>PC gaming hasn't killed console gaming despite the fact that PC gaming can be way more convenient/cheaper since you can do it on your PC that does everything else you use a PC for
>yet somehow smartphones/tablets killed handheld console gaming because smartphones/tablets are convenient in that they allow you to game on a device that has multiple other uses for you
How does that work? Was the PSP/DS audience really so casual that having Angry Birds on their phone killed their desire for a handheld console? Handhelds consoles are cheap, offer a way better gaming experience than smartphones/tablets, and last much longer than a smartphone/tablet does (spending $200 on a Vita that'll last you 5+ years is a much better deal than a $600 iPad people will use for 2-3 years). I don't really think the market for handhelds is dead, they just needed better marketing and more games to appeal to a wider audience this generation.

PC gaming will eventually kill console gaming, we've seen a year on year decline for the last 5 or so years and the pattern is consistent. The reason why handheld gaming was killed so quickly is because how strong, fast and accessible mobile gaming was. It was sold on the basis of value and functionality thus the consumer would naturally have a hard time justifying spending $200 on a standard device that only really did one thing well which was gaming, especially when an alternative with 10 times the power was available, and in theory could do gaming better but never actually did because you can't replace physical buttons.

I'm not saying its a good thing but consoles are on the decline, it's an objective fact. When consoles finally die the gaming industry will literally tank and combust. Also, the vita is a commercial failure due to a variety of reasons but it certainly alive and there it is flourishing in and simultaneously gaining more and more support by the day which is partly because of Sony's expansion into Asia and the fact that Vitas installbase is expanding.

Because most normal people don't sit around on the computer all day. They have things to do, obligations, kids, friends, etc. A phone is way more convenient of a tool and if it can double as a computer, even better. Some also do sit on a computer all day at work and have no desire to do so at home too.

Its definitely NOT the PSP/DS audience that bought tablets/smartphones instead of handhelds. It was the same audience that bought the Wii. Do you remember how fast software attach rate dropped for the Wii after its life cycle? The next best thing came along. Casuals are fickle and NOT dedicated to a specific platform.

Oh trust me, I know that, that's why I'm saying when consoles die the industry will literally take a K.O to the dome piece. Many people don't realize this and are moving in hoards on PC where they end up wilfully downgrading their overall gaming experience and regulating it to things like Mobas or repetitive e-sport shooters.

Sony's Asia venture which is driving the PS4 and Vita into peoples hands is a really smart move, they are allowing both platforms more growth and simultaneously hitting two birds with one stones by building the installbase in Asia thus providing an incentive for third party to actually localize more games in english which ultimately gives more games to people in the west who already own the platform to buy as well. The vita is a slow burner mark my words, it'll be the like the PS3 where not long it'll be impossible to ignore the amount of games it has. Good times ahead.

They're $200 minimum on my Craigslist. Most of them cost more because they're bundled with a bunch of games. I'm sure if the prices are low, it's because of rumors of a PS4K.

Kill yourself, PC gaming is the exact same shit as Mobile gaming.
>>
Allow me to summarize PC as a gaming platform in a single paragraph.

Nickel and dime developers and publishers as often as possible with the dignified tradition of steam sales, unironically support hardware manufactures who contribute nothing to the gaming industry, kill the very platforms that do and sustain healthy creative development, entire studios and quality control within their own ecosystems. Actively participate in destroying, downplaying and ignoring the enormous wealth said platforms have given the industry spanning several decades through a proven model of hardware stability and infrastructure. Continuously over-saturate the market with absolute shovelware that effectively reduces the quality of good quality games across every platform. Beg for and simultaneously demonize the practice of contracted games because manufactures who are actually invested in the industry are able to get shit done by funding and developing them. Demonize publishers who cater to console platforms because without them, they literally don't exist. Embody the most cancerous ideology possible and release it's destructive behaviors on the video game industry and consumers at large by brainwashing them and literally building a platform on the basis of being superior to other people through hardware superiority and wearing what is considered petty behavior being console wars as a fucking badge of honor.


