Defective displays found on demo units - but should consumers be worried, asks GamerZines?
The Vita is a well-designed system, albeit one that Sony left for dead as soon as it hit its first bump in the road. If it weren't for a couple negative quirks, it might have even been one of the best handhelds ever made. Unfortunately, those quirks have turned into awful problems as of late, and have only served to tarnish the legacy of what has otherwise been an excellent cult system.
I like the Vita a lot. I actually blame Sony in putting less faith in it than it should
I'll always find it hilarious how even when Sony seemingly abandoned their second handheld, Vita still outsold Wii U which was heavily supported by Nintendo.
Never underestimate the power that third party support can do for a platform.
got the vita although it was dead on arrival. mobile gaming on dedicated machines is deadder than dead. oh wait, the switch is doing stellar, even rivaling the ps4, the xbox and the new xoxbox. ok, let's forget for one second about the absolute market dominator: when was the last time you saw someone playing his or her dedicated machine outside? I can't really remember. what I'm seeing everyday though is that everybody and their little daughter got smartphones when they are on their way to go somewhere.
Vita was and still amazing. Playing uncharted and gravity rush on it was simply epic. Such a shame Sony gave up on it
Are you a huge PS Vita fan? If the answer is yes, and you absolutely adore your Playstation Vita then this video is going to be tough for you. The VitaBoys count down the top 5 best PS Vita games that got cancelled.
The PlayStation Vita is such an underrated handheld device that it's almost sickening on how it just disappeared in the hands of gamers. And even though the Vita vanished off the face of the earth, this does not mean that a next gen Vita isn't welcomed. If another iteration of the PS Vita does come to be, than this could spell disaster for the Nintendo Switch.
i m calling it now...No Monster Hunter 5 No portable console for me .....if Vita 2 is to be released with games like 'portable"Uncharted&a mp;a mp;q uot; , portable "Horizon", portable Assasin Creed , is Hell NO ...portable consoles need proprietary games (ex Splatoon Monster Hunter, Gravity Rush ..games that can be played portbale) and not degraded versions of home console games (huge mistake from Sony to support Vita with Uncharted and Killzone (two mediocre appeal IPs that could only be enjoyed on pS3 because their graphical superiority) and most importantly Vita died because its main life source MHou series was stolen/went Nintendo exclusive ...
There is no PS Vita 2 lol so good luck with that. PS Vita had way worse games than the WiiU and was a disaster outside of Japan.
Switch has Dragon Quest XI
The next potential PlayStation handheld will not.
That alone spells which will be more successful
I hope not I had 3 PSPs all 3 of them sent back to my gamestore all had dead pixels one was an annoying white pixel in the centre of the screen which was so annoying when viewing cut scenes and UMD movies
Depending on how early builds they are, they are naturally more prone to dead pixels because they usually aren't tested as extensively as those that go to retail. By "they" I mean builds that are never going to retail of course.
I had a dead pixel on one of my older phones and it was annoying as hell, even though I didn't use it nearly as much as I use my SGS2 for example. Let's just hope that Vitas are built from quality hardware and aren't prone to dead pixels or other defects.
My 3DS has 3 pixels, though they aren't too annoyed, but still I don't know should I send it back to Ninty so they could fix it... dilemma.. should I live with that and wait for Mario 3D land or should I send it? Do some of you know how long are they fixing?
thanks in advance..
ontopic.. I hope Vita's screen won't suffer from these.. (I mean most of models)..
no one knows but the fact Vita screens been made by samsung isn't the best start (quality built wise). imo this should ring very serious alarm bells about the longevity of the Vita's screen life.
to those who are disagreeing with me,i appreciate your love for your samsung screens & i do believe their screens look the part but "quality" wise samsung is still a 2nd class manufacturer & at the bottom of the 2nd class list too (the like of jvc,hitachi,aiwa..etc are at the top of that list).
Another good reason to wait a little before purchase. I will not tolerate 1 dead pixel on a brand new console.
