Yeah, I agree. The Vita has the capacity of handling PS2 games; yet, here we are with a handheld device and Sony being Sony doesn't seem to care or know-how to push to it's full potential. Sometimes I wonder about the company. I had a friend who worked for Playstation, and hated it. I won't bore you with the details, but it's all about exes and politics.
Speaking of Nintendo, did you get Earthbound?
