No, I don't buy Nintendo products :wacko:

Vita needs more support badly.
Yeah. If I wasn't basically getting one free Vita game a month on + then I probably would have jettisoned this thing a while back.
I am happy I have the system, but it's not my go to device to play games by any means. And I've never really been into hand helds anyway.... even the original Gameboy didn't do anything for me.
DS has so many good games though
Yeah I've never been that big into handhelds. I have physical copies of a few GBA games and a lot of DS games but when I want to play them I often just emulate on PC.
I'm glad I have the original model of the Vita though, unlike Ninty it seems the build quality of subsequent PSP systems just goes downhill with each iteration.
Ninty keeps giving better screens, back lit displays, etc.
Granted, Ninty handhelds tend to start out like shit though, so they can really only go up, whereas Sony goes for broke then whittles away features to cut costs. :wacko:
I have to agree, I think it's really the apex of handheld gaming with those two. Of course it's my opinion, but also the GBA is such a wonderful handheld too!
I'm enjoying it, but you guys are right, it's fun for a while then pass on to something else then I go back to it! Rinse and repeat.
Yeah, it's still in beta phase. I'm a sucker for Terraria style stuff xD!
The GO. :lol
That was an unmitigated disaster, wasn't it?
What was wrong with the 1000? At least the screen looked great on it.... I briefly had a 3000 and it was dark and muted, and had nasty scan lines running through it. I think my old GameGear had a better display than that thing.
Let me put it this way Sprung was the only person I knew irl or online that had a Go. Haha.
Maybe you had a bad 3000? 2000 is basically better than the 1000 in every way. I don't really have experience with 3000s but the specs are in line with the 2000 I thought.
OLED is suicidal so I'm looking into getting a model 2 Vita.
Ooookay clearly I know nothing about 3000s. Love my 2000 model though. :wacko:
Load times on the 1000 can realllllly be atrocious to where some games are almost unplayable, that's a lot of it for me flava.
All the DS ones were fine imo. But the GBA ones were just some ultra win. PSP port of Rondo is pretty great as well.
Yeah, fair enough. A friend of mine had the 1000 back in the early days and I never had an issue with the load times, but that's probably because we never used UMD's. He had everything firmware modded and ripped games to his memory stick, so everything was pretty swell for the most part.
The 3000's were all known to have a lousy display, and they were also so light that they just felt cheap as shit too.
I liked the hell out of Rondo of Blood. Maybe Castlevania should be like 2D for the rest of its games, no one would complain after what Lords of Shadow done to the franchise. I mean sure, it had some bad games, but not games you'd call it a nail to the franchise's coffin. Then came Lords of Shadow, idk, maybe it's just me on that one.
Lords of what? I'm sorry I'm not familiar with this. :wacko:
Now now, don't rip on Gare's favorite Castlevania game of all time. Just ask him how much he loves LoS next time he's on :wacko:
I do have it actually - it's pretty damn good. It's actually really hard too, but you can revisit stages with better equipment and reach new areas (metroid style) to get even better shit. It's worth checking out.
You can choose the difficulty actually. There's also the Novice mode. I've chosen the Ultimate as I like to play my games on Hard xD
I've got it, and bought it for quite cheap. About £6 quid and found out it can get quite pricey!
