ReviewLagoon:
Recently, GoNintendo posted an article mentioning that everyone was happy to call the Nintendo 3DS an initial “failure” and were thrilled to write stories and blog posts about “Nintendo is Doomed” – but the article asked why there aren’t any “Vita is Doomed” articles.
I am answering the call.

WTF?
Like this website?
No
and to think one side claims this site is overrun by the other side when it was the complete opposite back during 2006-2008. this is absolutely the worst generation for gaming i've seen in all my 30 plus years of gaming.
anyone know a news gaming site i can go to that doesnt have this crap on it?
The only issue i see with the PS Vita is that Sony should of added Cell phone Software and MAYBE partnered with a Cellular Carrier for better promotion.
PSVita has 3G Cell Phone capabilities but you gotta jump through hoops to get it to work and the App drains the battery.
PSVita with a more EFFICIENT cell phone software Day 1 would of really helped. I always wanted Cell Phone capabilities on the PSP and was happy to see 3G on the PSvita.
Other than that the PSVita is a great portable that is NOT Doomed.
Seems like puclicity like this just puts ideas in peoples heads that a console is failing more than it actually is (or isn't at all), I mean I know the Vita isn't doing great at the moment, but I fully intend to buy one once I get enough money together, there are a lot of forthcoming games I'm looking forward to on it.
lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
80% of articles are "vita is doomed" articles....pay attention next time
At launch there was nothing appealing for the 3ds... 3d remakes of games, random nintendo Ip that looked like an app, and pilotwings
The vita, although having a lot of games, it did not appeal to everyone,especially the japanese, since most launch titles were western geared
However after 6 months, nitendo dropped the price, and then started launching multiple unique games, like mario 3d, etc
The vita has not even started its sixth month yet... its not a doomed system at all... like the 3ds it needs its time to strech its wings
My question is why people became so bitchy, and complain a company is dead not even a year after a new system launches
Remember the abysmal ds and psp launches? Couple years later, those systems had multiple great games
People need to stop with these doomed articles... they are becoming repetitive spewing the same crap over and over again

Doom
I actually believe that the DS' success was a surprise even to Nintendo and that they previously only wanted to release the DS to cater to a different market and then release a new Gameboy a few years later. Touch screen gamin was a massive risk and it was looked at like a gimmick when it first came out. The main reason the DS was succesful was that games like Brain Training, Cooking Mama, Professsor Layton came out on the DS.
The DS new design also help with the success because no respectable adult would hold onto an ugly plastic looking device like the original design and the PSP showed everyone how to make a cool looking device.
After 17 years of launching 3 successful home consoles(over300million consoles sold) and 2 portables(77millions psp) there are still so many idiots out there who still underestimate the power of playstation.
Mark my word,Vita will be a success.
you feel me?
Three consoles have sold more than 300 million units in less than twenty years, and two handhelds have contributed almost another 80 million units. But all we hear is "Doom."
Sony posts lower than expected numbers, and suddenly they're losing money on the PS3 and PSP? No, read carefully, morons: not meeting projected performance isn't definitively the same as losing money. And for Sony to be losing money on the PSP, of all things, they'd virtually have to be BUYING the things back from people.
The Vita's 40+ library of titles is really "no gaems." The Last Guardian is canceled because the trademark on the name expired. PS All Stars and LBP Karting are shameless clones and nothing more. Heavy Rain is one big QTE, and Beyond will follow suit. The Last of Us is just more Uncharted. Uncharted isn't even a game, but a movie you can "beat" by pressing X. Sony can't afford to make a PS4.
Never in all my life have I seen so much blatant ignorance surrounding one company, spewed forth by people whose only interest seems to be in wishing said company burns a slow death. This site, supposedly overrun with PS3 fanboys, is inundated with negative, STUPID articles, half a dozen repeats of the same rumor or purposely misinterpreted tidbit, all targeting one company.
And this time next year, when the PS4 is ramping up for launch, it'll be the same crap all over again, as if the collective consciousness of the internet and gaming media in general has learned nothing.
I have little hope that it will.
Yet we see it from you when it comes to Microsoft. Funny how that works.
Why don't people just enjoy the things they have instead of constantly defending one company while at the same time attacking the competition? Is this really what it's come down to, schoolyard tantrums where we keep arguing back and forth "my Dad is tougher than your Dad"?
Here are the facts, Vita isn't doing as well as Sony would have hoped. The market has also shifted where customers have so many products now to choose from to play games on, whether they are dedicated gaming products or not. That doesn't mean it's a bad product. Great products struggle all the time so why are so many people venting out in so much anger to the point of calling others morons? Seems to me the real issue are closet fanboys who deep down know it's not doing well so they take it out on anyone who's negative instead of focusing on how Sony can improve it.
As for the conspiracy theories against Sony is laughable. We see negative topics about how the Wii U will fail just like we saw with the original Wii. We are also seeing it with the new Ouya system. Besides, how can one person claim there is so much negativity when he himself is far more negative than most members here. Read anything the above poster says about products outside of Sony. Most times it's all negative.
DOOM!
The WiiU is also doomed before it's even out according to these "journalists"!
I use N4G for news not biased fanboy opinions and false information.

I'm just purely speaking about sales, not on hardware or which is better, so calm down before you agree or disagree...
The people crying failure on these consoles need to realise while its possible they could fail, the chances of it happening are VERY slim.
Just give Vita some time naysayers. Then you won't look like fools when your proven wrong.
The Vita is here to stay so get use to it.
Everyday I wakeup and go online there's a bloody dozen new ones.
