Gamescom 2011: 10 Reasons The PSVita Will Bomb
Because traditional handheld gaming’s number is up…
1) Poor release timing
Sony’s Gamescom announcement that it’ll be taking care of its native Japan before Europe or the USA obviously means the company will be missing out on a whole lot of Westerners celebrating that obscure holy festival known as Christmas. It’s why the games industry only becomes interesting in September, and it’s why sales will suffer as a result.
2) Price
Considering how hard Nintendo is having to pimp their handheld on television right now, assuring customers it ‘isn’t a DS, but a 3DS’ like Marks & Spencer are manufacturing it or something, £279 just won’t fly. Because, after all, who buys the cheap model?
3) Software price
Arguably the most important factor. Though users will have access to PlayStation Suite software, for the stuff most people will be interested in, we’ll be looking at prices closer to PSP than PS3. In an age where iOS gamers can have their thrills for a few quid, if that. Madness.
4) Split functionality
Selling a device in staggered fashion, as Sony intend to do with 3G and barebones varients of their device, will lead to groups of gamers missing out on the collaberative experiences its protional trailers seem to suggest are its highlight. Do you want to play a game on a system you own that won’t work on your own machine?
5) Mobile friendly software
Does anyone, apart from about twelve ultra hardcore souls, really want to play games such as Uncharted and Resistance on a mobile device any longer? On the bus? Only the most committed won’t question why they aren’t reclined on an armchair somewhere, before a home cinema system and screen size appropriate to the task. Mobile gaming demands bite-sized snippets of fun, not overblown epics.
6) Developers don’t want it
Heavy Iron Studios have already described the Vita’s lauch as a ‘car wreck’ months ahead of time, suggesting that people simply don’t want to carry more than one electrical device around with them at all times. We’re inclined to agree. Surely, if the trend of history has been towards convergence – one device that will perform all mobile entertainment functions. Surely to multiply their number now would be to take a large step backwards?
7) Analyst pressure
Which seems to suggest Sony are being a little hopeful with its current RRP.
8) The time has passed
In short, does anyone realy want to be seen in public shouting at their device as Frobisher Says demands? That stuff might have flown when the DS was a novelty – that window of opportunity in which you won’t look like a person on some kind of register has been and gone.
9) Our thumbs will die
Though including two analogue sticks on a flat device seems impressive given the touch screened competition, we don’t want to grow old with a pair of wizened claws. Fact.
10) There’s a recession on
Petrol prices through the roof, utilities rising by double percentage figures, food continuing to edge upwards. The next home generation of consoles seems to be floating at a consistent distance away – what hope does the industry have of prising cash from worried consumers at this point?
to find out about all the
latest XBOX 360 news, reviews, previews, interviews, features and a whole more.
Please tell me your not serious! XD
No comments, Says it all really. But you were being sarcastic, right?
GET FUCKED U XBOT CUNT CAUSE YOUR SHITTY CONSOLE HAS NO GAMES FUCK OFF
NO DEVOLOPER WANTS IT? EVERY FUCKING DEVOLOPER WANTS IT
I think the real question is why even bother with trash like this. Who cares what this fanboy thinks of a Sony product? Waste of space.
“Though including two analogue sticks on a flat device seems impressive given the touch screened competition, we don’t want to grow old with a pair of wizened claws. Fact.”
what exactly is factual about this statement? i’ll say this.. 40 million PSP owners complained about having only one thumb stick, Sony gives us two and makes them more thumb friendly as well and now you spin this as a bad thing?
This is one of the most ill thought out “articles” I’ve ever read and a complete waste of time, you provided absolutely no evidence to support you claims, i am inclined to say the PSV will possibly bomb but this article is a complete parody, if I’ve missed the sarcasm in this forgive me.
Your 10 reasons why the Vita will bomb are the same as my 10 reasons why this article bombs.
Keep digging, bro.
Ha ha ha, hateing is not cool, seriously.
There’s only one point that makes sense – more and more people plays casual games on their phones. Besides that this is just stupid.
That’s what happens when anyone can take keyboard and add something on the web.
This must be sarcasm. These 10 reasons are pretty much the main ten reasons why the PSV will succeed. Sure it sucks that it is going to miss a Christmas launch in the US, but with so many great games coming out, who has money to spend on a handheld that costs the price of 3 new games? Even a reasonably priced handheld at that. People want software for their old system that they’ve already invested money into, but when the hustle of this years game explosion subsides, the Vita will be waiting with open arms, and Sony with an open wallet.

Exclusive disorder say haiiiiiii!!!
Let’s be realistic here the PS ViTA was made with developers in mind. Just because one shitty developer suggest that doesn’t prove nothing. Every PS3 owner including myself are Going TO BUY it day 1. The list of games from COD to Uncharted how awesome is that and Ubisoft has 6 games development.
@ Tokyo Game Show we shall get more new feature reveals, new games from big JP publishers hint @ Monster Hunter. The ViTA will sell and I have a 100% faith in Sony and this is a fresh START!!!
Last Xbox troll just because crappy Microsoft can’t make a handheld no point trying to spread bad speculations.
SONY are pioneers in technology won’t be beaten :)
xbox got no games which leads to
this website got nothing to report on
so in order to keep the website going they troll on ps3

You are some sad, sad people.
All of you are pathetic. Try the big boy chair sometime and buy both consoles. Or does mommy and daddy not make enough to buy them for you? Aww… get fucked, losers.
Also, shame on this article’s author for very blatantly creating this fanboy shitstorm. You’re an even bigger loser, and a worse writer.
Seriously, all you fanboys need to take a chill pill. The fact is, the PSV will only bomb if the games are not there for it, no matter how good your console is, games are the only thing that matter, and, from the looks of it, the vita will have plenty of good games on it if developers live up to the expectations.
Just look at the PSP vs DS, the PSP was much more powerful, blah blah blah, but at the end of the day, the DS did much better, okay, partly due to the fact it marketed it towards the ‘everyone crowd’, but also because it had plenty of brilliant games on it, whereas the PSP was stuck with a bunch of half-baked ports. The real question is, will the Vita do more than just put a PS3 in your hands, because really, whats the point of playing PS3 games on a Vita, when you could just play them on your PS3? originality is key. Now let’s just see if it can have a better first year than the 3DS.
WOW this is some epic rant faggotry if I have ever seen it.
But seriously the Vita won’t bomb, like everything Sony does it will have a rocky start and eventually find a niche or make a market for themselves.
Congratulations 360magazine.co.uk. You’re goal has been reached. Instead of doing shitty article about Sony which will probably make you popular in a bad way, why don’t you just build a community of Xbox gamers talking about Xbox games and other Xbox things and not talk about the competition. Seriously!
It’s good we have such negative people like you wishing for the demise of any new innovation or improvement in the gaming industry. You want it to fail to boost your little ego and you can tell people ‘I told you so’. Why not wish for something good in the industry.
Your article is nothing short of pathetic.
Wonderful work! That is the type of information that are meant to be shared around the internet.
Shame on the seek engines for not positioning this publish higher!
Come on over and talk over with my website . Thank you =)
