PS VIta launch will be a car wreck according to Lyle Hall and Matthew
The first thing that came in to my mind when I read that was, lolwut?
Lyle Hall and Matthew Seymour of UFC Personal Trainer: The Ultimate Fitness System developer Heavy Iron Studio, gave their opinion on the PS VIta and it's launch, Hall believes there are lessons to be learnt from the 3DS's slow sales so far, saying:
Quote:If people aren't willing to pay $249 for a Nintendo 3DS why would they pay $299 for Vita? People don't want to carry more than one thing in their pocket, that’s why Android and iPhone have done so well, they are the devices of choice, they offers multiple functions outside of gaming
Just as Vita does, of course. It was Seymour who really spoke out about the machine's chances at launch though:

Well... Unlike the Android and iPhone, the PS Vita won't come with monthly service charges :/

Yea. And no... if you get the 3G one than you'll be paying monthly xD
But other wise yeah, it'll be free so that's a +1 on smart phones.
I've said this from the start. The PS Vita WILL be some competition for Smart phones I don't know if it'll actually be able to beat them, just because it doesn't have calling features and people are used to phones to do everything. But I think give it some time and it'll be some real competition.

DS failed because 3D hasn't really caught on yet. Vita isn't 3D, It should do fine :D

@Vacui_Natale what about monthly 3G charges?
I'm not getting the 3G one, since it's with AT&T (in America). AT&T has horrible service in my area, so I'll be better off with the non-3G one.
So, I guess that's a plus for me, because I have WiFi at home and I don't leave the house.
