Why is sony so afraid to make another handheld...

why is sony so afraid to make another handheld? the psvita was way ahead of it's time and could've been a success but due to lack of promotion and the memory card being worth too much it failed. Sony is capable of making a handheld that can beat the switch.

the vita never failed in japan.

Because the handheld market is pretty much dead.
>inb4 muh Switch
The Switch is behind 3DS sales, which was already behind PSP sales, which was behind DS sales, phones and tablets took over, the dedicated handheld market is a thing of the past.

they're obviously not going to make one soon, otherwise Snoy wouldn't kill their Vita fanbase with censorship

Because the Vita was known for it's lewd games and Sony doesn't want that anymore?
If anything, the reputation the Vita got was what kickstarted Sony to start their censorship.

>The Switch is behind 3DS sales
Nope, it is the fastest selling console ever, while 3DS was dead as fuck in its first two years
>which was already behind PSP sales
Again not true, they are about the same number of units sold, maybe 5 mil difference but 3ds is still on the market.

Cell phones exist now.

But Vita only became the tiddy machine after it failed due to Sony neglecting it

>it's time
You Americans are all the same.

how did you know i was american?

They can barely handle maintaining a console, no need to add onto the load they're under

>They can barely handle maintaining a console
what do you mean?

Don't even fucking JOKE about that. I don't want to spend another hundred $ for another console.
Home console are more than enough.
Delete your post right now.

>being a third-world shitter

Well twice in a row they made a bunch of fuckups in terms of design elements and continued first party support so maybe "capable" is like the exact opposite of the right word for it.

Because handhelds now have to compete with smartphones because of the nvidia shield, game streaming, and fortnite/pubg mobile.

At least I'm not in California.

What's an ideal display size for a handheld console?

Because the handheld market is falling down thanks to the mobile gaming, Sony is making huge profits from that Fate/Grand Order game in Japan.

The only reason why the Switch is selling well its because of the hybrid gimmick, had it been just a portable it wouldn't reach the half of what it sold now.

Switch screen size and resolution is fine, but it needs to be built into a uniform body or clam-shell design

>California = all of USA
Third-world shitter education at its finest

This is a thread about Sony. Sony is in California now, which is one of the reasons why Sony is censoring games. And it will be even worse in the future, judging by their recent statements.
So... yeah, enjoy. And be sure not to get AIDS when you go there on a vacation. It's just a felony now.

>It's just a felony now.
*not, not *just
Shit, all that California hate clouded my mind and keyboard.

Are you retarded? Because I think you're retarded.

This answered my question here Thanks.

>ahead of it's time
what exacly was ahead of its time? all i can remember is an extremely lackluster library and the most stupid implementation of a touchpad ever

Because they don't know how to make a handheld succeed or what works.

Not like it matters anymore. Sony don't support their handheld with 1st party titles and jap devs wouldn't spend more money to port censored versions of their stuff to a new handheld

Everyone has a cell phone now and nintendos main console is a portable. Its better to just have them focus on a home console because they're dominating xbone so to let up now would be retarded. Im sure the PS5 will have backwards compatability with all other playstations just to take away the one advantage the xbone has left over the PS, that being its backwards compatibility.

It's also worth noting that the DS was an anomaly.

Switch is tracking way faster than both 3DS and PSP though

Great mobile hardware, good screen for its time, decent battery life all things considered, nice touchscreen. Sure, the trackpad is ass, but that's just something that rarely got used anyways.

Then sony had to fuck it up with memory cards.

This is one thing that interest me. Backward compatibility.
Recently, I read an article about some patent... blah blah blah, to play all PlayStation 1-4 games on PS5. Now, latest news say you will be able to play PS4 discs on PS5.

Wait, PS4 discs? What about games I bought on PSN?

Because they wanted quick cash with the vita with no effort. When the cash wasn't easy to get, they dropped it.

>What about games I bought on PSN?
Gone.

>portable playstation but without the anime titty games thanks to new guidelines
lmao no thanks

>not USA= third world shithole
american education

handheld consoles are propped up by japanese games and sony hates japanese games.

Leave them. According to Americans, every other country is a shithole. I guess that's the result of long lasted trauma caused by Vietnamese farmers with outdated weapons.

Because you can already watch movies on your smartphone

So what kind of compatibility is that when you can use discs, but can't play games you bought? Do they want you to re-buy the same games again, or did they lied to us? Meaning, it will be like XBox 1 backward compatibility - only selected games can be played, but first you must download a patch and have a PSN subscription and whatnot?

Stay mad
Probably some European or Australian mouthbreather with jealousy issues. That or a border hopper migrant peasant

Handheld console gaming is just dead, the only reason nintendo handhelds sell is because they hold the pokemon franchise hostage on them

it could just as well have nasa tier hardware with graphene motherfucking batteries, without decent games shit can't fly.
besides, rear touchpad holy shit, what the fuck were they smoking?

Yes, I am a migrant. I'm coming to steal your job. Assuming you have one.

You're not smart enough nor white enough for my career path, Pablo.

It did have decent games though. Many were ports/were ported from it, but decent nonetheless.

I'm 56% white, Brandon. Just like you.

come on now, that was obvious bait.

Still not white enough to get a job in a white majority career field that caters to white businesses :)

>mutt making fun of anyone
don't you gotta pay for all those foodstamps and healcare thats not even for you?

>1/10th what your competitor sells isn't a failure
>1/14th of what your previous product sells isn't a failure
Brainlet

And I get most of it back at tax season. And no, my state doesn't pay into the national welfare system.

YOULL NEVER SEE IT COMINGGGGGGGGGGG

Because phones will replace handheld devices

Funny. First thing that came to my mind was Wyoming, and then I saw this

Call it ''immigrant intuition''.

Cant believe they got rid of the OLED in the slim. Fucking stupid. If you are going to start slashing features at least go all the way and make it cheap.

Thats expenditures, not taxation rates.

No one is gonna play a 50 hour VN on a fucking phone

>the psvita was way ahead of it's time
No gaem back then. No gaem today.

Only faggots and no-lifers play VNs so

>the psvita was way ahead of it's time
lol no. it was a dumbed down smartphone

VNs are perfect. It takes the best things from music, books and vidya and combines it.

>worst
Fixed
