At this year’s Tokyo Game Show, Sony plans on revealing the
full details of the PlayStation Vita.
While the price and core features were mentioned and demoed in limited form at
this year's E3, at TGS this year we will get to see what the handheld is truly
capable of and hopefully get some more info on the line-up of launch
titles. I'm personally already fine with the price and the absurd amount
of features are some good selling points but I would certainly like to know how
exactly a lot of them will be used by games, and more importantly what those
initial games will be.
I still feel somewhat burned by my last experience with a Sony portable device.
I was one of the early adopters of the original PSP and while it was fun for a
few months, it definitely didn't have a lasting appeal, and this was primarily
due to the lack of quality titles released for the platform. A handheld
lives and dies by its exclusives, the 3DS being a recent example of a portable
game device underperforming due to terribly lacking support from developers or
even Nintendo themselves. Here's hoping Sony has learned from their past
mistakes and the Vita ends up being a gaming device anyone could be happy
owning.
