PlayStation Vita

The NGP is an amazing gaming system.

The biggest thing is the upgrades in controls and power. They got it,
Dual Analog stick
Face Buttons
D-Pad buttons
Other face buttons such as Start/Select
L+R Buttons
Track Pad on the back
Touch Screen
Gyro

That's a ton of ways to control the system. Personally, I love it because it will give us an ability to play games that were on consoles that worked with controllers like that of the 360 and the PS3...


Now the reason why it will fail, PIRACY. Unless Sony has managed to obliterate piracy with this new system they will fail horribly. Sony will get tons of money from system sales, but all game developers will be crushed. Though hopefully, we'll get amazing titles like we've been getting for the past year or so on the PSP. Can't wait to play it though :D

''Now the reason why it will fail, PIRACY.''

It depends on what you mean by FAIL?

FAIL that Sony didn't get the money he wanted?

Cause Piracy always increase hardware sales...

No system has "failed" because of piracy. Maybe the dreamcast, but I'm inclined to say they didn't have the money anyways from their failures of the Saturn, to carry them with the dreamcast.

Just so you know, its impossible to both fail and succeed...Thats like saying I ate the cake but i didnt eat the cake, makes no sense.

It is, it will succeed in terms of being a great system, but it will fail in terms of having a good library due to piracy.

It's like saying you ate the cake, but didn't eat the icing.

Fail as in we lose our developers because they won't make much money off the system.

Remember, buying used games is just as bad as pirating games. More or less. So should the NGP fail from used game sales then?

uh... buying used isn't as bad, because people are still paying money, however with piracy there is no payment, so the pirates run rampant without being forced into regulation under any means.

Uh... the PSP was a major failure because of that. The system itself is something I love, but the library is so limited in comparison to the DS. Mainly due to piracy.

PS3 evaded Piracy for 4 YEARS with the PS3.

That is the longest it has ever taken a system to crack to my knowledge.

If Sony can get another 4 years out the PSP2 it will be fine.
