Sora96 17,256 Posted February 12, 2012 Someone's a Nintendo fanboy. To be fair when you look at the current range of consoles the stand-outs are the 3DS and PS3. 1 Uncle Dolan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrownKeeper13 688 Posted February 12, 2012 I'd either enter a sweepstakes or just wait for a price drop to get a Vita. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKingdomkid 1,194 Posted February 12, 2012 i wouldn't mind getting it but its not like what i did with my DS where i traded it in to help pay for my 3DS im not going to trade in my PSP to get the Vita, i wouldn't mind getting it but like CrownKeeper said ill probably enter a sweepstakes (i even went to Taco Bell to try the thing with the big box, yea didn't win http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/sleep.png surprise surprise) or wait for the price drop, and so far the only game on there im interested in is just the Uncharted game, if they have more games that im interested in that come out than i might get it, however i think if its only the Uncharted game i don't think ill get it, but than again im sure more games that i will be interested in will come to it, i just hope a KH game doesn't come out for it, i might have to miss it if its just that and the Uncharted game that im only interested i need more than just one or two games that are on that system in order to get it, maybe more than three as well but still, just have to wait and see, and hope for a price drop Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obi-wan 411 Posted February 12, 2012 Rather stick with the good old PSP 3000. It can play UMD's so i'm better off with it so I can play most of the FF and KH games on the Playstation platforms. If you want to get a Vita go with the PSP 3000 instead so you can play everything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Dolan 963 Posted February 12, 2012 Someone's a Nintendo fanboy. Not sure who you quoting too, but I'm not a fanboy. I own all of this gens (and many gens ago) consoles and I enjoy them all... except Sony products. PS2 was awesome, everything else sucked (PSP was pretty decent though) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadshot 666 Posted February 12, 2012 Hurm,Am going to wait for price drop but i think it has much better line up of games than 3ds did. Games like Escape Plan Gravity Daze Hot shots,Stardust and Modnation look sweet as well and their some other that interest me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J. Severe 1,137 Posted February 12, 2012 I'd wait awhile, see if the system gets a price drop anytime soon, wait for some more must-buy games to come out, before you purchase it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emo/Yami 37 Posted February 12, 2012 Played around with the Vita recently. Its a pretty good system from what I observed during my brief time with it. Gravity Daze and Modnation were awesome to play (although I felt stupid aiming the girl in Gravity Daze at buildings since you have to literally move the whole system and I was in public).

Uncle Dolan 963 Posted February 12, 2012 That's funny since you declare what other people aren't. lol I'm sorry, but you just mindfiretrucked me so hardcore. Elaborate to the young child? 3DS is much better than the PS Vita. I think it's too early to be declaring this. The system hasn't been even out for a whole year yet in Japan!

DragonMaster 1,166 Posted February 12, 2012 Eh, I am not interested in the VIta. I see no games that interest me, except maybe Gravity Daze (but that doesn't look like it is worth buying the console for). Yeah, it is powerful, but I just don't see the games that I want to play. I hope it does well, as the 3DS and Nintendo need competition so they can stay at the top of their game/ There are quite a few 3DS games I want to get, so I wouldn't be able to buy a Vita anyway. Kid Icarus, Kingdom Hearts, Tales of the Abyss, yup it is gonna be a good year for the 3DS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amon 4,279 Posted February 12, 2012 I might get it but I kinda got over mobile gaming years ago. I haven't played my PSP without it being plugged into the wall in years. Playing games in the car makes me Dizzy and I prefer to watch videos while on airplanes anyway cause it's more relaxing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lizzie1238 538 Posted February 12, 2012 I'm gonna wait a while for the Vita. Right now, it just doesn't have anything that interests me (the only thing is FFX, but that's coming to PS3 as well so I'll just get it for PS3). I'm going to wait for the price (of the system and memory cards) to drop and if there are some games that interest me (particularly KH and FF), then I'll get it.

