GAMESRADAERSony says almost all PlayStation Vita owners also have PlayStation 3s, a combination it claims gives the Wii U a run for its money. Sony Computer Entertainment America VP of marketing, handhelds and home consoles John Koller told
Engadgetthat Sony encourages players to make the comparison between what Wii U will proffer in November and what many already have in their hands and entertainment centers.
"We tell our PlayStation fans all the time that what the Wii U is offering is something that Vita and PS3 can do quite easily," Koller said. A linked Vita and PS3 game, as demonstrated with LittleBigPlanet 2's upcoming cross-play functionality, offers a similar controller and touch experience with the added benefit of the Vita's external processing power. The Wii U's GamePad, on the other hand, streams its data from the console itself.
Koller gave no specific figures on PS3/Vita cross over, but those who don't own either Sony system would need to pony up for a markedly higher price point than the Wii U. The
new model of PlayStation 3and a Vita together would cost at least $520 at their current prices ($270 and $250, respectively), whereas the Wii U bundled with a GamePad starts at $300.
Koller said Sony has no immediate plans to bundle its home and portable consoles together as a single-package Wii U competitor, though it will consider doing so in the future as "retail asks for it all the time."
索尼称大多数PSV玩家都有PS3,这种联合它声称比Wii U来得值。SCE美国市场副总裁,掌机和家用机的John Koller告诉Engadget说
索尼鼓励大部分已经入手这两台机器组合的玩家与将在11月发售的Wii U进行对比。“我们一直告诉我们的Playstation 粉丝Wii U能做到的事情, PSV和PS3要做到轻而易举。”Koller说,一个连接PSV和PS3的游戏,就像是用《小小大星球2》即将到来的CROSS PLAY功能所证明的那样,依靠PSV的强额外处理器能提供相似的控制和触屏体验。Wii UGAMEPAD,另一方面,不过是从主机上接收数据罢了“
Koller没特别提PS3/PSV的联动,但是那些两种索尼的主机都没有的人就要花比Wii U更多的钱来在市场上购买。
新型PS3和PSV加起来现价至少520美元(270美元和250美元,分别是这个价),而自带GAMEPAD的Wii U套装300美元起价。
Koller说索尼目前还没有同捆他的家用机和掌机,用来狙击Wii U的计划,尽管未来会考虑因为“零售商一直要求我们这么做”
