"Handheld gaming consoles have been around for a more than twenty years now, but will they be around for another twenty, even ten?
With the seemingly overnight invasion from the smartphones, dedicated handheld games consoles are seeing themselves pushed aside in favor of whatever is the latest fashionable item in the mobile market, everything from the iPhones and iPads to the Samsung phones and HTC’s are slowly but surely eating into the market share." - TGC

Tales of Valoris Review: Swallow's Defenders is one of the best creatively designed campaign missions in any RTS gaming experience.
A review for the new tactical RPG Reverse Collapse: Code Name Bakery.
Not as long as Nintendo is around.
Ooooh psychic mumbo jumbo... one handheld in Japan has now sold 8 million (and will do 30 million+ lifetime), if the Vita hits its stride, that'll be another 10 or so. You think someone won't launch another one (in Japan at least) to compete with or replace them in a few years time?
Nope.. if Sony starts to become smart and make the VITA a true PHABLET competition, they'll see a good chunk of market for it.
It's got great hardware that can easily run most apps out there (Photoshop app, word, etc.). This will greatly increase the VITA's lifespan and marketability.
They're just being stubborn because they hold back the VITA for such to differentiate from their less than stellar Sony tablets and phones.
Down the years they could easily BUMP up the RAM and Clockspeeds for the VITA making it still viable.
The VITA's great but Sony either have something up their sleeves for it in the long run or just being stubborn.
can i ask, does anyone really want to play games that are graphic intensive
on their phone?
i have hated and hated games that use touch screen to play them, not to mention it always feels like my iphone is about to overheat.
This is why i love the vita, a portable device that is a gaming machine that does not act as a phone, purely for gaming only
