So where is that 2nd summer sale week in Europe?!

Happened last week, it was only PS4 stuff. This (3rd) week is supposedly the Vita week.

 

[Renpatsu]

Doesn't it usually go Week 2 PS4, Week 3 PS3, Week 4 Vita/PSP or am I misremembering the last sale?

This week as in the current week?

 

[Kaybe]

This week as in the current week?

I thought I read somewhere that there would be Vita sales this week but I can only find one post in the sale thread about that. Maybe it was written in some PS Blog post. But it's either Vita sales this week and PS3 next or it's the reverse, I suppose.

 

[Shizuka]

I emailed Atlus USA about that. They're working on getting them back on the store. Atlus and Natsume have been good about fixing SCEA's mistakes, but what about the publishers that are unreachable (*cough*Mastiff*cough*)?

XSEED is also good about getting the PSP games working on Vita. I still believe it was a crime for SCEA to do two PSP bundles a couple of weeks ago and just list the GTA bundle on the Vita storefront.

This isn't the last sale though they said it'd be updated bi-weekly with the first being PS4 only and second update being PS3/Vita with not much focus on PSP (Apparently they're planning something else for PSP games).

 

[Takao]

Okay, I just got Mastiff to bug SCEA about getting Gurumin back on the Vita store. Since I'm on a roll, anyone else recall some recently removed PSP games? I've heard some mixed reports about ClaDun X2, so I'll probably shoot an email NISA's way too.

They eventually fixed that:

 

[Shizuka]

I know, but it was a shame. I told them about it the moment it was announced, I think they were fast to get it fixed.

I find it odd why can't Bandai Namco put the same games up on EU/JP store :/

And as you are in the mood

[Takao]

Were KOF, Katamari, Crystal Defenders, and ZHP previously listed on the Vita store? I'll probably get ahold of NISA, but I'm not as confident in getting Bandai, Square Enix, SNK and Sony (lol).

ZHP was on the Vita store. Not sure about the others.

I bought all of them on the vita store sans CD. Not too sure about Crystal Defenders (cross checked with the CAG list).

Why are they getting removed from the Store? I can't think of a possible reason.

 

[Takao]

Is ZHP still on PSN? I can't find it through the webstore's search.

 

[Prelude.]

It was one of the exploit games.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

I'm trying to preorder Hohokum and just keep getting an error. Anyone else have this issue?

Goddamn, it's not on the JP store either.

It was on sale a month or two ago.

 

[Wolf Akela]

Is BlazBlue: Continuum Shift EXTEND (PS Vita) native res and locked at same framerate as consoles?

I really mean native res. I've seen people say P4G and FFX are native res (they're not).

You've heard people say P4G and FFX are native res? lol. I haven't played it in a long time, but if I'm remembering correctly it's native res 60fps.

I have never heard anyone say P4G and FFX are native resolution on the Vita. P4G is clearly not, although the menus and text boxes etc are. FFX seems to fluctuate between resolutions. There are a few spots that definitely look sharp enough to be native res, but it's not the norm.

But like I've said, never seen anyone on here claiming they were and even if they did they'd be corrected pretty quickly.

 

[Arthos]

I want to pre-order Hohokum for the Vita. Is it cross-buy? If so, which version is?

 

[Ingueferroque]

It is cross-buy, it's all the same.

 

[Ingueferroque]

Hohokum just unlocked for me on PS4!!!! Too bad im playing TLOU MP.

 

[baekshi]

wtff flickr app has a patch on my japanese one but not for the one in US. not sure when it got there

edit:
im not screwed but for anyone us accounts.

 

[Arthos]

Alright, thanks! I saw it was separated on the PSN store between the PS4 and PS3 version so I was confused. Just got the PS3 since it's the same. Totally excited to play it!

 

[Takao]

Did Konami never release Coded Arms: Contagion on PSN?

 

[Arthos]

I don't think I've ever seen it on the store, at least from the Vita side of things.

 

[Tapejara]

Hohokum just unlocked for me on PS4!!!! Too bad im playing TLOU MP.

Oh cool. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I know what I'll be doing for the next hour.

Edit: Damnit still locked for another twelve hours .

 

[Yasumi]

Aw man, I was going to get Steins;Gate, but the two PSP Yakuzas are on sale on JP PSN as well for ~¥1400 combined. S;G's going to have to wait.

 

[Bittercup]

Yes it was written in the PS blog comments.
"Next week we will have additional PS3 and some Vita content on sale."
http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2014/08/06/ps4-discounts-added-ps-store-summer-sale/#comment-542865
Probably not that many Vita games then. Nothing known about the 4th week so far.

Glad they fixed it.

 

[baekshi]

Glad they fixed it.

Only in Japan.

Niconico hasnt been fixed also.

 

[Tsunamo]

I finished Daganronpa last night, quite enjoyable. I wont make the same mistake with the sequel I did with the original not pre-ordering and missing out for awhile due to no stock anywhere.

Onto school mode!

 

[Benedict]

Another nice sale for US.

[Velcro Fly]

Tempted by Ys but I need to save my money until I get paid in a few weeks.

 

[teflontactics]

Another nice sale for US.

Anything else you recommend and why?

Not a recommendation, but I'm definitely grabbing Battle of Z for $7.50...

 

[michaelius]

Really nice price on BB Vita

 

[Aru]

Too many Tales of games to play. Already gave Symphonia a chance on GC and didn't like it too much, so I'm skipping the HD version. I still have to play Xillia and Xillia 2 is coming soon.
With Zestiria next, I think I should have enough of those.

 

[Tsunamo]

That Pirate Warriors 2 digital price is mighty tempting, cheapest I can find at retail in Aus now is still around $50

Edit: Didn't know The Iron Giant was classified as Anime.

 

[ULTROS!]

I'm sure this isn't the right thread where I can post (but it'll be probably be related too)...

What are the available PS4 bundles (game + PS4) there in USA that include a PS+ membership?

 

[B-Genius]

Another nice sale for US.

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift EXTEND (PS Vita) $3.75 $7.49 $14.99

Jord dayum! Wish we had the equivalent on the EU store!

Would buy that in a second. Not a serious BlazBlue/Arc Systems fan by any means, but I love me some crazy anime action from time to time.

It was free in PSN+ in Europe

 

[Ohnonono]

Really nice price on BB Vita

It is the old version though. Chronophantasma is so much better IMO, and right there on the vita!

Did Aksys ever add the japanese audio in the Vita version of CP?

 

[Fafalada]

I really mean native res. I've seen people say P4G and FFX are native res (they're not).

It's a pretty simple rule - if it's a PS2 port, it's not gonna be native.
Everything else is native most of the time (the % of games that aren't has only been shrinking over time).
