple over them feeling they have a patent on square icons.
Yeah there's money to be made, but I don't think that was their main reasoning for the lack of onboard storage. They had to get cost of the Vita down.CorrisD said:The only thing that disappointed me about this otherwise great future handheld is the lack of, or at least so far no mention of, built-in memory.
I understand trying to make some money back on overly expensive proprietary cards, but to have nothing from the get go annoys me.
Otherwise I can't wait to get one, can't argue with being able to get some trophies while out and about, lol.
