Have to say thought the "Wonderbook" was a bad gimmick when I first saw it but it really seems to have some potential.

That Dinosaur book was really interesting and has some neat potential. To be able to go to different areas of the world, look at the dinosaur they found there, and then interactively dig out the fossils is a really great learning tool for kids.

Yeah, the E3 segment on wonderbook was terrible. I'm not in the "entertaining" kids portion of the market" but gamescon shows that it could do pretty decent this winter.

Vita will start to take off next year as well.

With Madden, Fifa, Little Big Planet, Ratchet & Clank, Sly, Playstation All-Stars, AC:3 Liberation, COD: Declassified, Killzone, etc all coming out.

Good time to be a Playstation (PS3 and Vita) owner.

Any news if the Vita fixed its web browser so it renders pages properly?

How nice would the Vita be if it had a mail client, calendar app, and a functioning browser....it would really start to compete with tablets.

Hopefully that is in their plans.

Tearaway and Puppeteer both look fantastic. At the top of my list for sure.

Now I just need to get a Vita too...
