What went wrong?
>>340761842
no mainstream appeal, 3DS got Monster Hunster, and overpriced storage
>>340761842
Still better than the 3DS.
>>340761842
Fucking 40 dollars for a 16 gb memory card.
Hope you got a case for it otherwise it's not long for this world.
>>340761842
nothing, im enjoying the odensphere remake on it right now
>>340761842
I got one on Black Friday of 2014, still haven't opened it.
>>340761987
This sounds about right.
Looking at the Vita's launch day lineup, it might just be the best of all time, so I wouldn't say initial games were an issue.
The 3DS price cut around that time was likely the last nail.
so I should probably buy powerstone 1&2 and megaman legends 2 since they're on sale huh
>>340761842
Nothing, I think its fine for people who enjoy a variety of videogames.
But that wasn't the response you want is it?
You want to bandwagon and spout memes while adding unsupported inflammatory responses to get another negative thread going because you are insecure about yourself and your hobbies.
Get a life autist.

OP here
I actually own a Vita and I found myself disappointed with it.
>>340764365
It doesn't even have that many VNs localized. I would say it has the most dungeon crawlers, but all around, has a good mix of genres
The only console I've actually thrown into the trash
You guys told me that OLED couldn't get burn-in and it did
>>340764415
That's nice. Why the fuck should anyone care what you like or prefer? You're a nobody, and making repetitive threads won't change that.
Why does being disappointed with it warrant a thread without any actual responses or discussion? You made this because you have something against it. What's your PSN? I can add you.
would PS1 / PS2 emulation ever be possible on the vita?
If so I want 1

How can this be fun? Does Nintendo pay you?
>>340761842
Almost no variety compared to the PSP.
I had more fun playing PSP games on my Vita than Vita games.
>>340764843
I don't really care honestly. You're a disappointment already by using generic anime faces. Social autists make this bored unbearable at times. There should be public cullings.

I'm not mad at all, you are just a cunt. Its a situation where no one listens to you in person so you need anonymity to get attention. I pity you, if just a little, that you live such a sad existence
>>340765190
What variety is it lacking?
>>340762053
There's actually a lot more games on the 3DS I'm interested in, and I can even read Nip, I'm just not a fan of fanservice games, so a large portion of the Vita's library doesn't appeal to me. Still, Vita has some good games, though all I've got right now are Persona 4 (which I regret buying) Dragon's Crown, Muramasa, and Odin Sphere. Will get Cyber Sleuth if the Japanese version ever drops in price since the English localization is trash.
Its not that bad DESU. Then again I was a shitty child who bought an N-Gage when it came out...
>>340765297
Woah, those joysticks are solid. Its the best portable stick to date.
>>340761842
the only reason I didn't buy one was because memory card prices and no TV output
>>340761842
No games, considering how the 3DS has every genre represented, the Vita in comparison has barely any games beyond a few indie games and visual novels.
Anyone who's a true handheld gamer would hate the Vita because it doesn't offer any games at all as a handhed.
>>340761842
Lack of quality games, Vita Memory Cards in general, and lack of western support sans indies.
Still hasn't stopped me before since the main appeal of the system is portability.
>>340764710
It can emulate PS1. Hell it could do the whole PS1 library via PS3 Remoteplayif it wasn't so shit.
>>340763390
Neither of those things go on sale often so yeah you should if you want to play them.
>>340765457
What 3DS games are you interested in?
Honestly, I have trouble finding good games on it because most of it is poorly made or just kiddy shit. The last time I enjoyed a game on it was Revelations and a bit of Monster Hunter, otherwise, just a slew of budget titles and dissapointments.
>>340765642
Fuck that
Shits worth it just for Risk of Rain and Downwell
Also I doubt the 3DS has any FPS games and at least Vita has Killzone which is awesome
>>340765530
3DS circle pad and C-stick are far better designed for handhelds than the shitty thoughtless analog sticks that break.
>>340765642
The 3DS doesnt have a good FPS or an open world game. That alone is more genre coverage than the 3DS.
>>340765692
thanks
>>340765810
Hahaha, that's hilarious. Yeah totally, a slippery thumb pad without grips that literally peels is made well. I'm pretty sure its made of recycled plastic too.
I love how Smash broke so many sticks, the 3DS sucks with action games because of how poorly the user controls are.
>>340765820
It has Moon chronicles and Lego Cities. Both are great FPS and Open world games.
>>340765810
Yet they released Sm4sh and that ended up fucking over many 3DS owners.
Don't even get me started on that nub.
>>340765810
literally never heard about anyone's vita stick breaking.
meanwhile seen it happen a ton on 3ds, especially from Smash
>>340766037
So a shitty indie fps port, and a downgraded Wii U port with the draw distance of an office corridor? Wow. Really digging deep there.
>>340761842
Marketing+no MH+no GTA+Memory cards
Anyway, the memory card isn't a big problem because you can save up your games in your computer, PS3 or PS4.
>>340766152
and yet the Vita has no open world games or FPS games.
No Monster Hunter
a real shame, I hate playing it on 3DS
It appeals to the moeshit otakus in Japan and thats pretty much why its DOA here. I have one and am enjoying the few games it gets like Odinsphere but even the so called "great" games like Digimon or DT2 are abysmal at best. The monhun clones are okay distractions but I want MH not this copy.
>>340765679
>Vita Memory Cards
This. This is the one thing I hate about it. Overpriced storage, and you can only have one account per card.
>>340765717
Well, the 3DS games I have are:
Dragon Quest VII and VIII
OOT 3D
Mario Kart 7
SMT IV and IV Final
Mario and Luigi: Dream Team and Paper Jam
And I think I might be forgetting a couple games. Right now for Vita all I'm interested in aside from the games I already have are Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, maybe Digimon World: Next Order, possibly Tales of Hearts R (the DS version was fine, but the only thing I really liked about it was the combat), and if I like the Trails in the Sky games, I might buy the Evo versions eventually. Yomawari could be fun, but it doesn't sound worth full price.
>>340765810
>circle pad

