Both handhelds are awesome imo. I wish the Vita was selling better.
Morta.
Imagine all the amazing games we would have gotten if the Vita took off. T^T
We already have a lot of amazing games on vita . But sony would at least develop a little longer on vita.
I don't know which chart will be more humiliating by the end of the generation. This one or WiiU vs PS4.
Probably this, because, at least, the WiiU is objectively less powerful than the PS4... The Vita, instead...
Maybe Sony should throw in the handheld towel. Conversely, maybe Nintendo should throw in the console towel.
