I am still very disappointed with how Sony didn't talk about the Vita and I thought that other sites would have picked up on it, but I haven't seen many sites even acknowledge that it was missed.

The Vita is such an amazing piece of technology, I really don't want it to be forgotten.

Actually quite a few sites have acknowledged it, and even more regular people noticed it. Edge talked about the 25 games on the showroom floor that Sony should've talked about but didn't.

Sony could've also offered a price cut, but I can see why they didn't. They're focusing on cutting memory card prices at least, so that's fine.

It may be a good piece of technology, but it's library suuuuuucks. Aside from Gravity Rush, there's very little coming out or out right now that I have any sort of interest in to justify the ridiculous price for a Vita. I don't see how these companies think it's a good idea to launch these systems with spinoffs and ports. >.> They really should price cut it, because they aren't doing any better of a job than Nintendo did with the 3DS.

Yeh, it really does suck apart from Gravity Rush.
I know P4 is coming out for it, which will be nice, but I think it is just going to be a bit of a slow time for the Vita, before it is really used.

It has quite a few good games released(mainly platformers) and coming up, it just doesn't have any system sellers yet.

With that said, neither does the 3DS. The Vita has done a much better job of not having a sucky library than other handhelds, but everyone jumped ship way too quickly after it didn't sell gorillions.

Ermm... The 3DS has quite a good library to keep a gamer entertained for a while. Like, Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, Zelda OoT... Shall I go on?

Anyway, to be frank, the Vita's upcoming games (source) are going to make it sell like hotcakes, so the Vita IS gonna live. Sorry for being off-topic about the E3 conference.

Nah, that's not it. It is, after all, coming out in the same general time as Sticker Star.
Has there been a confirmation of this? The only date I could find for that was Q3 2012, and that was from a Nintendo Power article from last year. At least Sticker Star had some form of release date confirmation at the conference... Animal Crossing's non-presence indicates that it's not coming out any time soon, unfortunately.

Really can't wait for Brawl and Zelda to hit the shelves ^^
Also, the Zelda attraction in NintendoLand was pretty cool.

I'm sure all of the remakes and established series on the 3DS are just as good as the remakes and established series on the Vita, but they're both still pretty disappointing in terms of their actual potential.

Despite how disappointing this whole generation is overall, I do genuinely believe that we'll be much better in the eighth generation. Last time I checked we're close to hitting a plateau in terms of graphics, so engines will most likely work on being more efficient, so it won't be as risky to try out a new IP.

Now that I've seen some extra parts of E3 like gameplay on the showroom floor, I'm gonna say that Watch Dogs has been dethroned by Dishonored as my favorite game of the whole convention. It's been a long time since I've seen a game that unique.