>Its becasu u ahmarucans wieldu da cantrahs atoo hadu
Fucking nips. I've pirated everything on the broken 3DS since.
>>340764710
You can play PS1 games on PSP/VITA, and PS2 games via remote play with a PS4 (only on Vita).
Why is it always 3DS owners? I don't get it. What amount of insecurity do you need to boast about a shitty Nintendo portable that you constantly need reassurance by bashing the competition?
Christ, if you truly disliked the console, you would move on instead of bringing it up and lying about it all the time. Nintendo fans on /v/ are so fucking weird and brain damaged.
>>340766334
The memory card are expensive because they're faster than standard SD cards and more secure.
>>340766281
Gravity Rush and Killzone?
>>340764235
The way this shelf is organized triggers me so hard.
>>340761842
No DJ Max game.Teknica Tune is trash
>>340766321
I don't think you know what abysmal even means. The games you mentioned have all around positive reception.
>>340761842
Sony didn't stick with it after the initial hump, unlike Nintendo. They were in full contingency mode around that time, so the Vita went to the chopping block development-wise almost immediately after they didn't get the results they wanted. If they really cared about it (and had the money to do so), they would have stuck it out like Nintendo did with the 3DS and the Vita would probably be in a better position today, even with the overpriced memory cards.
Also, ports to other platforms are driving the final nail in the Vita coffin these days, especially of all the noteworthy games. No one, even mild weebs or sony diehards, are gonna spend $300+ just to play something like Danganronpa or Tearaway when both of those and many others are now either on the PS4 or PC. Out of the few titles I own, only two haven't been ported to some other console and only one of those could be considered worth playing if you aren't a Jap-addled weeb.
Now outside of a few non-ported titles it's probably pointless to get a Vita unless you want to play DRPG's, some VN's, and those indie games that you already own on a PC or another console.
>>340766352
i replaced my c-stick with old psp nub half a year ago, its so much better... it doesnt move around though, just pressure sensitive
>>340766438
Vita is literally the worst handheld ever made, what's wrong with stating the truth on why it's so shit?
/v/ hates the Vita for a reason and it's completely irredeemable shit while the 3DS is better than the DS in every single way. This is why everyone on /v/ have a 3DS, it simply has the best games this gen.
>>340766472
>they're faster than standard SD cards
Source?
They're not very reliable, especially the 32-64 GB.
>>340766334
Oh okay. So you like old ports then.
Fyi the mario and luigi games fucking suck ass. Good luck.
SMT4 is fun, probably the only good RPG on the console imo.
>>340761842
The same reason the WiiU failed, bad marketing. Had nothing to do with it not having games or being expensive.
>>340766472
They're not faster than standard memory cards. They're around Class 4 or Class 6, I can't remember.
>>340766728
>3DS is better than the DS
Except the library.
>>340766728
>3DS is better than the DS in every single way
Battery life
the DSLite and DSi's had amazing battery life, another reason why I got the VitaTV over a Vita, because its battery life is barely one hour better than my 3DS
>>340766639
Why not spend it for portability or cheaper games? I dont see the interest changing in any case. People have been drilling nails in the coffin for 4 years and it gets more games than ever.
And no, it still has exclusives.
>>340766750
I've never played the Vanillaware games before, and apparently the best edition of Muramasa is on the Vita. Would be nice if it did have more actual exclusives though.
I've only played Superstar Saga so far, but it was fun, looking forward tot he rest of the series.
>>340766728
>the 3DS is better than the DS in every single way
Sure...
>>340766852
I'm a vita fag, but you are retarded. 90% of the DS library was forgettable, and the lack of an Advance Wars game is why I never fell in love with my 3ds. I guess F/E is fine, but fuck man. FUCK!
How do I get a custom wallpaper like I see in those vita threads?
>>340766728
There are much worse handhelds.
What truth? According to what?
The 3DS is more shit if not just as shit. Seriously, what the fuck kind of kids browse /v/ that think every mediocre title that lands on it is gold? Its like those Final Fantasy Explorers apologists.
>>340766706
Why is the gap in my hinge so big
>>340767164
FF Explorers is a great game, I guess Vitafags will never play good games like that with their dead handheld.
>>340764843
The 3DS is dead
A failure compared to the DS
Hacked and finished
have fun shilling your dead system, m8
>>340767164
Alright i'll bite, whats wrong with FFE?
>>340767309
>3DS is dead
I'm an idiort but what? 3DS still gets games.
>>340767072
Why do people like Fire Emblem games? People tell me they were better pre 3DS but it literally has nothing to it.
Forgettable music, really bad 'strategy', few classes, pairing was easy and dumb, and just a ton of forced romance and dumb dialogue with a plot written by teenagers.
Is it the waifus? Even budget wise, they seem to be really constrained, everything looks bland, even the sprite work.
>>340767283
We played better games like Sould Sacrifice: Delta, Freedom Wars and God Eater.
>>340767193
Low quality hardware. It's just the luck of the draw.

