ps4 pro...$100 more for minute improvements in a tiny selection of games

the sad thing about the Vita is that hardware wise it was the best handheld ever made.

It got the power, the ergonomics, a beautiful big screen... It just didn't have the game. But seriously, every game on 3DS would've been better on the Vita. It would've ran and look better and not to mention the much more superior online system. Literally the most advanced online system on a mobile device meant for games.

I've been just wasting away work hours playing Soul Sacrifice lately. It's like the ultimate portable game and it had to get sucked into the vita's mediocre library and probably die as a franchise. Though honestly, it wouldn't work on anything but the vita currently. Excluding those shitty overpriced PC handhelds like the shield.

Lad. You spent 'x' amount on a brand new console, got nothing back and spent about the same for the upgrade. (But I saved money because I traded in my old one.) Fuck off melt.

Wasn't one of the Vita's problems that it was "too powerful" and that developers didn't want to work on it?

Does that mean that the Switch is "a powerful handheld" that's why it has no games worth playing on it?

>>381742114
>>best hardware to ever grace a handheld
But that's the Switch.

>>381741754
>>381741864
The NEW 3DS pretty much just makes games load faster and has more buttons, there's like 1 exclusive for it
And the DSi didn't have more power, all they did was add cameras and an app store for shovelware, none of which required so much power that a regular DS wouldn't be able to run it

>>381742085
>loads games faster
>face tracking 3D
That's totally the same as forcing consumers to buy a new console if they want a decent framerate and a higher resolution

>>381742180
The Switch doesn't have games because it came out 3 months ago

>>381742225
>it's okay when nintendo does it

It also makes MH4U and Hyrule Warriors Legends run at a playable speed.
Also exclusive native snes emulation.
Also camera control that isnt ass for games.

The interface is a lot smoother. That was a critical difference to me. Also, the 3D works much better, though I only turn it on for the slightly sharper graphics.

>>381742386

>because it came out 3 months ago

That's a good excuse

I would probably accepted if the Switch had the same power of the PS4 and Xbox

It performs worse than the WiiU

And the Hatsune Miku games were essentially ported to the PS4. PDX was straight-up ported and the other two Miku games had their song lists added to Future Tone on the PS4.

During the PS2 era, didn't Sony intentionally give the Playstation 2 faulty hardware so people would have to buy new PS2s to boost sales?

>>381742779
It doesn't have the same power because it's a handheld console with the capabilities of being played on the tv. How does it run worse? I have MK8D and it runs the exact same while actually looking better than the Wii U version

That is one of the few handheld consoles that actually has nothing at all redeeming about it. Even the Ngage has some truly great games that make it worth buying. The Game.Com was just shit. I liked that the original had two cartridge slots, though. I wish the Switch and 3DS did that.

>>381744289
Who the fuck actually uses the 3d feature, it's retarded shit nobody uses. And there are like 6 variations of the ds. But that is okay, yet sony putting out a new console with a far better wifi chip, 4k compatibility, better power all around is a crime and evil sony FORCES you to buy a new console.

Sony didn't do anything wrong by releasing a console upgrade you're just being a whiney faggot.

>>381744640
Exactly my point, nobody uses the 3D and it's entirely optional
Sony makes a better console than the piece of shit they released just years earlier in order to jew more money out of fans

>>381744640

I like the 3D feature. It makes games look a lot better, and it is used in really cool ways in a few games. I agree that people are being hypocritical twats, though. As someone who has bought literally every version of the 3DS that has come out, except for the 2DS XL, I can't really criticize Sony for making a PS4 Pro, especially when it is a lot more consumer friendly than what Nintendo is doing.

>>381744824
>Sony didn't do anything wrong by releasing a console upgrade
You're exactly the kind of fanboy that Sony adores

So everyone is an hypocrite about their favorite toy.
Who knew, huh.

>>381744832
Nobody is forcing you to buy the upgrade. The ps4 was a good console and it still is, that is why it outsold everything on the market my little nintenbro.

>>381744832

Yeah, but how isn't Nintendo even worse? Nintendo made a better handheld that the piece of shit they had just released years earlier in order to jew more money out of fans too. At least Sony doesn't have exclusives for their hardware revision like Nintendo (Xenoblade, Binding of Isaac, etc.) and doesn't make games that are almost unplayable on the old models (Hyrule Warriors, Smash Bros)

>>381744986
>starts argument with "nobody asked for the 3DS"
>a console nobody is forcing you to buy
>defends a console upgrade nobody asked for
>an upgrade nobody is forcing you to buy

Oh shit, I just bought a Vita for Persona games and dragons crown. Did I waste 200 bucks?

>>381744960
I'm not a fanboy by saying that, it's true. What a fanboy is is someone who starts a thread bashing some shit then dickriding nintendo all thread and being a hypocrite about device upgrades. i.e all the nintenbros in this thread right now.

>>381744960

What exactly is wrong about releasing an upgraded version of a console while still fully supporting the old version, and not putting any exclusives on the new one? I'm not stupid enough to buy the new one for the minor upgrade, but having it available isn't hurting anyone's experience. It isn't like games will suddenly run worse on the old PS4 because the Pro is out. Regular PS4 players are having the same experience they would be having if the Pro was never released.

>>381745175
>i.e all the nintenbros in this thread right now.
>implying sonybros aren't doing the exact same thing

>>381741949
No one gives two flying shits about 3D slider. It's the only thing they got right.
>Clamshell gone
It's a "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" design.
>Durable
Those shoulder buttons broke in about a month's purchase, and I haven't dropped the damn thing. Bought another to see if it's just a dud, and unfortunately that's not the case.
>Sound
I was expecting it to be bad.

>Other complaints
You'd think they'd have an increase on the battery life with the 3D out of the way, but it's the damn same, if not worse.
WiFi is more spotty, meaning you'd have to be closer to the wireless router. Up to~20 ft max on both of the 2DS's I got. The other iterations add an extra 10 ft.
The mushy face buttons. They were fine for the DS lite, but not here. Some games that require long press like Mario Kart 7 lose their response after about 2 minutes.

I have high hopes for the N2DSXL and it looks very promising compared that piece of shit I got twice.

I bought a ps4 myself and even I think your the retarded one here with how you're reasoning your choice. You paid 300+ bucks for your original ps4. Then traded it in to get $100 off the Pro, which still leaves you with $200+ to pay. So you just basically bought your ps4 over again but now it has minor benefits for a selected amount of games that you may or may not play. Seeing how Sony is barely supporting the Pro anyway, you may as well have bought the slim.

Doesn't matter now though. See you when the ps5 is revealed soon. :^)
