The PlayStation Vita In 2011-2012
- Thread starter Nirolak
- Start date
Gravity Daze was looking good till it seems like the FPS crashed when it went into the combat part.
It has a very limited selection of cars and tracks and they plan to release other cars/tracks at a later date as DLC. No, you can unlock it, but the only good thing about this all idea is that the prices of the game and DLC combined (if you buy it when it's released, I think there's a price cut then) gives you roughly the amount of content a normal game has for the full price.

Oh, it sucks. But well, if the price of the game + price of DLC = full retail price (40€
it would be ok for me.
edit: Now works
But well, I assume they will be ready for EU launch.
I have some other RR questions:
1) Are these 3 tracks new? I don't remember the circuit shown in the last video from RR7 or previous RR games.
2) Do they have mirror / inverse versions?
it would be ok for me.Sadly the image doesn't workIt's true. The game only features three tracks and five cars.
And this is the DLC schedule:

I don't see the frames crash in any part of the video.
I won't be so sure, since IIRC RR will be a EU launch title, and the majority of the non-BGM DLCs are scheduled post February 22nd.
I edited my previous post, it should work now.
HHNNNNRRGH!

ok thanks
why are you guys hyped this thing is dead no one plays handhelds it's all about phones, phones are the future, western devs don't make handheld games they make phone games, and japanese devs are solely transitioning from 3ds to phones why would you want this are you a loser it has buttons only losers buy devices with buttons and it doesn't have monster hunter my phone has monster hunter it has games on carts it's all about the cloud man and downloading games i don't have game boxes also games cost to much pay $40 for a game that cost $12 million you crazy i'd rather play angrily cutting the tiny rope story for 99c
Yeah, unless firmware updates shrink that (or they just make the size customizable) I'm going to be turning off notifications except for times when I actually want to see them.
Phones are the fucking future! (lol)
Uh, do they seriously have the game like Disgaea on this kind of event? Even this special version has lot of dialogue and tutorials in the beginning...
Edit:
Lol, the girl playing Lord of Apocalypse is BAD.

Sorry if I missed it but is Shinobido already announced for US release? I admit, I am intrigued. The game looks fun.
Any possibility of Ragnarok making it over to the US? Or Little King's Story. I'd pay good money for one or both of those.
And echoing what others thought of the Uncharted demo: I think it looks on par with Uncharted 1, which is to say far short of Uncharted 2 or 3. It's still some of the best graphics we've seen on a handheld but because the last console version of Uncharted looked so good the Vita version is absolutely not going to be able to measure up. It might be shallow of me but it's going to be one reason why I probably won't pick up Golden Abyss at launch.

Dev walkthroughs which I think haven't been posted yet:
Army Corps of Hell
Wipeout 2048
Dynasty Warriors NEXT

Shinobido 2's been announced for US and EU release by Namco Bandai. LKS was announced for EU release by Konami, so a US release shouldn't be out of the question. Ragnarok's a toss up, but the game looks good, so someone might take a chance.

Breathe Takao, you're scaring me with that run on doom and gloom sentence. The PSVita will be fine. Nothing to worry about.

Vita will be fine in Asia, but DOA everywhere else.
That's my prediction.

Define DOA.
My prediction is that it'll do better then the PSP. And that's at 53 million +

