Watch: Sony PS Vita Dev Diary |
Listed in: News Tags: dev diary, playstation vita, Sony, vita
If all your friends started doing dev diaries for PS Vita, would you?
PS fans, get ready to see some work being done on your next handheld.
Dev Diaries often fall into two categories where you actually care about the people versus, you just care about what their developing. There's always a third category where teh developers are so mind numbingly un-charismatic that it makes you wonder why they do what they do, but then you can more often than not chalk it up to long working hours and chronic sadness.
The PS Vita is really gonna be huge. I'm far from a Sony fanboy, or any fan boy for that matter, but Vita has a lot of potential as a gaming platform and a media device. With the connectivity, price and usefulness with Sony's other devices, it could be a must-have item for 2012.
The actual sales, however, may be different depending on early developers versus platform developers. We do not want ports for the Vita, no one really does, but it will probably be the way that it goes, much like the Android does not have any "stand out "games, they're more or less, the same game you can get on your iPhone...just on your Android phone.

January 2013: Why don't developers love me anymore? I've done nothing wrong have i? i used to get all these amazing games but just like daddy Psp all i'm getting is crappy sequels and movie tie-ins, and mommy Sony still keeps saying it's not iPhone's fault.

No, it was confirmed that PS vita is going to use a "web-kit" based browser (not NetFront like in PSP,PS3 & 3DS)
It's going to be as good as any current smartphone browser.

PS Vita & 3DS = gaming.
Phone people ≠ Gaming people
PS Vita = Day One Buy
3DS = Still Waiting On Second Model.

Well, I would love Vita ports of Valkyria Chronicles 3 and Final Fantasy Type Zero (both of which will never be released outside of Japan otherwise). I would also love ports of older games such as a .hack collection or a crash bandicoot collection. People do like ports when they are done correctly. Iphone ports are bad because Iphone games suck, not because ports are bad as a concept.

I can think of a couple things:
* HDMI out (just about every recent high-end Android phone has this...)
* Support for MicroSD (up to 2GB), MicroSDHC (up to 32GB), and MicroSDXC (up to 1TB) memory cards (Yeah, it's a Sony product, have to use a proprietary memory card for the nickel and dimeing of the customer)
That said, this is definitely a day one (and the biggest (32GB?) memory card available) purchase for me.