Tell me again why PC gaming isn't the most cancerous platform. I'll wait.
>>
>>340006689
>PC gaming will eventually kill console gaming
PC gamers only believe this because they think console gamers think exactly like they do. While they may be right that the mentality about gaming is changing. The console market has been adapting to that change over the years, and its been a success. Seeing as, consoles are selling faster than they did in previous years.

Look at PSN as an example. People are forced to subscribe to PS+ for online on PS4. But Sony still has people who pay for a PS+ sub for PS3/Vita. They buy digital content across 3 platforms. Nintendo hasn't been adapting to the market, and combined with digital distribution and PS+ subs Sony has made more money than the entirety of Nintendo last fiscal quarter.

The only thing that could fuck Sony/Microsoft in the next years is if they start releasing consoles like smartphones/tablets every 2-3 years. At that point, you might as well buy a PC.

PC gaming and console gaming used to be wholly separate, mutually existing entities.

PC had more technical, complex games with a wealth of genres and constantly pushing new boundaries on ever-evolving technology. Quite often in the 80s and 90s, you needed X NEW CARD to even hope to play some brand new game.

Consoles had simpler arcade games. Both home versions of actual arcade games, and a large focus on shorter core experiences, pushing software as far as they could with limited hardware.

As time went on, consoles kept trying to become more like PCs, but their design only ever resulted in dumbed down, sluggish versions of PC games. Right now, there is so few reasons to own consoles of this generation, either because the games are also on other platforms, or the games are all around shit. Now they're at the point where they're not just trying to be dumbed down PCs, they also trying to be television boxes at the same time. A modern console is a shitty swiss army knife that doesn't do anything well anymore.

Consoles are killing themselves. PC is carrying on as usual.

Related, handhelds are declining by pushing gimmicks like stereoscopic 3D and touch screens rather than making interesting games. At best, they're just Monster Hunter boxes right now.
Tablets are not exactly competing against handhelds; they're their own thing (the home of the youtube generation where kids would rather passively watch someone else have fun instead of having fun themselves) and they're only seen as cannibalizing handhelds because handhelds have shit for games.

PC gaming isn't accessible to laymen. It's a drawn out process, filled with confusing information, and if you don't do your research, you'll get screwed, guaranteed

This isn't going to happen to you if you know what you're doing, but anyone not already into the hobby won't. We can go to logical increments, or /g/, or anywhere and immerse ourselves in memes until we know what we want. But someone used to consoles is gonna think PCs are like consoles.

They're gonna want a whole system, and either buy a prebuilt and be done with it, or discover that there are like 8 parts you need to buy to make a computer, and all the part names sound exactly the same, and have no idea what to do. And they'll either close that tab and shitpost on /v/, or worse, close that tab and buy a prebuilt after all.

And then shitpost on /v/

PC gaming didn't catch on because you need to know more than "which one has games," and mobile gaming did because kids needed a phone eventually.
>>
>>340008648
>Right now, there is so few reasons to own consoles of this generation, either because the games are also on other platforms, or the games are all around shit
A good example of pretentious and obnoxious PC gamer mentality. "If you don't think exactly as I do, you're automatically wrong and own an inferior dumbed down product, with shit games." No console gamer give a shit that a game is another another platform as long as they get to play it. And a consoles adding media features doesn't degrade the experience at all. If anything, most people buy them as all around media hubs for their living room.

The whole PC gamer mentality on this board is an assumption that console gamers SHOULD think exactly as YOU do. Its based on the most cancerous zealot mentality over something that's supposed to be fun.

>>
>>340005964
stationary console can't be fully replaced with PC (i.e. it's generally so much less hassle to boot up the game on console)

Handheld consoles, on the other hand, much less wieldy in terms of convenience, compared to phones (also, there's no pricing comparison - you literally are getting thousands of games on your phone FOR FREE, or just half-a-buck on sale)

>Muh FREE GAMES is not an argument. A hundred thousand turds does not attract anybody to anything.

that's where you are wrong.

