not so much that the vita is a waste, and i promise no game on your phone is as awesome as uncharted on vita. The system is great they just killed it with greed by going anti-consumer and having to buy sony specific proprietary memory at a retardedly high price, instead of letting it run on regular Micro SD cards.

I'm not paying $100 for 8gb from sony when i can get 64gb Micro SDHC anywhere for $50. THIS is the main reason the system has failed to sell. everything else on paper is a home run.

yep when u HAVE TO buy from them, when the EXACT same thing is cheaper, it will fail. i never bought one and i am not gonna. I had a PSP and that was MUCH better than the psvita. atleast i could use ANY sdcard with it, and not one from sony.

and yea $50.00 for a data plan!!!! i dont even pay that for my phones data!! thank god the psvita is done for.
