Probably not getting a handheld this gen since they both have a battery life of like... 5 hours at best.

Don't know what Sony, or Nintendo were thinking.

And then there's the memory cards for vita.....

P3P is what I got the PSP for last year. I played it for the female MC. Persona 4 doesn't seem to be that different to me and I liked P3's story better. I guess it depends how many new goodies the portable version is going to have. 5 is what I'm really waiting for, though that's not going to be on a handheld yet.

P4 golden has quite a lot of add ons, even more than the ones for p3
my gf loves Persona and she said 4 is better because of the gameplay improvement



The portable version of Persona 3 contained almost all of the gameplay improvements they made to 4. I just liked the playable characters and story better in 3. I couldn't find out what new things they added to P4: Golden. The only major one is the new character and even the wiki wasn't sure whether she would be playable or not.

they added a lot more voice acting, almost 1.5 times more than the original one
new OP
new character voiced by one of the most popular japanese voice actor
and you can earn motorcycle lincence and it can create new events and also be useful in combat
also got new evolution for some characters' persona (so far only one is known)

Oh nice. That's quite a few more additions. Hopefully, there's more. I wonder if they're going to change stuff like Yoshimitsu's Hassou Tobi.

I have a PSP, used mainly for emulation (PS1 and lower) and portable internet. It seems Vita is harder to hack though. But playing PS2 games on a handheld sounds appealing. I'm a bit concerned about the battery though.

Bought a PSP during the first month or so (used, lol). I still have the free UMDs to come with it which reminds me of painful failure with Sony handhelds...

I still liked my PSP but that's becuse I flashed it and had full access to custom firmwares, including 16-32 Bit emulation. Played through a bunch of my old PSX favorites on it but only really love Lumines, Loco Roco and maybe half a dozen other games actually made for it. Software sells hardware so let's wait and see. I can see this being very succesful from the pure specs. Plus, it comes out on my birthday^^

Quick question, can you somehow get the signal on your TV? Considering its power that might be pretty cool.

Another failed idea sony. Just give up on the handhelds and make phones. Cost me 100$ in games on my phone and i have em all, why would i spend another 300$ and then buy games for somthing i have on my phone.? Herp derp vista was a stupid idea on the drawing bord. Consols either need to come into the 21st century or die.

This is bombing so hard in Japan.

Selling 20k a week compared to PSP 60k, original DS 60k and 3DS 240k. I'm no 3DS fan but if nothing changes it's won Japan more than PS3>360 did.

right now there aren't many cool games on the system. the new lumines looks awesome but that's about it. sound shapes may be real cool down the line whenever that comes out. although both of these games could be on PSN or even PSP and be fine lol

I think the vita has really big potential with so many control options, it's just a matter of if a developer will make a game that is fun and utilizes these features well (IE a good game that can only be played well on the vita). sony publishes a shitload of first party games for the PSP/vita, I just wish they would use original IPs that are designed around the system instead of trying to squeeze gimmicks onto PS3 franchises (such as with uncharted). there are a lot of first party developers from sony that could make really cool games for the vita if given the chance, it's just a matter of if they will.

btw i dont like sport games at all but i thought the way the fifa game on vita uses the back touch is really cool. basically the back touch screen represents the goal, and wherever you are touching is where your player will shoot the ball toward when you shoot.

i think the system is definitely the better designed handheld compared to the 3DS, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what sort of games come out on the system. there's definitely a niche that can exist for near-console fidelity games that take advantage of the vita's touch screens and stuff for a cheaper price/budget than actual console games, but i dont want to play just a low budget ps3 game with a bunch of gimmicks tacked on for nearly the same price as a real ps3 game.

It's funny when neither "next gen" system is as portable or long-lifed as a Game Boy Color.

I watched giantbomb's stream where they reviewed the vita and played pretty much every game available at launch. While the console itself looks decent (honestly the OS looks lack luster and nothing really screams I WANT IT, at least to me..), the games look god awful. I realize these are launch titles and there will be a wider selection later.. but christ almighty.. remakes, terrible games that look almost like iphone/android ports (that will ultimately be purchased because theres nothing else available) and maybe 1 or 2 that look decent.

Wish it was different, but I felt like i almost had to force myself to play my original PSP over the years to justify my purchase. The vita looks like itll be more of the same from sony.

didn't expect this post to be so negative, so I'll add this in: The hardware itself does look nice. The screen looks amazing (albeit the touchscreen doesn't look as responsive as some quality smart phones these days *from what I saw after watching giantbomb use it for nearly 3 hours), D-pad looks 100x better than its predecessor (especially for any fighting/platform games!), dual analog sticks (FINALLY), though slightly smaller buttons (doesn't look like that would be a problem). The back touch feature seems.. weird to me. Doesn't appear that many, or any game developers really know what to make of it. Screen touch within games seemed almost useless except as a novelty feature.

anywho, i'm still excited to see what comes out of this system

Got mine in Dec when I was on a trip to HK. Not sure how terrible the system was selling, but a month and a half ago I brought back 3 vitas and reselling it recovered my flight expenses...

Similar to PS3, I think vita is something people will eventually get. The Vita, imo, packs a lot more than the 3DS.

Sooner or later people will start making 3rd party mem cards for the Vita. Games are also on the expensive side...

There was a previous thread that I made about this a while ago, but this one is more recent and updated so no matter . Anyhow, I'm definitely getting a Vita. Love handhelds.

Excited, but going to hold out till better games come. The current games are possibly the least inspiring of any console/handheld's launch, ever.
