The recent announcement of the Nintendo 2DS means it's game over for the PlayStation Vita.
Castlevania’s twilight years were some of its best, but they were not enough to avert the dramatic end of the series as we knew and loved it.
Someone should fire to the lowest pit the guy on Konami that thought mobile gaming was the future and destroyed MGS, Castlevania and other franchises in the way.
Dan Rizzo says "So this is where we’re at with Nintendo and their continuous colloquy of tedious arguments against emulation. It’s funny how a company that’s so against open-source emulation, uses it to sell commercial products such as the NES and SNES Classic Mini, but release a minimal quantity to drum-up all the hype behind it, only to leave a majority of its fanbase disappointed when struggling to acquire the now collector’s piece."
someone made a good point that older music, movies, and books are far more easier to get access to than games. I think the industry needs to make a change. It's crazy that so much is gone now and I'm willing to pay for the games, but there's literally no way to get them now.
As of late March 2023, it will no longer be possible to make purchases in Nintendo eShop for the Wii U system and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. It will also no longer be possible to download free content, including game demos.
No surprise, but a sad day for gaming with hundreds of exclusive titles to be lost forever
it's sad that no one is actually outraged by that piece of news ut it's even worse to Sony because Nintendo acknowledges that going forward they would only release classic content thru the Nintendo online membership.
Basically, they are killing the store to create value for Switch and the Nintendo membership.
One thing this article doesn't factor in is the possibility the remote play feature will have on sales of the Vita. It is risky but the potential pay off for Sony could be huge (if advertised correctly)
edit: I do personally think this will be the last handheld we see from Sony but only because I see them, in a few years, moving to a tablet or phones that could do the same/similar functions via Gaikai. This market is shrinking and these systems are being sold at a lower price (every time) to compensate the effect of the mobile market. The only logical move for Sony is to broaden the install base via Gaikai and tablets/phones
the author needs to stop misquoting me, ill sue! its hasta la vista baby.
This article's title confuses and infuriates me!
I expect at least 50 comments in 20 min
This isn't news. It's a fanyboy rant. I'd prefer an objective reporting of the 2DS rather than trying to put another system down.
