Definitely, I can't enjoy playing full fledged games with only a touch screen.

Labadal said:My question to people with smartphones and/or tablets is: Will you get a PlayStation Vita at $250 if enough compelling software is available at release?
I am already interested in some PSVita games: LBP, Modnation Racers, Ucharted: GA, Gravity Daze, Everybody's Golf and Dragon's Crown. Then we have Wipeout, Sound Snapes, and a couple of fighting games and whatever will be announced at TGS. I am guessing they will also allow us to play our PSOne classics.
As a comparison, I own zero actual 3DS games.

I'm a happy iPhone 4 gamer, and I desperately want a Vita but I'll be waiting for a price drop. I should have waited on the 3DS, but I got it virtually free as a present anyway.
To answer a few of the questions in the OP, no, a system without buttons isn't really suited for every single type of game (especially if it's a game that's been ported from a button-equipped system), but I also don't need each system to play every single kind of game. The app store has provided me with a ton of great puzzlers, casual arcade games, high score chasers, and more.
Pretty much this.Iadien said:Most likely not. I'm personally sick of paying 40 bucks to play games on a tiny ass screen.

I've never really been one of the Apple acolytes that thinks the iPhone and iPod Touch will destroy dedicated handheld devices, but I'm also more than happy to dig through the App Store and find an insane amount of really high-quality games. Most of them are definitely more pick-up-and-play, but those are also the kinds of games I gravitate to on consoles (shmups, puzzlers, and other short-form gaming like you see on XBLA or PSN).Labadal said:Fair enough. I can enjoy some of those games, and I guess many idevice owners are of the same opinion. I just need more for my personal gaming needs. (moslty play rpgs, trpgs and arpgs)

H_Prestige said:No, but not because I have an iphone. I don't need a vita because I have a ps3 (both a slim and a 60gb) and a kickass plasma tv. That combination is far superior to a vita.
I'm with you. The first thing I say when I play those games is that I need a controller.Para bailar La Bomba said:You know what types of games i can't stand on iOS: racing games. Ugh. Using your iPad as a steering wheel makes you look like the biggest douche on the planet, especially when you tilt your head to follow it. FTS.
