Tablets are massive pieces of junk that have no place in the tech industry Smartphones are filled with uninteresting "free" games Other handhelds just dont take off |

PS Vita is amazing if you like Japanese games/indie games.
+ it has really good games like KZ: Merc & Borderlands 2 |

To all you people laughing at that notion:
Compare the Gameboys and DSs to the PSPs.
I don't look in the PlayStation section of the store a lot, but when I do I don't see a very extensive selection of games for PSPs. Unless the games are just downloaded on the PSP, then my bad.
Also I don't hear a whole lot about PSPs either. |

@tingle
more due to the PSP not taking off as much in NA/EU and having shorter legs than anything. sales =/= quality. |

Honestly, besides simple puzzle games on devices such as phones... Games are really lacking considering the technology. I don't know why developers try using crappy touch screen controls if Bluetooth controllers exist.
If you can pay for a $200 phone, but not a $50 controller to play portable platforming and shooter games you probably are doing something wrong. |

@zek
Have you seen controllers for mobile phones? They usually just snap on, and aren't even a full size of the phone... Some are just cases with analog sticks and a few buttons.
A 6" phone is less portable. |

BUT games can never take full advantage of them due to the majority of the audience not having a controller.
plus they have to develop for the lowest common denominator so it works on most devices |
