After the initial oohs and ahs the Vita's starting to look pretty flat for me. The available games for the Vita aren't really my thing and most of the better games are Japanese (I don't have the money to import my games all the time) and the Western developers don't really give a shit about the handhelds as of now.
For now I'm going to sit back and watch if the Vita gets better games within a year, but otherwise I'd be better off without a Vita. The PSP's library isn't pretty and there aren't any game shops that sell PSP stuff anymore where I live.
Exactly the same thing i was thinking when I was contemplating on buying it or not. Or just opt for the PSP.
Sony is doing a terrible job with its handhelds. The Vita only has about 25-35 games available right now and some of them have to be imported. It's been quite a while since the Vita's launch and yet there's almost nothing announced to be heading to the Vita. The console itself costs more than a 160GB PS3 and the games are just... bland. Not to mention that the games are overpriced as well.
IMO, the Vita will be another failure from Sony. The PSP's few saving graces were from Japan (Monster Hunter), and Western developers hardly cared about the handhelds. The two GoW games did generate interest in the platform but that's it. The Vita is already in trouble right now.
