We aren't talking about a Wii-U successor user

You're right, we're talking about a vita successor.
The Vita had no games.

Funny you say that, Nintendo already made a Vita successor.

Nothing, Sony had their chance.

The Vita was an amazing machine, but they dropped the system at the first sign of struggle.

Nothing but actual getting support.
I fucking love the Vita as a piece of hardware, but the game library is pitiful.

Although I really love playing PS1 games on it, my Vita is practically just that. My PS1 and Persona 4 machine.

More games than the Wii-U.

Switch is shit

Why did the Vita fail in the west? Japan seems to be loving and supporting it.

Hard to say, but i think that the price and proprietary memory cards were the problem, although almost no marketing

Because people would rather play shitty pokemon games in the west

no proprietary memory
no CMA bullshit
better battery life than the Switch

It succeeded in Japan because dedicated handheld systems are more popular in general there. Everywhere else the expensive memory and weak launch lineup made it dead in the water. 3DS succeeded in the west where the Vita failed I would suspect mainly because of Nintendo support.

>Why did the Vita fail in the west?
No games. Simple.
Everything on it was a port or multiplat so the thing had no solid system sellers. Not to mention that you were required to buy a memory card or you wouldn't be able to save at all so that jacked up the price to about $300+ depending on which card you went with.

After that Sony dropped first party support about a year or two in.

I wouldn't mind a new portable remote play solution. Games are also nice to have

Stop pretending to be retarded.

it has exclusives, and before games went ported to the PC/PS4 you fags screamed no games anyway.

This. Fuck Sony for abandoning the Vita after its second year and letting it stagnate.

>Stop pretending to be retarded.
Dude I have a Vita. There's not a single game on it that appeals to anyone but NEETs and Weebs that wasn't hot trash. Unless you're going to suggest that Uncharted Golden Abyss was actually a good game.

>required to buy a memory card or you wouldn't be able to save at all
Doesn't the vita have a system save storage? Only reason i bought a memory card was so i can play on the PSTV and for more storage

>Doesn't like weebshit
>Buy handhelds

That your own fault, just play your PSP until the end of time.

All the games the Vita actually had were just portable, wattered-down versions of PS3 games. Gravity Rush being the only exception.

>Japan seems to be loving and supporting it.

6 million LTD, about the same as the Saturn or N64, it's selling 4000 units weekly now and the games being released for it are either VNs or bad PS4 ports, the lack of MH really hindered the chances of success of the system , Sony didn't care to moneyhat Capcom.

Speaking of Sony, what was the last time Sony Japan developed an exclusive game for the Vita, 2014 or 2015? Western Sony abandoned the system as early as 2013.

Keep ignoring the exclusives.

Dont forget about Tearaway, that was a great game.

No proprietary memory cards, if not at least onboard storage of more than 8GB
Bring OLED back.
More buttons
Keep repairing the device easy.
More Weebshit.

If it's gonna be like the Switch, throw in a GPU for the dock.

>Doesn't the vita have a system save storage?
Apparently the newer models do but I know for a fact that the older models didn't.

Stop being a remorse filled Vitard and read for once you idiot.
For starters I never said I didn't like weeb games or that I was even disappointed with my Vita, I said that it didn't have anything that appeals to any other groups BUT them.
Secondly no one said it didn't have any exclusives that's something you came up with on your own.

More powerful than the Shitch so we can finally execute that shitty fisher price tablet

The "no games" meme might be hyperbolic, but it is reflective of an actual problem with the system, which is that it didn't have a killer app. Look at the launch lineup for the Vita and ask yourself what's there that your average normie would be be willing to spend $300 to play. Uncharted: Golden Abyss? Stripped-down version of an IP that you can play on consoles. Ninja Gaiden Sigma+? Port of a remaster of an decade-old game in an already-niche series. Gravity Rush? No matter how good it is, nobody's fucking heard of it and only the very privileged can afford to waste the money just to find out what it is. The library was just too weak to support itself.

You're one of those "quantity > quality" fags arent you?

Ahh i see. I have the newer model so thats why

No killer app game like the PSP had. Or games that appealed to a wide audience. Once the PSP got Vice City Stories, it really started selling like gang busters. The Vita tried this with Black Ops: Declassified and it didn't go very well.

