I'm 100% sure we'll see homebrew things for the PSV made with this SDK. We'll talk again in 5 years.

Nope, that's quite different.

Basically what is happening here is that Sony have made the terms of use state that by using their service, you are essentially waiving your right to start a lawsuit against them. It's sort of like "We'll let you use our service, but if we do, you can't sue us."

It's similar to how some high risk activities are run: Companies running the activities will often get customers to sign a legal disclaimer saying that if they are injured, they won't sue the company.

Now we just wait to hear all the restrictions

Anyway I see this going to be a removed feature after someone uses it to hack.
The Sony will get sued for removing that feature.
Quick everyone remember to quote this post when a thread called "Sony sued for removing Vita SDK" shows up in user submitted news!
You seriously don't understand how this would work, won't you?

The level of idiocy in these two posts astounds me. Wow. It's for motherfucking independent developers, something which Nintendo has rarely every supported. Remember, they said so themselves that they didn't want "garage" developers to work on eShop titles.

I think they were talking about Sony P tablet being similar to DS.

Clamshell design wasn't invented by Nintendo, by the way.

how so?

 

[Joe88]

ignore the random trolls, they think everything was invented by nintendo first

 

[YayMii]

Apparently Nintendo invented a clamshell tablet (according to some of you). As far as I know, Nintendo doesn't even have a tablet.

Also, with this whole "Sony won't let you sue them" thing, I'm sure all of you were getting your amazing legal team equivalent to the Justice League and the Avengers combined to take down Sony, right?

Seriously, even if a good percentage of you were fucked by Sony, you wouldn't even sue them, you'd just go "Okay..." and then just waddle off to somewhere else. Even if you did want to sue them, good luck hiring a lawyer that's able to stand up to Sony's legal team.

Every Terms of Services is full of a lot of bad shit you don't even know about, you just click the box that says you read it so you can continue using their services. It's only bad when someone points it out to you.