>The average smartphone owner downloads zero new apps per month
The average smartphone owner is also using device mostly for just phonecalls/whatsapp, so the representative stats should look like
1. Do you download at least 1 game per month in Appstore/Google Play? (if no - fuck off, if yes - continue answering)
2. Do you own a handheld console?
3. If no - why? (following are the list of reasons)

You will see there both "games are expensive" or "it's underpowered" or "the display is not of good quality" or "i already have one mandatory handheld device (for calls) - can play small games on it and don't need a second one)
>>
Mainly because publishers are deluded and think piracy will kill their company. Deluded is the wrong word. They know it won't hurt them but they also know that people will get their stuff for free and this universally angers the shareholders they report to.

Also they can charge more on console and no one can do anything about it because of console DRM.

Couple these two facts and you'll see that console gaming has much more support for developers than PC gaming thus ensuring that more high budget console games are created than PC or multiplats.

Throw in some disinformation about "the cost of PC gaming" and people's general disinterest and lack of understanding of computers for added effect.

>A hundred thousand turds does not attract anybody to anything.
there are some games that can be good fun (super hexagon/one more line, little inferno, machinarium/botanicula, anomaly korea, puzzle quest, "family feud"/"who wants to be millionaire" type of tv show adaptations etc. ... there are even shooters and TPS/RTS, shiteload of weeb games available for niche audience, i just don't know anything about)

Almost all of those games you listed are several hampered by the input method. Having a touchscreen only makes gaming pretty annoying, even for casuals.

Everyone "needs" a phone, ergo most already have one. No one needs a $800+ computer though, and in most people's minds a "gaming PC" is still incredibly expensive, and assembling one your own time consuming.

I doubt consoles survive the next decade though. The rise of e-sports, even if the games aren't graphically demanding, is going to kill consoles IMO.

Not tomorrow, but likely within the next 5-10 years.

>>340007348

The console market can and will die. Past experiences does not indicate future performance. Smartphones only became a thing in 2008, and only "went mainstream" just 5 years ago. The current crop of consoles only came out 3 years ago. Of the three main consoles, only the PS4 is selling well and Sony is about to fuck that up by breaking it with the PS4.2.

Everyone has a phone in their pocket now, and the idea of blowing $300 on a console is far less appealing as a result. Phones have enough games to keep people interested, and more importantly don't require a living room setup. They don't even require a TV or consistent power. All game companies have mobile divisions now that see higher returns per investment since a f2p branded mobile game will make more money than a "cinematic" AAA hit.

Time is running out. It's not a question of when consoles will die, but when.

don't forget that every kid has a phone now, and only play mobile games. Consoles are those big heavy things their parents have hooked up in the living room that they occasionally use for netflix'd movies

Let's say you're 10 in 2013, right as the new consoles come out. Your parents have by now (2016) given the 13-year-old you a phone, and that's what you play. Just like all your friends. And none of you care that there's a second PS4 coming out. In five more years you'll be 18 and will probably not give ANY fucks that the PS5 is coming out, because that's for people who were born in the 90s.

You're comparing 2 different markets that appeal to various different kinds of gamers. The people who buy phones to play games aren't the same kinds of people who buy consoles. And the main feature of buying a console is to play games.

Playing games on a console comes first, every other feature is secondary. Playing games on a phone comes secondary, its major function is to communicate, sends texts, browse the internet etc.

Until phone companies extend the life of phones, extend the battery life, and make gaming its major function and all other things secondary It'll continue to be a peon compared to console gaming. Plus, people who make games on phones don't have nearly the push and pull with major publishers and developers.