The retardedly expensive memory cards didn't help either.

It did, but the main issue was that a lot of the Vita's library was digital only. Which makes the memory card problem even worse since a large portion of the library takes up quite a few MBs and even GBs in some cases; as well as some later Vita games not even getting a physical release in the west.

Not happening when Sony explicitly turned the other way about the Switch's success and stated there's no money to be made in the handheld market anymore. They'll either have to change their mind or handhelds will be a Nintendo monopoly again from now on.

>It did
On the original models it was reserved for system stuff like the OS, updates and so on. You couldn't use it to save games.

Switch seems to be getting all the weeb and indie games now, so it's basically another vita. Expect this time you'll be able to play pokemon.

Wii-U had neither. :^)

>Once the PSP got Vice City Stories, it really started selling like gang busters. The Vita tried this with Black Ops: Declassified and it didn't go very well.
It's important to keep in mind the difference in the markets at the time as well. The PSP launched in 2004, three years before the iPhone and so three years before every normie started walking around with a handheld gaming device around in their pocket as a matter of course. A dedicated handheld is a much harder sell to the average consumer now that they can just play Candy Crush on their phone that they're already paying hundreds for.

Honestly I think Nintendo is the only one that can actually sell a dedicated handheld because they have games that aren't available anywhere else.

>Black Ops: Declassified

This shit still sold too much.

Wasn't it bundled?
I know it had some special edition Vitas.

People wanting a 3rd Sony handheld need to go back to SonyGAF or SonyERA.The Vita is a decent system with a good library, but Sony has nothing to do with this, the devoted fanbase and the moderate success in Japan were the reasons.

Nintendo first party sucks though and the switch feels uncomfortable as fuck

No thanks, I'll just play on the PS4

For Sony to support and advertise it

>Better UI
>SD Cards
>R2 L2, R3, L3
>No backpad
Everything else the same, doesn't even need better cpu/gpu or anything.

>even on this day there are still people like this
Harmonize nigga.

Came here to say this. Honestly they should just never try again unless it's a pocket PS4 that plays your bought digital games.

>after its second year
Shit was DOA

No proprietary memory cards, just use Micro SD.
No touch screens, or at least no back touch plate.
Better controls and feel. Buttons on the Vita were smaller then they should've been, and sticks should've been just a tad larger. Should also finally add R2&L2 at the least.
Sony actually putting effort into supporting it.
Fairly strong hardware for a handheld.
Feels more comfortable to hold then the Vita. The Vita feels fairly uncomfortable during longer play sessions, and basically requires you get a grip of some kind.

Multi accounts and non-propriety memory cards

>panders to weebshits
>literally what is wipeout 2048/killzone

Maybe in fucking Asia they sell tons of web shit in the PSN but it can’t be that bad there right?

>that wasn't hot trash.

Non-proprietary memory. It can continue to be the low-budget weeaboo game machine for all I care, but just use MicroSD, please.

Honestly just focus on making it THE rpg and turn based system with a solid set of fighting games to back it up and use the fact that devs can put actual good cutscenes in as a selling point. Playing the new digimon for example things like Erika and Rie brawling was just a great touch.

Vita BC, r2 and l2, clickable sticks, sd card support.

Then just make it easy to port from ps4 to it and you are golden.

>micro sd instead of bullshit vita cards
>r2, l2, r3, l3
>big battery instead of bullshit touchpad
>support from sony, maybe this time we could get a nice game like gta
>No region lock
>Variety of colors, but of course that wont be an issue on japan
>A little bit more of horse power
>No propietary charger, usb-c would be nice for fast charging
>A propper support for shit like netflix and youtube, and media players to watch shit from the micro sd, thats the only good thing from the xboner

To use a micro sd GODDAMMIT SONY FUCK YOU!!!

Thankfully the Vita hacking community got that working, unfortunately it requires you to still be on fucking 3.60 right now.

at least we know there's 3.65 and 67 exploits even if they're not released yet

>Micro SD card support
>Pocketable size
>Actual support in the West
>A TV dock

So basically a Switch that's actually portable

Sony didn't try. The 3DS struggled at first too but Nintendo kept trucking and now it's very popular but Sony threw up their hands when it didn't sell like crack in a poor house and blamed smartphones.