hatok 6,413 Posted February 13, 2012 The Vita has been an overwhelming 'meh' from me form the start, but while I thought I might buy it at the start, Sony shot itself in the foot so many time that I'm simply not interested any more. The overpriced memory cards were the nail in the coffin, and everything that came after that was just frosting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XIIISwords 1,059 Posted February 14, 2012 It will be if Type-0 comes out for it instead of the PSP... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonMaster 1,166 Posted February 18, 2012 I just copied this from a post I made on the 3DS forums, because I didn't want to type it all out again. If you are too lazy to read the entire post, at the bottom I summed up my thoughts (I will bold it so you can find it easier). Also, sorry if there is a thread like this, I didn't see one when I searched "vita", and I couldn't remember a thread about this, so I figured it was safe. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ I finally got some time with a Vita to form a real impression of it, and I also got to demo Gravity Rush, as it was the only Vita game that sparked interest for me. The system itself is much bigger than I imagined. I was expecting it to be slightly bigger than a PSP, but I was surprised. I definitely don't see it fitting into many pockets, unless you have pants with especially deep or baggy pockets. It is also very light for its size, and to me it almost felt a little too light, though that probably doesn't matter to most people, I just prefer things have a little weight to them. The system's size is probably due to the large screen, which brings us to the next category. The screen is large, and I must say that I liked the size. I have never had problems with the DSLite or 3DS screen sizes, and I still don't, but the Vita's screen size was very satisfying. However, the "amazing" OLED screen failed to impress me, I didn't really see what was so special about it being OLED. The colors didn't pop out at me and punch me in the face, I wasn't left awe-struck, it was just a screen. The touch controls worked, and I don't have any complaints about them except that they leave the screen very smudged up, which does detract a little from the experience. The buttons and analog sticks are next. To start with, they are incredibly small. All the pictures I have seen of Vita's have made the buttons and analogs seem bigger than they really are. To be honest, I don't see any reason to have them as small as they are, as it seems that there is plenty of room to accommodate larger face buttons and analog sticks. The analog sticks are small, I would say that they are similar in size to the PSP nub. They have little resistance and limited range. It feels strange at first, but I got use to them while playing Gravity Rush fairly quickly. Sometimes while trying to hit the far left face button (I think it was the square), I would hit the analog stick, which might cause trouble in some games, but I doubt it will be a huge issue. The D-pad is, well a D-Pad, nothing special. The shoulder buttons were nice, and I found nothing objectionable about them. I didn't get to try out the back touch pad, but it is also fairly large and I could see myself accidentally activating it during games, as to hold it comfortably my fingers are always in direct contact with the touch pad. All I can say about it. The home screen was meh at best. It was blue with bubbles that represented the apps and games and was controlled completely by touch. It didn't go out of its way to be very aesthetically pleasing, but it did what it was supposed to. Gravity Rush was nice. The story seems interesting enough, and the premise is certainly original. Gameplay was good, and my only complaints I would attribute to my unfamiliarity with the system. The art style looked great. The graphics were definitely not PS3/360 quality, but they looked pretty good regardless. It was a bit jaggy, but not as bad as most 3DS games. Overall, I think that Gravity Rush is a good game, and that those excited for it probably won't be disappointed. My final verdict is that, the Vita is a pretty good product. This is coming from someone who was completely prepared to hate it, and was trying to find as much wrong with it as he could. Some aspects of it I think are... "over-hyped" for lack of a better word. I, personally, am still probably not going to purchase one. However, if you are interested in the games coming for it and are willing to pay the price for everything you will need, I see no reason not to get one. One more thing, the game boxes are really cool. I can't explain it, but their size and shape is just... interesting. *Sorry for insanely long post.* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kishira 2,854 Posted February 18, 2012 I want to get this system...it's wierd, I fell in love with the 3DS the moment I saw it at E3....but that love has turned to the Vita. I'm definatly getting one once I get a 3DS. *w* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mirr0rVS13 169 Posted February 18, 2012 The handheld seems OK from when I tried it out at GameStop so now Kingdom Hearts is all it needs in order for me to rush out and buy one. (At this time I still see no other Vita games that interest me) :mellow: 2 lizzie1238 and Kishira reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
