Sony Vita versus Mobile Gaming - and examination.
"While the 20 year anniversary edition of Nordic Game, NG24 Spring's homepage on 21-24 May in Malmö, Sweden, is getting closer, the organizers announced that more than 150 speakers are now lined up for the show." - Nordic Game.
With Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 around the corner, many players believe that the map has already been leaked.
The next Fortnite season will begin in less than three weeks, and we already know one of the skins that will come with it.
mobile phones this year will surpass vita &ps360 in performance and graphics with quad-core and s4 graphic cards. I would have got vita if it was a phone. That closed the market to a large group of people. I, and many others, don't like caring multiple devices.
I don't want a powerful handheld market. The handheld market - much like the PSN and Xbox Live - gives indie developers a much needed platform to experiment on. Mobile gamers also have lower graphical expectations. Even if mobile devices DID exceed the graphical abilities of the Vita or current consoles, it doesn't mean that I want to play games on them. My current phone is more powerful than my PS2, but I would rather play games on a PS2. A console or a PC is more accommodating for games than a phone.
I think your assessment is off base though. Sony wouldn't have released the Vita with its graphical capabilities only to be easily out-shined; and the Vita offers more intuitive gaming than a touch screen phone.
The next generation of consoles will exceed the ability by mobile devices exponentially, and AAA developers will devote exceptional amounts of time and money to push the capabilities of those platforms.
I stand by my arguments presented in the original source: If the Vita would have been made into a phone, they would have sacrificed far too many things that make the Vita a superior tool for gaming.
A lot of people are not interested in the Vita. There is just to much other stuff out there right now. And at that price in this economy, with hardly no storage? Not good.
The Vita is for gamers who actually want a device like it to first and foremost, play good games and provide great experiences. If you don't want a PSV, don't get one. You're simply not the target market.
Iphone (for example) can cost around £500-£1000 over a 2 year contract. Vita costs £199 or £249 (for a 3G one).
I have had an iphone 4 for the past year or so and i must say most of the games suck. There are like 4-5 that really are any good. I mean can someone please tell me what games come close to console gaming or indeed vita on iphone?
Mobile gaming on android/iphone is great for indie developers though... We are at a point like we were 30 years ago where one person can make a game and get it plauyed by millions.. thats pretty cool
