Jordan Lund gives his reasons for the decline of handhelds like the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita and the rise of iOS devices.
Game Rant previews AFK Journey's first seasonal update, which includes content of every kind, new heroes, and a whole new region to explore.
"SEGA are today very proud and happy to reveal "Sonic Rumble", the newest addition to the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, releasing this winter. The upcoming Sonic mobile game invites players to enter a twisted toy world created by the notorious Dr. Eggman." - SEGA.
Mobile only? I hope not, but its Sega so you know that they're clueless.
(*looks over at ChuChu Rocket 2 and Sonic Dream Team being iOS subscription only games *)
You lost me at mobile. I don’t care how “good” a mobile game is they are designed to be time sinks and force you to purchase microtransactions that give you better chances at rare loot/outfits and actually making daily progress. I have Ever Crisis a chance and it lost me hard once you hit the wall. They’re disgusting in that design approach. Too bad, because if it were just a regular game on mobile I might check it out, but I know it’ll be be f*cked by the mobile design money leeching model.
I swear they made more Sonic mobile games than proper home consoles ones nowadays.
If all we're getting this year on consoles is some remastered Sonic Generations with Shadow DLC then that's not a good sign at all.
It shouldn't take Sonic Team 5 years to make a sequel and there was a time they released new games on consoles almost yearly.
I have a feeling they would have to do more spin off games as no one's going to wait that long for a sequel of Sonic game and when do they released them spin offs on mobile, so clueless....
What's stopping them from releasing these small mobile games on consoles for $20?

In conclusion, make a bigger screen for PS VITA.
>.<
well look positive at handheld..
+a button = easy to control..
+a game = not all tablet can handle..
+a title = more good title and has a long story
i love handheld, a sample please take a look fifa 13 on vita, its better from smartphone and tablet.. touch, touch pad, button, so good to play on handheld..
handheld will not die like u said..
"I had that awkward thought this morning. I have Vita games I could be playing, why didn’t I bring the Vita? Because I’d rather spend the time with Google News, Facebook and Reddit. While that’s all also possible on the Vita, my iPad has a much, much larger screen."
That's why the VITA should keep on improving the browser (copy paste, more consistent page loads, less random autorefresh, full html 5 video support).
Sony's showing some support by giving the VITA some (not all html 5 vidoes work) html 5 video support with the recent patch (2.10)..
If Sony can't make a set of handheld IPs as attractive as Nintendo's then they should at least keep on sharpening the VITA's outside gaming capabilities (w/c they're trying to do).
Stupid shit...tabs aren't a hand held gamiming systems they are TABS... I really hate when people confuse the two. My ipad this and that stupid ipad has like 5 versions in undar 5 years only games they play is mostly micro games or bad uncontrollable emulators. Gaming isn't the focuse