Final Fantasy isn't japanese, right?
>>340767283
I have a 3DS you retarded shit stain.
>>340767338
Everything. Pacing, controls, the jobs were mostly shit, monster AI, it was dead after a month, no air juggling, no great bosses, it looks like shit, and it was a rushed fan service game. Funny enough, people criticized Raganrok Odyssey, whereas it was a much better FF explorers with proper character building and great controls.
>>340761842
I don't know what you're on about OP.
But I got exactly what I wanted.
A Disgaea 4 on handheld, Killzone merc which surprisingly turned out be entertaining(expected a trash tier fps), P4G, Ninja Gaiden since I never played those before on my old console, Trails of cold steel(played Sky before on psp), Muramasa, Dragons Crown, DT2(got me into dungeon crawling again) and many more.
For me it was more than worth it but I guess it depends on the games people are looking for.
>>340767594
SS is far from that. You're just an idiot.
>>340767439
>Why do people like Fire Emblem games?
You have to ask? I do agree they are really shit, Disgaea is better in almost every way. It's a terrible "Strategy" game.
This, Stella Glow, 7th Dragon and 2 other game are the only games worth owning.
Unlike the vita which at least has good visual novels.
>>340767519
Wow mine isnt that loose when you wobble the screen but it does move back and forth slightly
>>340767629
But more games are still coming out and being localized. Ace Attorney, Dragon Quest, SMT, Mon Hun, and more.
Now, the quality of the localizations is up for debate, but they're still coming over.
>>340767697
The pacing is fine, its controls are fantastic, the jobs and skills were customizable as fuck, I don't think any game has ever had good monster Ai, it was dead after a month indeed it is short
>air juggling
what is this DMC?
>no great bosses
this is as subjective as the rest I loved fighting shiva
It does look like shit.
>>340767519
Mine wobbles too. I remember the forced gyro controls in OOT would move with the screen when I was on a bus. So annoying.
My friend had one of those self scratching screens.
>>340767468
>Freedom Wars
I can't get past the tutorial. The next logical step seems to be requesting special operations but when I tried the first one on the list I couldn't even get like 5 steps towards the enemies without getting killed. Besides that the online play actually worked but it doesn't seem like progressing in the story. Am I missing something?
>>340767519
Can't you return it to moment you notice this shit? I mean we all agree the 3ds is a shit piece of hardware with a handful of decent exclusives. I don't think a single person out there actually likes playing on the 3ds.
>>340767283
Or you can own both? I play my Vita way more than my 3ds anyway.
>>340767853
DQ and AA have/get mobile ports though.
>>340767986
Check requests, you may have missed a simple one like view the menu.
>>340768032
I "use" my vita more than my 3ds. But it's mostly visual novels and ps4 remote play. 3ds is pretty bad hardware wise. It's a cheap piece of plastic.
>>340768057
That doesn't mean that they're not being made for the 3DS. Does Odin's Sphere being out for the PS4 mean that it's not out for the Vita and PS3?
>>340766472
>faster than standard SD cards and more secure
This is a lie. And I've had an 8gb card die on me that I had to send in for repairs. So they're not more reliable either.
>>340767801
>>340767986
Get better at solo or hop online where people just want to show off their overpowered gear and bikinis. It won't seem like your progressing through the story but that doesn't matter because the story goes nowhere.
>>340768172
No, but the quality of hardware on the 3DS is a hindrance I believe.
>>340768005
Considering sending mine to nintendo for repairs cause I feel like this gap is too big
>>340768191
Im pretty sure you cant send memory cards in for repair. Do you have proof of this?