Kids are less likely than ever to get a handheld when they can just watch their favorite shows and movies on a phone. The fact is that handheld gaming is an aging demographic.

and yet, phone games make more money than most AAA games. COD has peaked, AC peaked, GTA probably peaked, the only games people really care about are Fifa and Madden. Which, at some point, will probably be available on their phones.

who's left? Plenty of people that want games. But they're not the cash machine they used to be.

buyers remorse 2.0.jpg
685 KB, 1912x1958
Friendly reminder that I own a Vita (along with literally every single flagship title for the system) and I can 100% confirm that this thing deserves to be selling like shit.
All of these games are of a low quality and it very clearly shows. The devs clearly never put any thought into games on this system, and instead slapped a cute anime girl on the cover and disregarded creating some good gameplay and a memorable OST.
Compared to the 3DS which quite frankly shits on every system as far as JRPG's go having 10/10's such as Bravely Default, Bravely Second, SMT 4 and Stella Glow. 3DS also has dungeon cralwers, roguelikes, MH and TRPG games on absolute lockdown.

Friendly reminder that asshurt Sony posters got so triggered by this yesterday that they embarrassed themselves by threatening to "have a chat with me" in discord but were too ball less to go through with it and never posted the server or posted again in that thread for that matter.

Bottom line is. The Vita is a garbage system and deserves all of the hate and ridicule it gets. Its library of games is laughable consisting of nothing but legit shovelware.
You want handheld greatness? Buy a 3DS and pirate games on it.
>>
>>340024994
I tend to think PC master race is predestination rather than choice. You can be a console pleb and try to be master race but no matter what, you'll fuck it up somehow or you'll still be in the mindset of a pleb when you buy the parts or the like and still end up with a pleb build and pleb parts. You'll still be trying to "save money" or buy the cheapest thing you can find. You'll still have the mindset of a pleb. Or you'll be some rich fag and want it done for him and then buy it prebuilt and get Alienware or some shit of all things which is constantly satirized in the PC gaming crowd.

And I say this as SURPRISE! A console pleb. I don't like milsims or grand strategy. I don't even understand how mustards can like that shit. I like JRPGs and 2D platformers.

Some people are just plebs, some people like 30 fps over 60. They can't be master race, so there's no point in trying. Just buy a PS4 and buy games used.
>>
>>340005964

That's not what happened at all. PC gaming is more convenient and cheaper if you make budget builds, wait several years, don't care about missing games you like, and pirate your games. Phones are cheaper with no gimmicks. Most people get phone upgrades for free and the games they tend to play are already free. Plus parents would buy handhelds for their kids. Now they can just lend them their phone, which they're going to own even if they don't play games because they need phones to function as adults.

Furthermore, hardware convenience is not what killed handhelds. Handhelds were a time limited product. The people who still use handhelds today are gamers, but before smartphones existed, the kind of person who plays Angry Birds didn't have a choice. They couldn't play that kind of game on their phone, so these people were forced to use handhelds for portable gaming. Now that smartphones exist, they don't have to buy dedicated devices if they're only going to spend ten minutes a day in the breakroom on some shitty game. When smartphones were first released, these people abandoned handhelds. That's why even the 3ds has only a fraction of the ds userbase.

Get some taste in platformers you casual cunt. Rayman is god awful. The music is shit, the platforming is piss easy and I disliked just about everything the game had to offer.

Only Sony autists give a shit about graphics. I hate chibi shit personally, but Bravely Default is still in the top 5 JRPG's I've ever played, and I guarantee I'm more well versed on JRPG's than you my friend.
Gameplay =/= OST. Give me those two and I'll think highly of the game, regardless of if the story or graphics are shit.

Nintendo is more popular than sony, that's really all there is to it. Neptunia can't be more popular than mario. Ys can't be more popular than pokemon. It's not about having a better product. However, being less popular isn't a death sentence. You just use a different strategy to make money. Instead of maximizing units sold and reaching wider audiences, you find a niche. That's why sony still supports the vita even though everyone is convinced it's a failure. Believe it or not, they make money off these things.

The only thing missing is flash support for Android.

When mobile devices get more ram and become more affordable for decent specifications, the market will boom for developers.
Shit even India has smartphones everywhere.

