Over the course of its journey, the PS Vita garnered a small but loyal fanbase that refused to give up. Lack of support from third-party developers and Sony eventually nudged users in the direction of Nintendo 3DS. Some games from PS2 were ported to PS Vita, including Final Fantasy X/X2 Remaster and Persona 4 Golden, amongst others.įrom a commercial point of view, PS Vita tanked and was deemed as a commercial failure. On the technical front, it excelled with the backward compatibility. Its predecessor was a storm that gave Nintendo a sweat for the first time in the handheld category. PS Vita is the eighth-generation console released after the juggernaut success of PlayStation Portable(PSP).
