It was believed that America and Europe might have the PlayStation Vita in early 2012, so gamers in those areas should be more patient.

PlayStation Vita boasts its motion controls and touchpads on its screen as well as the rear side. How much? The price starts at $249 while the 3G-enabled version costs $299. PlayStation’s rival Nintendo lowered the price of their Nintendo 3DS, and they thought PlayStation will be alarmed because of it, but they were wrong. According to Kaz Hirai, “There’s no need to lower the price, just because someone else that happens to be in the video game business decided that they were going to.” Let the game console wars begin!

Apple Now Leading… Putting Nokia Behind

Semidoppel — Fri, 22 Jul 2011 12:23:35 +0000

Nokia started releasing smartphones with Symbian as their chosen platform, this OS helped them lead the mobile industry that time. Then in 2007, it seems that Nokia finally faced the nightmare they couldn’t avoid, Apple. Yes, Nokia was dethroned since the first iPhone was unveiled, Apple became the top smartphone vendor in the world.

This year’s second quarter was fruitful for Apple, they have shipped 20.3 million iPhones while Nokia shipped 16.7 million, according to reports this was 34% lesser than the shipment they have on last year’s second quarter. Apple’s Android leads the race, maybe because it has several manufacturer supporters unlike iOS. Nokia have these upcoming Windows Phone 7 devices, they expect that they can elevate their sales because of these. Well, that’s how business works, you really have to show the difference between your products and prove that you offer the better one.
