Kaz (and it was all Kaz) had to spend billions of dollars (price cuts) to save the PS3. He really turned it around, riding that edge between affordability and profitability until the first parties could get ramped up. Masterful. The problem is that Sony doesn't have billions to spend anymore and they don't have Kaz directing the Gaming Division, he's moved onto bigger things.
Edit: Plus the mobile gaming market went and changed right under Sony's nose and they didn...
Vita ain't no PS2. Why? No third party support. PS2 had tremendous third party support even before it launched. Vita has very little. Hell, Sony can't even get Naughty Dog to make a game for it, why should third party companies bother to?
I'd be surprised if Vita is around in 2015 let alone 2022.
The Vita is a solution looking for a problem to solve. Very few people want an immersive console experience on a handheld, especially for that price.
Harsh but true. The market drives the producers.
oh please
meh. Better than nothing I guess
Wasn't this guy an N4Ger? UNCyrus? Sucks you got laid off man, hope it works out for you. When a door closes another one opens and all that.
Good Luck
You're nervous aren't you?
I can't believe they didn't drop the price significantly.
Borderlands 2 on the Vita would be epic.
Drop the price and I'll be more interested
The Vita is an albatross around their necks.
Using N4G is not a very good way to measure demand for Sony products. Read up on "Confirmation Bias"
I'm a bit disappointed in the driving in the game, a step down from Borderlands imo.
Otherwise I'm loving it.
Skyrim, while a great game, is rated WAY too high.
I love to see publishers and developers rewarded for taking on the risk of launching a new IP.
I don't think Resistance was a Halo clone. Not even close.
"A lot of PS Vita's early catalog has so far been made up of console ports -- which may have contributed to the troubles Sony has faced with building momentum for the system so far -- but now the company is strongly recommending against and guiding publishers away from ports".
I don't think Sony knows what it wants the Vita to be. There's no clear vision for the device from them. It's too bad, really. Great potential.
Know what? That ND isn't making games for the Vita? Just Google Naughty Dog Vita

Then why doesn't Sony make ND make a game for the Vita? It certainly could use their talents.
