Colin’s Last Stand’s Patreon supporters voted for a Side Quest topic discussing why Vita “failed,” particularly in light of Nintendo Switch’s success, a victory which proved that portable gaming is far from dead. To tell the tale, I framed today’s video around Vita’s early years, when PSP’s successor was only a rumor, and then finally announced, and then named and eagerly anticipated, and then… well… it all ended up kind of crash landing with a thud, didn’t it. Why and how did that happen? What could have Sony done differently? And, perhaps most importantly of all, what does Nintendo and its Switch have that Sony doesn’t? You may say “games,” and you’d be right, to an extent. But it’s deeper than that. Nintendo believes in its products. Sony obviously doesn’t.
