I still don't know what point you're trying to make. Ian Sane still comes here. Ask him. I'm still here because I never really realized that Nintendo sucked until I told you two minutes ago.

What's the problem here? It couldn't occur to you that JUST MAYBE, Nintendo does suck? I don't see what point you're trying to make.

Take a look at any comment section that isn't a fucking Nintendo fansite. ****, man, it was a fucking example.

How do you "improve" something by removing a feature? Just cause you don't like something it's simple, don't use it. Besides, Nintendo can't release an update that would take away Wii mode cause they would be subject to a class action lawsuit of all people who transferred their VC games and they have now purposefully disabled it. Not to mention Wii games

Did you even read what he said in regards to that or did you read the headline for that section and head to the reply button to bitch about it?

The biggest selling point for me if I were to get one (however, I don't want one) is the addition of 1GB of onboard storage, simply so I don't need to spend an extra $20 just to save.

I'm more angry of the misinformation than the fact that it doesn't run at that resolution. I feel like that native resolution should be listed on the back of the box.

This seems worthless.
It is too expensive as a streaming box and it is terrible as a gaming box.


If i want to stream Chromecast is smaller and is 35 bucks.


If I want to play games this won't even let me play all the games available for the Vita. It doesn't have the library of the 360, ps3 or Wii to make it worth picking up.It apparently only allows 2 controllers to connect throwing out a cheap party game machine. It also still has all the negatives of the Vita, mainly that PS3 does everything it does and more.


It's cheap but not cheap enough to be choice for streaming and people who want to play games would rather pay a little more to get a good gaming machine. This seems like its hitting a spot nearly no one wants.

Yet if you go to some Vita forums or r/vita everyone wants this. Go figure.

...hell, many of these don't even run in 720p. Honestly, I knew that they didn't run at full resolution, but the amount of false advertising on the behalf of the companies and the misconceptions on the behalf of the gaming populace astounds me. I got into an argument with a guy saying that Metal Gear Solid 4 ran at native 1080p simply because it says that on the box... and even after I showed him that it was in fact, only 1024x768 (4:3 aspect ration, for pete's sake) with a little AA mixed in.

Hell, the Wii U doesn't have many games at native 1080p either, but just a little better than the other two systems.

All I want for this coming gen is for the PS4 and Xone run all their games at native 1080p at 60FPS with a ****-ton of AA. If they can't even do that, what the **** is the point of bragging about how good all these new games look?

Also: they announced that touch screen and back panel commands can be mapped to the L3/R3 buttons and a on-screen cursor similar to Dragon's Crown's cursor.

Interesting. I wonder what all this "doesn't play all Vita games" stuff is all about. What does that mean then?

I read that Sony has no plans to release this outside of Japan. What?

It doesn't play because there are extremely heavy touch games that can't be done with the dualshock. But they aren't worth playing anyway.


And they do have plans to release it outside Japan, but Japan has a timed exclusivity for a few months after launch.

I'm far from knowledgeable on Sony hardware, but can't the Vita already connect to a television?  I know the PSP could...

It can't. Sadly.

The argument Nintendo has made is that Pokémon is a game designed for multiplayer. Up until the Wii that wasn't really possible on consoles, and even then, online multiplayer isn't really that popular in Japan, which, as has been established, is what Nintendo bases their decision-making on.

So Xbox Live never existed on the original Xbox? Halo: Combat Evolved never had online functionality?

It's a streaming box that can play on the **** one owns on the Vita on their TV in HD. I, on one hand, want to play my Vita games on my TV at home. When I'm not home? On the Vita itself. Especially when I have PS+ and I can easily use the cloud saves function to go from device and device without stopping.


What the flying **** does a 2DS give a current 3DS owner they already don't have? Enough of the fanboyism here. This is fucking ridiculous. As little (in your opinion) that the Vita TV gives to current Vita owners, it's ludicrous to think that the 2DS gives ANYTHING to 3DS owners.

Its a Vita using the TV as a display.  If you own a Vita and a PS4 the only thing you gain is a streaming box and Vita on the TV.

Um, that's exactly what I'm talking about. It's a streaming box (which already cost around $100) plus it plays Vita games, PSP games from the store, and PS1 games? AND it can stream PS4 games from anywhere in the house? And actually, you can just bring the Vita TV to a friends house instead of your PS4 and stream it like that too.


Much better than a sub-par 3DS that only benefits young children. This product benefits anyone who buys it, from those that don't own a Sony system to someone balls-deep into the Sony architecture.

But the Vita TV compliments the Vita and PS4 more so than the 2DS compliments the 3DS. Actually, I'd go so far to say that the 2DS is accomplishing the opposite of what the Vita TV is doing.

LOL, what are you saying? They understood the mobile platform because it was already big before they even "understood" it. The only reason they are big in the handheld market isn't because they're good at it. It's because they've been the only kid on the block for over 20 years.
