damn straight

[Stuart5756]

Yeah, if I'd have had 1st comment i was going with a...

Well duhhh.

[user7402931]

come with me if you want to live

[gaffyh]

Surely this should be the case for 100% of gamers on all platforms? Nobody wants worse and less games ever.

[raWfodog]

@ gaffyh

I was gonna say the same the same thing. Who doesn't want better/more games?

[UltimateMaster]

People are saying the 3DS is fin because it's selling a lot, but none of them are appealing to any gamer over the age of 15. IMO.
Vita has a lot of potential, but it needs more great games.
It also need less expensive Memory Cards, a price cut and more buyers.

[3-4-5]

Basically:

* Vita HAS games.

* The games Vita has, are either not that good, or are kind of niche so they only appeal to people who like certain games.

* Some of these Niche games, with a few minor tweaks, could have appealed to a lot more people, thus increasing sales

* More RPG's, More FPS games, more 3D platformers will sell more Vita consoles.

And the other 30% are delusional.

INDIE GAMES WILL SAVE THE WORLD. That's what you're talking about right?

[GdaTyler]

@bothebo

I hope that was sarcasm. I really hope so. I have my reasons. I can't see the Vita succeeding if only $5 - $15 indie games are developed for it. Yes some indies may be a hit but relying on them alone and not new IP's and AAA titles is dumb.

[bothebo]

@GdaTyler
No I totally agree with you. People need to shut up about an Indie oriented library for the Vita because it adds little to no content for the system.

[GdaTyler]

@jcnba28

Delusional is an understatement. Brain dead is more like it.

[MrMister]

Same could be said of the Wii U owners who are content with it's lack of 3rd party support.

[Jreca]

Please, who doesn't want more/better games for ANY console?

[GdaTyler]

You know how many studios Sony has? In my opinion they're doing a pretty shitty job at supporting the Vita with AAA games. I REALLY hope that in those 85 titles they promised, 80 of them aren't indies or ports. If so, I'm worried.

[LordMaim]

What Vita owner voted for crappier/less games?!

[lpsquall]

I'm fine with indie games on the vita but this device is capable of high quality games. I hope we continue to see a good mix of content and not just indie games.

[Goro]

Most indies are a pile of crap, there are some good ones but most are crap, I want some REAL proper AAA games that will last me a few weeks

[fsfsxii]

You mean a day or two at maximum. And you'll never comeback to it.

[Goro]

No i mean they're all shit

[fsfsxii]

I was talking about AAA games.

[Goro]

Ah right, depends what type of AA game really,RPG's would usually last me at least a week and games with good multiplayer i would always come back to every now and then

[Hicken]

Most GAMES are a pile of crap, indie or not.

Dunno why people have this thing about singling out indies as if the publisher-owned studios put out better stuff at any greater frequency.

[gedden7]

Hmm so the ps4 will save the Vita hummm no it wont... ONLY BETTER GAMES WILL..

I stated that and got 15 disagrees... Where are those people now hmmm!!!

Better games is what's needed NOT PS4 remote play.. It will help but not save it...

[Salooh]

Same here. I'm considered a troll in vita news XD

[gedden7]

Now a days people who STATE facts are called trolls and are not respected.. Go figure, I mean look at all these bs articles that people read and believe in...

[fsfsxii]

Well, maybe, because you don't provide solid discussion.
How do you explain 80 vita games coming out this year for the vita??

[Salooh]

@fsfsxii
I'm not saying vita don't have games. It just don't have multiplatform support which means no AAA games and serious exclusives are not enough :)

That's it :P . I'm only buying one of the 80 vita games xD . Which is killzone mercenary , because it's the only serious game i'm interested in ..

[rpd123]

Exactly. I think relying on the PS4 to sell the Vita is pathetic. The Vita should be able to stand on it's own and not be a companion console. Only better games will bring it success. It seems like Sony is phoning it in and they've given up.

[gedden7]

Thats what it really sounds like and or they WELL miss informed... If I was into handheld gaming there's no reason for me to get a Vita...

BUT THERE"S TONS of reasons for me to get a 3DS.. Look at all those great games for that system!!

[Hicken]

I hate using metacritic, but the Vita's got as many games with 85+ on metacritic as the 3DS, and it's a year younger.

No, the PS4 won't "save" the Vita, but this perception that it's lacking in games/quality games sure isn't helping it any.

Folks complain about there not being enough new IPs, then complain about the new IPs they DO bring out. They want Grand Theft on Vita, but complain about such titles with console roots as being "watered-down ports."

No game is good enough. No rate of sale is good enough. It's drowning in misconceptions and willful ignorance and, like the PS3, it'll probably take years for it to escape.

[dcj0524]

Better games are always welcome. If you don't want better games you may be mentally ill. I'm satisfied with the VITA library right now but you should always want something better. an exception is at first i didnt understand why MM were makinh LBP2. I thought the first one was fine and couldn't get better. I was dead wrong and I love my expectations being blown out the water.

[Roper316]

ya I agree they really need to release some games from both existing franchises & new IP's/franchises coupled with a price cut for both the Vita itself & the memory cards.

[Salooh]

Where can i vote ?.

[spok22]

And the other 30 percent.... ?

[TheDivine]

Il take anything at this point. Its bad when there's less than five announced games for the next year. Third party devs won't support it and i can understand why, but i cant understand why Sony isn't supporting it. They released a few good games a year ago and then its been shit ps2 collections. Wtf are the RPGs at? Where's Nocturne, P3 FES, Xenosaga, Shadow Hearts, Type-0, Star Ocean, Valkyrie Profile, Valkyria Chronicles, Kingdom Hearts, Demons Souls exc? Half of those are ports that I would love to rebuy. I don't want to rebuy Ratchet, GOW, Sly, or Jak. They're milked to death. Make a new GOW or don't bother.

At least we may still see FFX one day. Hope the vita version isn't canceled already.
