What happened?
Good things.
western devs abandoned handheld consoles
>>345236251
There wasn't much western support on handhelds aside from indies.
>>345237780
the original psp had games
>>345235986
sony released the best handheld ever
Not 1997.
Not a phone.
Not made by Nintendo.
sony is going bankrupt and they realized that their consoles are the ones that are gonna make a shit ton of cash
>>345239084
After 2008, they gave up, though it gave plenty of time for those that stuck with it to release them.

what do you mean? there was still good games coming out for it after 2008
>>345239879
From the East, not so much on the west.
Vita is a way better platform than PS3/PS4 if only because it is actually backwards compatible.
Obviously more so if you speak Japanese.
>>345239948
The PS3's backwards compatible too
>>345235986
A couple days ago I smashed mine with a hammer and traded it in through a warranty at Best Buy towards my new TV. So it was at least a little useful.
expensive memory cards, (thus)
didn't get monster hunter

>things that didn't happen
>>345242680
Why do you say that? I wanted a new TV, the Vita hadn't been used in months and had accidental damage warranty, I have a friend that helped it go smoothly since I used to work there. Ended up paying $500 for a 55" 4K Samsung, stay mad faggot
Consumer facing:
It was selling poorly in Japan at western launch.
3DS already launched at the same price point and had to do a price cut to move any units.
Memory Card (not included) prices
3G limitations
Hey check out this $180 Amazon bundle with memory card, Black Ops or Asassin's Creed. Miss out? too bad $300 please.
Nintendo: Pokemon for 3DS
Hey here's the PS4 buy a vita so you can use remote play on the toilet.
3G Vita dropped by carriers
We made a cheaper version without the screen we were promoting a year ago.
Here's Vita Game HD on PS3/PS4
We've closed the studios we created to make Vita games
No our CEO said the OLED model is a legacy product causing a 90 billion yen revenue loss.
Failure in the west need not apply when you're a weaboo who plays games just to have fun
The sole problem was that it didn't have Pokemon. Try to prove me wrong.

Please, make your story more elaborate, Danny Ocean
>>345243523
Why play Atelier then
>>345235986
I forgot to charge mine after playing Zero Time Dellemna all night. Now I gotta wait like an asshole instead of playing God Eater with my friend.
>>345244125
You may not be used to reading that many words at once but I thought I would break it down into easier to understand steps, and my point still remains :)
>>345243093
Post receipt
>>345244305
It'sa good jrpg with quite some depth to it
>>345235986
Nothing? Still gets plenty of games and support, didn't do all that hot, but still manages more support than the 3DS somehow. Its a great platform and really enjoyable to me, and I think it has great variety in games on top of steady releases. I think its not for everyone, just like the 3DS isnt for anyone above the age of 13.
>>345235986
nothing
it's a great system
>>345241787
