Remember when you used to argue with me about it just being a dumping ground for PS3 ports and that people would see through it soon enough?
It sucks as the machine is great, but it was always going to be like this.

I'll probably get a Vita at some point, probably when it's around 50 quid. Can't really think of anything on there I want (that isn't on the PS3 or digital-only), but I'm sure I'd find a few games that I'd like.
Still have loads of 3DS games to catch up on first. I guess that's what having no money for the last year or so does

What is ps TV?
I'm glad I own a vita. I have mainly played old classics on it which I never played before

At E3 today we introduced PlayStation TV, an entertainment system that extends the capabilities of PlayStation 4 allowing players to stream their PS4 games to any TV in their house.
We believe PS TV makes the ideal companion to PS4, enhancing the user experience and connectivity of the console and providing a second gaming station for an attractive price – PS TV will be available this year in Europe and across the PAL region for €99 (RRP).
The main features of the PS TV system are as follows:
- PlayStation 4 remote play: As with PS Vita, PS TV supports PS4 remote play and Wireless Controller (DUALSHOCK 3 or DUALSHOCK 4). This will allow PS4 owners in the living room to continue playing a game on a PS TV system in their bedroom.
- You can also enjoy most of your PS4 games on PS TV as if you were playing it on your PS4 system*. PlayStation Now: Once PlayStation Now is rolled out across the PAL region, PS TV users will be able to comfortably enjoy PlayStation 3 games via streaming
- A vast line-up of software titles: PS TV offers a huge library of PS Vita**, PSP and classic PS One titles. You’ll be able to enjoy all of these titles using a DUALSHOCK 3 or DUALSHOCK 4 controller.
Well, I got it with the 32GB memory card, so... it was like €420 or something like that. Best birthday present I've ever bought my son though, as he's got so much use out of it. I only have 4 retail games, rest have all been PS+.
The Vita itself is great and there actually are plenty of great games on it. Sony themselves though, have treated it appallingly. People won't buy it unless you make games that they want to play. Saying that there aren't enough people with Vitas to justify big games is a backward way of looking at it. Build it and they will come.
Yes I know, she's a lovely thing, so what the feck went wrong?
How the feck can they launch the PS4 in gangbuster fashion and feck this up?
This is why I think that Minecraft is going to give it a decent boost, if they can actually be bothered to make and supply the thing.
To be fair, if Minecraft on the go is basically the PS3 version and not the IPAD then it could be a pretty big deal.
Needs a killer app for Japan I think for it to really take off, that's the place where single franchises can have the biggest pull.

Not really helped with stuff like this either: http://www.computerandvideogames.co...an-interview-we-dont-need-to-buy-exclusivity/
Basically saying that only real reason to buy Vita is for Remote Play and to use PlayStation Now. Yes, Remote Play is fantastic, but what was said there isn't good enough, and doesn't look like things are going to get better any time soon - especially as they're launching the PSTV which can be used for Remote Play and with PlayStation Now. PS4 is the priority as he says, and before that it was the PS3. Just ugh.
Because none of their first party want to deal with it.
Imagine if Naughty Dog mad a specific game for it. But that doesn't fit the portable use. It's in a no mans land basically.
Maybe because they were already focused on PS4 and thought the Vita would sell because of the hardware.
Yeah, I wouldn't care for a Naughty Dog game on there.
You want platformers, adventures and rpgs in both 2D and 3D form. You want arcade racers and sports games. Not high cinematic, narrative driven games.
Something like Shadow of the Colossus would be great.

I remember Naughty Dog making a fairly alright platformer back in the day.
They've abandoned them for boring third-person shooters like everybody else

Keep up the good work Olly.

Where's the money coming from?! I hope you're not whoring yourself about again?
Use it to buy a Wii U since you've already got a 3DS!
I can get a Wii U anytime, that 3DS is a limited edition! I was wanting to get the Pikachu XL when that was out a couple of years ago and now it goes for about £250-300, I don't wanna make that mistake again
And I thought you told me that I should whore myself out? Dammit
Aslong as its only to Nintendo guys and not Xbots or Sonymen.
Fair point. How much is it?
Fair point. How much is it?
How much is what? My body?
Yes
For you, I wont charge any monetary amount. Just bring me some video games and you can do what you want with me.
Just come up to Stoke whenever and we'll play some Mario Chase.
What size are you? I only have the Mario suit in XL?
So I've heard 
Oh yes, the rumours were true
Some cracking games coming out for Vita, despite Sony not really putting any effort in themselves. Also, I ordered Danganronpa from Play Asia but delivery is taking ages
That game Freedom Wars is coming out, its meant to be good
Japanese 3DS Nintendo Direct tomorrow at 12pm

Indies are largely excellent on a Vita and keep the platform alive. It's very hipster to play indies in this day and age.
Please be awesome please be awesome.
I expect some great things from this one
Like it's even possible that it won't.
Has anything particularly awesome come out of a Japan only direct?
I'm sure there's been some.
Not that I can think of any at the moment though.

Recently got a 3DS, what seems to be the best game for it?
