If the current year is beyond 1999 or your age is in double digits, you should not care about handheld video games.

The Vita deservedly failed because most people who could afford one did not want one, and the lack of desire has nothing to do with its library. (It also has nothing to do with memory card prices - hopefully you weren't thinking that like an idiot).
>>
expensive memory card, lack of strong support and smartphones games

It only had weeb games.

No console can thrive with only weeb games.

Sony completely gave up on supporting and marketing it after the first 6 months of its lifespan.
Almost none of the games utilize the hardware. It's mostly mobage-tier shit.

That's exactly what the vita is thriving on right now. If it wasn't for weeb games, the vita would be dead.

Nobody likes weeb games at all, all handhelds with an exclusively japanese library has failed.

Why is the Vita failing a surprise?

Haven't looked back since.

Don't get me wrong, there are kids that have a Vita, but they are a minority. Even in Japan, the 3DS is mostly a kids machine. Capcom made MH Stories for them basically. If you go to Japan today, you will only see Otaku or kids with 3DS consoles.
You know how Yokkai Watch got super popular? it was advertised everywhere, even at this McDonalds.

Because nintendo is holding back and destroying the industry. Just imagine how good monster hunter would look on the psvita.

Right now it's a vanillaware machine for me and I'm ok with that.
>>
>>342258932
Probably about the same, Capcom made it on the 3DS to reuse assets and lower development costs because they are extremely cheap, and Monster Hunter isn't really a game of labor, but rather, one that will sell because of brand power. The next console iteration MH game will likely look like shit too.

The future of handhelds belongs to the Chinese. The market is becoming too niche because of phone gaming, and soon it will only be profitable for small manufacturers making systems like the JXD S7800 and the GPD Win, which use android and windows respectively and therefore require no developer support. I foresee handheld gaming in the future consisting mostly of emulators, indieshit, and whatever else has low enough requirements to run on an android or handheld windows machine.

The Vita really is the ultimate handheld game console, but unfortunately the market is shrinking and Nintendo is going to be the last one standing before they too peter out. Most people are just too obsessed with their phones to carry around a separate device for gaming, even if the phone experience is inferior in every way.

No, the 3DS mainly appeals to kids. I actually went into a local play lounge for God Eater 2 and it was all teenagers and up.

The 3DS seemingly had more creepy dudes use one, those awkward dudes that masturbate to Pokemon and hell, even Metabots is now appealing to the more weird audience. You do relize stuff like Senran Kagura was first on the 3DS?

>>342260197
Children, mostly. The console is often bought again because it breaks pretty easily. I recall the hostel I was staying in had 2 kids, both of which were on their third or second 3DS console. I guess they first bought the original.

Biggest problem with 3DS has been wear and tear on the circle pad. Games like Smash and MonHun have caused some to break, I replaced mine midway through playing HM4. Hinges are a lot sturdier than the DSLites and DSi models.

I think two reasons why it didn't do so hot:

>Proprietary Memory
Sony made the memory sticks cost as much as new games, compared to normal sticks

>No Monhun
Monster Hunter switched to Nintendo near the time the Vita came out. Monster Hunter games on PSP were popular enough for people to buy the PSP. Japan loved PSP MonHun, so the PSP did well (and in turn other developers put games on the PSP)
>>
>>342261317
This is true, at least on the Internet front. Similar to the Wii U, a lot of people made up rumors and bullshit for some reason. I don't think that accounts for a lot, but I've met quite a few people that are "against the console" despite knowing nothing of it, never using one, or even knowing that the console takes carts. Crazy negative perception to the extent of someone saying "I would never buy one" and the reasoning being non-existent.

>>342261571
Monster Hunter isn't popular in the West, and its doing well in Japan for having less brand power.

It really isn't though. They "shifted" it because of the dispute and the fact that the 3DS was already out.

Most of that list is out or multiplatform with the PS4/PC.

Someone looking to buy a Vita for particular games may already have an alternative to playing it. I'd rather buy a PS4 or PC version of said game than a Vita version, mainly for support and performance.

Why does that matter? If it's exclusive, yeah that's a good point, but because it was made or conceived on the Vita first doesn't mean it's going to be best played on the Vita.

Understandable, but that would mean the Vita games perform poorly to begin with.

>Why does that matter
Lower tier assets, smaller design, designed around portability, simpler controls. Again, what makes you think it won't be more ideal to enjoy on a portable platform from the onset?

