I believe those consoles are meant to be collector items. They aren’t meant to be manufactured forever.
Gotta pay respect to the overlord.
No Mass Effect or Dragon Age? What have EA been doing with both of those franchises???
“so...the PSP is a "failure" because the DS was selling extremely good”
Lmao dude who said the PSP was a failure? I said the PS Vita WAS a failure. The PSP competed with the DS and was fairly successful at doing that, it has nothing to do with either the Vita or the 3DS.
“ but the 3DS is a "success" despite selling less than the PSP because the Vita failed?”
The 3DS sold around 75 millions, a little about 5 million b...
They could have made another Nino Kuni game on console, but instead they choose to do this because of money. I know money is important for them, but they shouldn’t forget their fan who made Nino Kuni into a franchise as it is right now.
“ So, can you please tell us all how your almighty Nintendo was trying their best to save the Wii U again? ”
The Wii U was supported for 5 whole years. The Vita had 2 years before Sony completely abandon the console and rely on indie devs, the type of devs that the PS fans seem to hate so much right now. So, Sony did try very hard it seem.
“And the 3DS was such a success it outsold the PSP too, right?”
Wait a minute, The DS WAS the PSP’...
“ To give the Xbox customers the better version a year later and to sell dlc to the playstation customers at the same time.”
How does that make any lick of sense, business-wise for MS? Did they just wake up one day and thought: “Ohhhh..we had just bought Bethesda. Let cut Deathloop’s content so we can annoy all the fanboys on N4G even if it might make the game bad and result in less revenue. WAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!”
Smh.
“ but do you remember the time when Nintendo tried to con people with the 3DS by selling it for $250 and it almost becomes a flop? and then they were quickly forced to drop the price because Sony announced the Vita will also launch at $250? ahh... fun times that was!”
Do you remember when the Vita was a flop 2 years after released and Sony did nothing to help it while Nintendo tried everything they could to save the 3DS and succeed immensely? Yeah fun time indeed.
“ Does that make the psp a home console?”
Did the PSP have a dock included in the box? Was the PSP advertised as a home console and recognized as such by the market and the developers? Did the PSP run home console games equivalent to games such as Doom, The Witcher, or The Outer World?
“ it's a Nintendo's handheld, so it's not a surprise, really”
They must be doing something right then to outsell the PS3, because if pricing is the #1 reason, then again the Vita would have been the best selling Playstation console/handheld.
“ I suppose someone could, but that would just be plain silly. What would be the point in that? It's a hand held first and foremost.”
What dictate it to be a handheld first and foremost? Does it come with zero accessories that can transform it into a home console?
Nintendo thanks you for the compliment.
Isn’t it amazing that a “handheld” can actually outsell a home console? Sony wished they could achieve half of that with the Vita.
What if someone were to buy a Switch, put it into a dock under their TV, and never take it out for the rest of the Switch’s lifetime?
"Sony Buys Devs To Make Games Multiplatform"
How is that a bad thing for consumer exactly?
@captainhenry
Do you live in a world where people are only capable of owning one single console?
You’re right. This studio does not make new games. They are a PC-porting studio. I feel like we should use a more clearer source next time.
If you’re new to Ghost of Tushima, it’ll be $70 on the PS5. I wonder why this hasn’t been brought up on this comment section yet.
“ Yeah and those guys never bad mouthed Sony”
So valid criticism is now labeled as badmouthing? Why is Sony immune to criticism?
“ Some left others joined the astro team”
They didn’t left by choice. Sony let them go.
“ And we will see Sony acquired l few japanese based developers very soon”
Any source? A lot of things indicated that Sony had given up on the Japanese market For now.
