Kinect and Vita Have Run Their Course

A dearth of Kinect offerings at the Microsoft press conference won’t surprise anyone familiar with the Xbox One peripheral, but that it went almost completely unacknowledged at the show might indicate Microsoft is as done with the add-on as players are. Meanwhile, Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida has come out and said not to expect anymore AAA first party titles for Sony’s struggling Vita handheld. Though third parties will still be developing for the platform, its absence from Sony’s stage show, like the Kinect’s, bodes ill for the device’s future.