The vita's oled screen is god for playing old ps1/ps2/psp sprite games. Everything is soo vibrant. 3ds from that era should never be played again though.
>>340768157
I have a bunch of psp and Vita games so its actually "play."
>>340766947
Portability I'll give you but...
>Cheaper Games
If they are any of the ports I mentioned, especially PC ports, none of the games unless you bought used (not even in that case for a few, I know both DR's used are pricier than their respective PC counter parts. TiTS is also cheaper on PC as well.), are going to be cheaper than that Steam game, especially on sale.
The Vita's a decent handheld on its own, but in the grand scheme on things, it loses a lot of its appeal outside of portability and being the default Japanese console. Granted, that is what +90% of its fanbase wants and craves, so I can't argue with that and I should have thought about that before I bought it. Just realize that the few decent titles on PSN and Physical aren't enough to get most people over, especially these days where the prevailing stereotype of Vita games (on /v/ at least) is lazy, grindy, censorsed (yet still sexually charged) weebshit made for shut-in losers who don't leave the house to begin with.
>>340767081
Drag one of those little bubble icons until the sorting menu comes up. There should be a little pic icon in the top right corner where you can set something up.
>>340768005
>>340768276
Do yourself a favor and do that. I know from experience the n3dses were shit, at least most of the batches were
I think a few were lucky and got firm hinges, but most are like this which they shouldn't be at all
>>340768172
>Does Odin's Sphere being out for the PS4 mean that it's not out for the Vita and PS3?
It's funny because I few days ago a pretty salty guy was saying that P5 was a PS4 exlusive game because the PS3 version was "inferior".
There are people like him, that can't accept the fact that some people will play the same game in other system.
>>340768409
>Stereotype from videogames
Oh boy, you really are a moron. So the stereotype for Xbox gamers are footballs fans and Nintendo portable fat man babies?
They promised a PS3 but portable and they clearly couldnt make it true, not because it was less powerful than the PS3 (which it is) but because they couldn't convince big studios such as Rockstar to develop a full GTA game for the console so in the end it never got the games they promised it would get
As for today i only use it to play PS1 games and a few Vita ones, but not interested in future Vita games anymore, just in PS1 games.
>>340768409
>grindy, censorsed (yet still sexually charged) weebshit made for shut-in losers who don't leave the house to begin with.
I hope the vita never changes.

Why don't you just watch hentai? If I had the choice between a mediocre game with a bit of sex appeal and just porn, I'd pick the porn. If the game was great, sure, I'd go with the game but most of them aren't.
>>340768779
3ds stuff get's censored and have ever worse translations.
>>340768891
>and have ever worse translations.
Code of Princess
>>340768891
So its worse? right.
>>340768876
You don't fall in love with the girls in porn, you only get these lewd images after hours of interacting with the girl and slowly building trust to the point where she lets you take up skirt shots, if you try without building that trust, she will get mad and run away. It's very interactive, it's not just taking pics of girls panties, you got to earn them.
>>340768850
If you're at the beginning of the game random drops you pick up from defeated enemies may be better than your equipped gear. Crafting better gear is only really a thing when you're closer to end game and is a long arduous process involving rng and save scumming.
>>340768994
He means they are worse ala treehouse fire emblem translation and censorship.

It isn't that long and difficult if you play online with korean/japanese players, I used to win a shitload of things thanks to them.