>Too bad Nintendo censors all its games now and the wiiU wont be getting any more. Its such a travesty the vita outlived the wiiU and has better games than it

Good thing I don't own a Wii U...or any home console for that matter. I legit have not owned a console since the PS2 and Gamecube days.

PC is where I do the vast majority of my gaming because unlike most of you, I fucking love indie games. They're some of the few people who make good 2D games, since I'm not into 3D shit.
Witcher? Elder Scrolls? Fallout? Darksouls/Bloodborne? Ubisoft shit? Dragon Age?
None of them do shit for me.

For everything else I use handhelds with 3DS providing the vast majority of fun with the Vita trailing behind.
Seriously I have two Vita 1000's with nothing to buy for them because I actually like my games to have more substance than having a cute girl slapped on the cover.
>>
>>340027628

This first statement is actually horribly incorrect. Nobody wants handhelds, period. Smartphones have completely replaced the portable market and the games fit it more. If you own a 3ds or vita, look at your library. None of your games are f2p shit like angry birds or clash of clans. These are complete games with a lot of effort put into them. So why are they on handheld? Because handhelds aren't handhelds anymore, they're lite consoles.

Believe it or not, console development IS expensive. There will always be lower budget developers. Why do you think there are so many indies on pc? Handhelds serve the same niche. The vita being a console on the go was the smartest thing sony did. They probably didn't intend it as such, but by making the vita a low budget ps4, tons of smaller developers have been able to make good games that help them profit. Were they forced to develop on ps4, these developers may not have been as successful.

There might not be a 3ds successor because nintendo is working with dena on mobile, but there will most certainly be a vita 2. Not because consumers or sony want it, but because developers need it.

It's not at all though. Nintendo's core dramatically shrunk as casual users migrated to mobile. They can try to continue their blue ocean on 3ds, but it doesn't work anymore because people simply stopped caring. Blue ocean is great if you're hot shit, but nobody feels forced to come to nintendo anymore. Kids these days don't care about pokemon or zelda, they care about mobile trash. Unless there's something else to attract these users, nintendo can't expect their core to buy their hardware. That's why nintendo is abandoning hardware and moving in to mobile.

Most handheld games aren't handheld games. Ffs, most of them are even on consoles too. You know that handhelds are console lite and that doesn't work to nintendo's advantage at all since nobody develops for their consoles except them.

Stop pretending that the Shita is doing Sony any favors what so ever. They're making nothing from it. If it was even remotely successful they wouldn't have gave it a 10 second reel in the past 3 E3's and then proceed to not mention it at all.
Shita is doing shit for them. Period.

What about them? The Vita gets ignored in TGS every year too, and Vita gen always shits the bed saying "W-w-w-well maybe next year they'll dedicate more time to the Vita".

Vita is bombing worldwide. It's strongest sales are in Japan, but that's not saying much when those sales are still god awful.

I haven't posted a single thing about any of the home consoles, because non of them interest me in the slightest.
My posts regarding Sony are all specifically aimed at how god awful the Vita is, as seen here >>340026732 and guess what, calling a shit handheld like the Vita out on being shit doesn't suddenly make you a fanboy.

PS4 gets the spotlight in TGS. Any game that is PS4/Vita would have the definitive edition be on the PS4 anyway. There's literally no reason to own a Shita.

mobile gaming is based on free games with microtransactions, handhelds are mostly full priced games.

guess which system kids sill prefer, the one with tons of free games or the one with better games that he can only get a few once in a while?

also kids dont have attention spans, my nephew loves all my games but even them je constantly keeps switching tovother games and generally wants to just fuck around trying out any game he can get.

we just bougĥ him an ipod cause he wants to fill it with games

Basically if you wait and buy a physical copy of God Eater in EU you get a free digital copy of Resurrection.
This applies on both PS4 and vita.
The NA release has a physical release of GE2 with a free copy of resurrection for PS4.
But both GE games for NA vita are digital only.
So you're fucked and have to spend 60 USD either way if you want both games in NA.