It haz no gamez, only conzole portz. Patcher predicts Sony will go 3rd party in January, 1 month before Vita release here so they will can Vita western release.
What if it got Folklore 2/port?
two doomed bombas will cancel each-other so the VitaLore combination will beat everything!!!
Jinfash
needs 2 extra inches
The 3DS revision will be released around March, and the Vita will be canceled and offered at the clearance price of $99 around August.
c) Vita getting discontinued
They will combine and become 3Vita.
I'm actually somewhat optimistic about Vita in some ways. A lot of people buy iPads for the games, and while you don't get the nice large screen you DO get the freedom of either standard control or touch control games, and a ton that will blur the lines in some fashion. If they can rope in some of the people in it for easy to play tablet games, and those that are more serious but want real controls for games that clearly need them rather than an emulation that may or may not be satisfactory then it might not do half bad. I guess it also depends on how many got tablets because of more practical uses too that help justify going in for games, iPad's undoubtedly going to be much nicer for PDFs than the Vita can be simple because of resolution, screen size, and form factor.
If Sony want to overcome the iOS perception, they will probably need to spend a lot of marketing $$$, and also demonstrate a clear difference between Vita and everyone else.
TWO ANALOG STICKS
inb4 the 3DS revised version
Looking at the current PSP situation here in Japan (PSP is still selling as well as the PS3), I'm pretty sure that Vita won't bomb. It'll just need a killer app like MH or something similar to become the king of portable market.
Sony took over Sony Ericcson. If the western world prefer a hybrid phone approach or a tablet, Sony will adjust their strategy accordingly, starting with Playstation Suite. Sony will likely consolidate their platforms so that it's easier to develop games across these devices.
In the mean time, Vita is the only one that has the richest control options and expandable memory storage. It should be able to adapt to evolving platform needs.
People who pull the iOS card may not care about dual sticks, but they can still bad mouth the system, generating a tide of negative buzz.

I don't think it really can replicate the system sales in either country. Indeed, will the PS3 even surpass the PSP in lifetime hardware sales, worldwide? As of now it's apparently 55 million vs 71 million (going by Wikipedia). I guess it will, but it won't be by much, probably, depending on if the PS4 launches in 2013 or 2014.
The only way I think it does really well in Japan is if somehow MH isn't a big hit on the 3DS, leading Capcom to put it on the Vita. And in the West, well, if you are a fan of PS3 franchises, I guess it's great. But the PS3 is in 3rd place by a wide margin.
I think Sony could have taken two different routes. One by sort of copying iOS, coming up with a Sony ecosystem of movies, games, music, books, etc, all accessible on all their devices (where applicable). Sort of like Amazon has done with the Kindle Fire. Have the Vita Handheld being the equivalent of the iPod Touch, a 7" tablet competing with the Fire/Nook Color, and then a Sony Vita phone.
Since they own a great deal of media IP themselves, they would have an advantage over Amazon or Apple, at least in theory.
But of course, this route was impossible since Sony never ever cooperates with itself unless it absolutely has to.
The other route, which they took, was by going for a dedicated gaming handheld. Which might work, if they put out AAA games for it and secured exclusives from big name publishers. But of course, they would distract them from the PS3 and presumably PS4, so basically just repeated what they did with the PSP, only using PS3 spinoffs rather than original or rebooted IP. But as I said, the PS3 is the 3rd place console, so that strategy was perhaps misplaced...
There are big Japanese game releases until Spring 2012, so that's not really that weird. I've seen the Vita CM a few times.

Is it confirmed that the VITA will have none gaming apps besides social apps?
Sony should make music unlimited and Netflix + their own movie network to come to the VITA at launch.

I hope they announce a western release of Ragnarok soon, game looks incredible.
Yes.
e.g., In Japan, Vita will also launch with a movie streaming app that will be upgraded to stream live games later.
The WebKit browser is another non-game app.
Not sure if they are available at launch, but Music and Video Unlimited are headed for Vita for sure.
There been things going around about Monster Hunter and this platform this week, from this to rumors that MH is Sony's JUMP Festa surprise. I don't really care at this point, since announcing a Vita game after the first 3DS game has been released is kind of pointless. I actually kind of hope their JUMP Festa announcement is something exciting, which Monster Hunter isn't at least for me.
Nico Nico (basically Japan's Youtube) is a launch application for Vita. That app is really cool because the aim is to eventually be able to livestream, and record/upload Vita gameplay footage on your unit to the website. Obviously things like Netflix, and Sony's stuff will be on the platform eventually.

This may be the wrong place to ask about memory cards but has anything been mentioned about third party memory cards? I'm hoping some will be available at launch or shortly after? I always remembered going for the cheaper SanDisk cards and having no problems with them.
This won't be a feature available at the release? Preorder canceled!
