The Vita
This year was another sad one for Vita enthusiasts, at least in the West. Even though the company continues to stress that they are going to support the console, it’s difficult to notice while they’re pushing everything else ahead of it. This year was all about the PSVR, with PS4 Pro sharing the spotlight during the later months.
We did finally get some Vita game announcements during PSX, but by that point it was too little, too late. The handheld is in an interesting predicament, as it is still relatively popular in Japan, but the support on this side of the world has been lackluster. Sony is going to have to make a decision on whether or not they’re really going to get behind their device or cut their losses. The company could benefit by focusing on hardware that’s gaining traction, unless they find a way to provide the same support to the Vita as they have with their other endeavors.
