About the slow death of the Sony Vita
I don’t care. I really don’t. It might be dead, it might not, I just don’t care. As someone who loves the industry and wants to see it thrive on all fronts, that’s saying something.
I wanted to like the Vita, I really tried, but it never grabbed me the way the original PSP did. Now that was a system; great games all over the place, simple controls, UMDs (one of TWO proprietary formats on the device, but I loved them anyway) the effective XMB which it shared with the PS3, which led to an easy-to-use system, and it had interesting, fun games like epic RPG Ys or quirky music game Every Extend Extra, to the glorious re-release of PC Engine classic Castlevania: Dracula X – Rondo of Blood, formerly a Japan-only release.
They even had the surprisingly fun Snoopy vs. The Red Baron, for Pete’s sake. Please don’t forget about Pete!
And when I say I loved it, I mean it. Here’s the box of PSP games in my closet:
