Ermmm the Switch? Ps vita has barely any worthwhile games and is a dead platform and the 3DS has had its day

TekoIie2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

It's not a bad system, but its major problem is that there isn't a single "must own" title. It failed to get that killer app that all systems need to survive. To give an example the Switch has BotW, Mario: Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon 2. These 4 games are probably the biggest driver of sales so far and the main reason the Vita struggled is that it never received a game of this calibre to push the hardware.

My PsP and load of bargain priced RPGs I got on ebay is my go to. Otherwise my phone is all I need to mindlessly waste time away from home.

I am currently enjoying Monster Hunter Stories on my 3ds but after that I’m pretty much done with it. My kids play the Switch portable but I never play it on the go.

As this point it is a competition between Nintendo itself, with the 3DS and the Switch. I don’t think there are any other viable handheld right now in the market.

I own pretty much every portable platform from the last 30 years, but my current favorite is the Gameboy Advance SP (AGS-101 backlit screen).

Decent examples can be found quite cheaply. It's small and light with a great form factor (I love the clamshell design) and when partnered with a EZ-FlashIV cart you have access to a huge library of amazing games, including original DMG and Colour titles.

Insane battery life and zero load times means it's always with me - currently playing through Golden Sun, but there;s literally hundreds of titles still on my 'to-play' list.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle24d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