You also claim that paying an extra $20 is worth an increased resolution? Most of the games are marginally different in most cases.

Are you telling me stuff like Dragon Quest on the 3DS is pointless when the PS2 version exists? Or Zelda? Or Revelations?

There is often a minimal change in user experience because of it. Look at the Code of Princess Steam port, it still looks like complete shit.

>>342262916
>implying that was me

I own every current gen console/handled except an Xbone, I buy the better version of said game for said console, I don't buy them for shit I can get elsewhere.

They've already done that. Off-screen play with the Vita is nice, but doesn't seem to have the range of the Wii U gamepad.

>>342263180
Most models come with 8gb, which should be enough for 2-3 games at a time, backing up is easy through PC, but it's slow and tedious.

Ok, I'm thinking of picking up a vita slim because I already see a couple of games I would like to play on it.

Out of curiosity, how many physical product games are there? I'm not gonna bother downloading anything except maybe some ps1 game and I don't read moon runes.

If I only play physical games do I need to buy a bigger memory card than comes with the slim?

>>342263360
"better" is a matter of user experience, don't implicate that the Vita version is somehow infinitely worse because it offers different benefits.

>>342257324
Why did the japs get physical Skullgirls and we don't? Lame

>>342263541
just get an 8 or 16gb card. You can back up and transfer games to and from your PC.
>>
>>342263541
If you get physical you don't need a big memory card at all.

Physical games for new releases has been spotty, some have them while some don't.
>>
>>342263541
There's a few digital games, but most of them get Asia releases that you can import. I think the majority of the library is available physically if you are willing to import.

16GB is ideal.

>>342262404
I want to think so, but the reason the phone industry is stagnating is because everyone already has a phone that's good enough to run whatever mobileshit is out there. They're content and complacent, and the phone industry is now moving into a replacement market the way computers have been for at least a decade.

It's possible that Nintendo and Sony could really shake things up by doing an aggressive spearhead back into the handheld market, but I think Sony is less likely to, which hurts me to say because I like the PSP and Vita a lot more than the DS and 3DS.
>>
>>342263347
>For what?
Vita, for example, is not marketed or handled well in the west. It's like support for it will drop before the same support for the same game would on PC or PS4 (DLC, updates, etc).

>Understandable, but that would mean the Vita games perform poorly to begin with.
Not poorly, but that they just run better on better hardware.

>Again, what makes you think it won't be more ideal to enjoy on a portable platform from the onset?
Personally if someone wants said game for the portability, more power to them, but that the game(s) are also available on another platform isn't a strong selling point to get someone to buy something if they have an alternative.

I have a thing about the time of releases. If the game is a few to several years old and is being ported, it doesn't really seem to matter at that point. Your examples, Dragon Quest on 3DS is worth it, even as someone who owns and beat both VII and VIII on PS1 and PS2, I'm still getting the 3DS remakes for their added features.

CoP was out for a few years on 3DS and yes, the port was handled like shit, I agree.

Yeah kinda sucks it's on life support. It's the best handheld ever made and i love mine. I guess Kids these days would rather play low quality shitty cash grab free to play games with terrible controls on their phones.
>>
>>342260727
I really don't like the 3DS's form factor. If I get another Nintendo handheld it will probably be a 2DS, because it's cheap and no-one is making exclusives for the New 3DS anyway. The 2DS reminds me more of the Gameboy which is kind of cool.
>>
>>342263442

Actually a ground up remake of a PSX game which I never played, and an enhanced port of a PS2 game I never played. I only got into the DQ series last year. I've also got Mario Kart 7, SMT IV and IV Final, Kirby Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot, Dream Team, Paper Jam, OOT 3D, Smash Bros, and some other games I'm forgetting.

>>342264208
The games are objectively the best of their time
>>
>>342263347
Meant to emphasize a bit more on time between a game released and a port.

Most titles being announced for Vita are also getting PS4 ports day-one or on PC shortly after (having already confirmed release), yeah, I'm probably gonna spend that $20 more so I can play it on the PS4 or PC, possible mods in case of the later, and know that the success of the PS4 will keep support for the game going for a few more years, when the Vita support could drop within the next couple.
>>
>>342264437
Most multiplats and a few exclusives is far better than the literal 0 games that the 3ds is getting
>>
>>342264071
Since when has that happened? Games receive patches still. Do you have evidence of a Vita game no receiving patches?

