I'll explain when I'm at a keyboard, unless one of you numbskulls manages to piece it together before then.
Like watching a bunch of monkeys trying to start a car with a banana, I swear.
Oh, were you just referring to the corporate strategy meeting on the 22nd? Yeah, that was probably pretty ridiculous for me to suggest.
wtf he's saying they'd never announce "the end" of vita because why would you do that? sales would dry up immediately. instead you let devs put their games out, sell out of your remaining stock, and never speak publicly about it again.
jesus ITS NOT THAT HARD
fucking THANK you
The only times in the past this has been done is when the parent company is in dire financial straits and needs to recall/write-off/liquidate the whole shebang for some quick cash, because it pretty much stops sales dead forever. Think Neo Geo Pocket Color and Dreamcast.
Vita is more like GameCube. They'll just let it quietly and slowly die without acknowledgement.
Hmm, I think you might be seeing more of a disagreement than there actually is.
As I said above, I don't expect it to be confirmed via its own press release, let alone in a press conference.
And yes, I was admittedly confused by your wording. To be clear, you do think that the end of Vita, whenever it is, will constitute Sony permanently checking out of the dedicated handheld sector, right?
