A lot of people were eager to hear news about the PlayStation Vita that this year’s gamescom. Of course, Jim Ryan took the stage to talk about new features that will be coming to the PSV.
While on stage, images flashed up on the screen behind Ryan for Skype and foursquare on the PSV.
The Vita is a well-designed system, albeit one that Sony left for dead as soon as it hit its first bump in the road. If it weren't for a couple negative quirks, it might have even been one of the best handhelds ever made. Unfortunately, those quirks have turned into awful problems as of late, and have only served to tarnish the legacy of what has otherwise been an excellent cult system.
I like the Vita a lot. I actually blame Sony in putting less faith in it than it should
I'll always find it hilarious how even when Sony seemingly abandoned their second handheld, Vita still outsold Wii U which was heavily supported by Nintendo.
Never underestimate the power that third party support can do for a platform.
got the vita although it was dead on arrival. mobile gaming on dedicated machines is deadder than dead. oh wait, the switch is doing stellar, even rivaling the ps4, the xbox and the new xoxbox. ok, let's forget for one second about the absolute market dominator: when was the last time you saw someone playing his or her dedicated machine outside? I can't really remember. what I'm seeing everyday though is that everybody and their little daughter got smartphones when they are on their way to go somewhere.
Vita was and still amazing. Playing uncharted and gravity rush on it was simply epic. Such a shame Sony gave up on it
Team Molecule hack PS Vita with Jailbreak that unlocks Sony handheld permanently. The HENkaku hack arrives 5 years after the launch on PlayStation Vita.
It's a waste of time put on your big-boy pants and buy the games with the crazy flash sales that Sony doess all the time and The Amazing weekly deals. I have such a crazy backlog of video games do to the Sony sales that I'm set
Damn this marks the 3rd time i have bought a ps vita and I never played it. I love modding and mods so I have to indulge. I did own the best games but handheld is just not for me but maybe if the transferring was easy.......but who knows such things only the oracle??????????????
Are you a huge PS Vita fan? If the answer is yes, and you absolutely adore your Playstation Vita then this video is going to be tough for you. The VitaBoys count down the top 5 best PS Vita games that got cancelled.
Skype was almost expected, but I would never have thought Foursquare. Sony is definitely making a more social device than the PSP ever was.
Looks good!
I don't know if the best way to compete with mobile phones is to just ape all the shit they have on them.... :-/
I am liking the new games announced for VITA!
That's hot I guess they want the vita to be the handheld that does everything.
Looks like MS will be making money on every Vita sold then.
Maybe Sony will let MS use bluray for free in their next console to balance things out.
