If I want to chat to the friend I'm playing against online, then why can't I?
you should always be able to mute individual players so that you can speak to only who you wish to speak to, should you wish to speak at all, but why are we always ok with limiting out options? Especially options that should have been available as standard years ago.
Hell, by now we should be able to voice/video chat system wide regardless of what I'm doing on my system or what you are doing on yours. I could be playing Mario Kart and you could be watching Netflix, but we should still be able to video chat without concern if that's what we choose to do.
The tech is there, the potential is seen, but for some reason no one bothered to actually activate the feature.
And if you need any further proof that the Western game media-sphere has it out for Nintendo, ask yourself where all the "Vita is Doomed" articles are at. Now there's a truly dead device that the NeoGaf-type crowd insists is just super-duper awesome and there's some kind of conspiracy of confusion preventing it from taking off, whereas the Wii U is simply a piece of **** that deserves what it gets.
You haven't been paying much attention, have you? In the wake of the recent NPD numbers, I saw a fresh batch of articles from the so-called "Western game media-sphere" talking about how poorly the Vita has done. The thing is, unlike the Wii U, the Vita has a good library; fairly consistent software releases; and is a good value proposition between the PS+ games, the cross-buy support, and the PS4 remote play integration. The Vita's a larger sales figure than the Wii U, but you wouldn't know it by all the software being released for it (albeit not exclusive software).
The Vita gets bagged on all the time, and it was getting those articles you claim don't exist long before the Wii U even released. It's just that, unlike the Wii U, the Vita's actually a good system. </shots fired>
Just to note, that better system sold a little north of 10,000 units in March. If the market isn't accepting Wii U, it certainly isn't accepting the Vita.