There's an alternative to a lot of things. You can emulate most consoles without buying a lot of games or consoles. Why is emulating a DS more ideal?

Again, you are being a hypocrite when it comes to the 3DS if you are in favor of the 3DS getting an age old port, versus the Vita getting multiplatform releases.

I'm an idort myself, probably moreso than you, and I tend to get portable games on a portable. Why aren't you just emulating the DQ games that perform infinitely better and look a lot better on PC then? The content added is minuscule at best.

What game needs support beyond its release?
Mods are never a promise or always possible.
This is all just ifs in your case, to support an otherwise weak argument. The 3DS ports are okay because they waited longer, that's what your reasoning is. Which is completely bullshit and promoting a double standard.

I sold mine for a few reasons

>No CFW
>No big name games
>No new Elder Scrolls
>No new GTA:SA Stories
>No new Twisted Metal
>90% of games are indie/anime games


When I did have it, the library was either nothing but indie/anime games, or flash games I could play on my phone

And I know, I know, the reasoning behind no big name games is because developers didn't want anything to do with the Vita after the insane amount of pirating that happened on the original PSP, real shame, could of been awesome to have for emulation, but again, no CFW.

Dude, Kirby is fucking boring and poorly made. If you get anything past the SNES ones, you're an idiot. Dream Team and Paper Jam are disgustingly bad. I've played both but only beat Dream Team because I actually paid for it.

Fuck you, you have a negative perception of the Vita from the onset because of stupid shit, haven't even said what games you even tried, and assume I play garbage like Neptunia. Yeah nice "superior stance" while playing Nintendo garbage.

Yeah, why buy anything at all? Why not just wait for emulation for everything!

>>342264938
Any ports that waited a few years between their original release and new release are fine, I was using the example given to distinguish that. I think Gravity Rush on the PS4 is great and I recommend anyone with a Vita to get Persona 4 Golden on Vita over the PS2 version if they've never played either.

Dragon Quest is a strong example of being a hypocrite in your stance, and you actively ignore it. Exactly, if you are in support of the best experience, you would have to agree with me.

That's called a conditional standard, imposed by you. This should not be the case with your previous assumptions.

This. Memory cards are expensive as fuck, and because there's not a ton of physical games being released (due to low demand due to a low userbase), most people either have to import for physocal copies (if there are any) or buy digitally (which can fill up that memory card quickly).

I'm not saying the games are unplayable or bad or anything like that, but there's nothing that I consider good. You probably have lots of better games left to play on PSP, DS, other handhelds, consoles, PC, etc. "Decent" titles aren't good enough; the Vita needs some sort of killer app before it's worth buying.

It's pretty far in development actually, and 3DS games are technically poor so perform pretty great.

So basically, your opinion is some sort of universal means to the quality of every title you never played with no intention of ever playing. You need people to tell you something is excellent or amazing, or have strict tastes and need hype to get into something.

We'll see on the first point. Keep in mind that just being able to play the game from start to finish doesn't make an emulator "good". Accuracy is important.

The benefits of emulation over a hacked 3DS are minimal, honestly. The games look like shit either way and I'd rather use the real hardware unless emulation takes impossible leaps forward in the near future.

I think thats a even worse problem if you own a 3DS XL.
Games look pixelated as fuck because they were made for the normal DS screen that is smaller, the volume is WAY TOO FUCKING LOW even when I'm using headphones, and the battery last for like 3~4hours if you play nonstop with max brightness.
The 3D image is also COMPLETE SHIT and useless in literally 99% of the games, and I'm guessing it probably eats the battery even faster.
Also for some reason you cant even message your online friends. What the fuck is up with that?!

All of that could have been forgiven if it at least had a good library like the DS but no, Nintendo fucked up even on that.
I could go on about shit the 3DS lacks, and I wish it wasnt that bad because I had high hopes for it.

Nope, the 3DS hardware is bad enough for immense benefits.

There would be a huge improvement once emulation comes around, and the few worthwhile 3DS games won't even need a 3DS console anymore.

It's the same reason why Oculus and Vive will fail.

AAA titles have grown too costly to create, so to limit them to a single platform that hasn't even taken off yet drives publishers/developers away. On the flipside, it's too costly and convoluted for smaller and indie developers to make good games (system sellers) for it.

Entry price was also too high in the west, which is why only Weeaboo studios felt comfortable to commit to the machine.

If it's any consolation, OP, I predict that the Vita will still be less of a failure than VR.
