Bad code if I had to guess, hopefully it'll be fixed up in time for the US release. I don't think it's overheating at all, in fact the original PSP used to get somewhat warm to the touch when playing for extended periods with the charger inserted. I don't notice that at all with the Vita (longest I've played in one session was about 3 hours).

And even i am moderately surprised
not sure if i'm going mad or not here but i could have sworn that the Neo Geo games could not be downloaded from your download list onto the Vita a few days ago - now they are showing up as downloadable.
Didn't have change to try any of them yet.
Also, PSP2 not playable under emulation -is- a bit of a kick in the balls, but hoping that means they are either sorting it out or -hold me- we'll get a PSO2 on Vita
re: Crowns - i don't recall seeing any text saying what the criteria is. I've had some pretty good rounds that yielded nothing (100% fareway + <-8 scores)

As far as I can tell it's different each challenge, but I might be wrong. It didn't tell me the requirements for the ones I got until AFTER I got them. Which is a little weird.
The two I got were for A) beating Tank on challenge 2-VS in the first three holes, and B) scoring a -3 on challenge 4-1.
I'd add Little Deviants if you want to have some fun with Vita features.

Did it actually turn out to be good, or at least worth the asking price?

Tennis is the best game on the Vita for me, but i'm a pretty big VT fan and i didn't get around to playing VT4 on the consoles.
Mingol is a must as well
Ridge - i'd wait and see on that one - and see what the price is :/
i swear i beat Tank in 3 and didn't get a crown.... maybe i did and i missed it loll
We need to start getting some multiplayer all up in nyaar
OFFICIAL GOLF THREAD !I think it's worth the 2000 yen they want for it (less than half usual game price).

A real crazy dude playing BlazBlue. (1080p video.)
That screen is RIDICULOUS. I can only imagine the great stuff we're going to see in Vita's future. I think once this thing's in store and people actually see it in action with games like these, they'll be convinced. They gotta be, right?!

m0dus, it looks like you have all the app safe spots figured out - could you make a .psd with "holes" in the layers for the icons? This way, everyone could easily make their own wallpapers by using that layer masks or whatever that option is called and covering the holes they don't need for their own icon sets.

That is not how consumers who don't spend hours every week on gaming message boards actually think.

Excuse my obsessive nature, but:
- The guy started playing the game at 22:56, the battery was at (roughly) 100%.
- The session included Story mode, Gallery Mode, and some online play. WiFi, 3G, and Bluetooth seem to be switched on, while the brightness seems to be set to a high(er) level.
- The game was suspended at 23:54, with the battery being around 80% charge.
Assuming he didn't take breaks between edits and was playing the majority of that period, I'm quite impressed. People have already said it's beating their modest expectations, but it's still nice to see it in action.
Possible. I followed the news stories that had links to the list of supported games, and it showed Darius Burst and Macross TF, but neither seems to work when I tried it.
Possible you can do a quick n dirty step by step on the process? I'd appreciate it.

Well, people who do spend hours and hours on boards like these don't think so either, lol. Because the Vita is already doomed and stupid and overpriced before people have even laid a finger on it. ;o
And omg Emma Watson's even prettier than Vita's OLED.

i wouldn't mind sony making a case that has a built in battery using that fancy case they have.
Sony should make a case with another analog stick.

See Phantasy Star Portable 2 is one of the games I actually want to play on the Vita so it not working is not making me happy. I wonder if the PSP emulation code is just not up to snuff yet and they'll eventually have it all sorted out or if there's some other issue. I realize it's very early in the Vita's life cycle but the PSP backwards compatibility is a big thing for me because I have a decent sized digital collection that I will want to play on the Vita. This is one of the key areas of the Vita that I need Sony to get right.

and place it on the back of the vita. make it small like those little red dots on those cute laptops. all nubby like. a vita pimple... a vimple.

it's really weird - i've a fair few PSP games on the Vita and they all run fine, i guess it's something specific to PSP2 that's causing a hickup of some sort. Or of course it could be one of those horrible things were people ask to not have their games BC? :/
i double dipped on mingol and Ridge (those two then went to the wife for her Vita collection) - i'm definitely going to favour downloads for anything that will be played MP or often. Considering Tennis as well.

Well, said boards obviously aren't unanimous, but they're pretty much the only places where I hear the argument that specs will be a major factor in Joe Average's decision whether or not to buy Upcoming Platform X, despite the near-total lack of historical evidence for it.

Are the trophies the same thing as PS3/PSN games? Bronze, silver, gold and platinum?
I think the infrastructure option might be the reason. Maybe they don't know how to emulate it? Also I think it connects to a "normal" PSN to check if you have the online license.
Yeah.

I'm not really talking specs, but seeing the actual thing in action. If the screen is really as awesome as people say, it could convince some average people because they just like what they see. They don't care what it does, it just looks gorgeous lol.

I'm going through this guy's other videos, and holy crap, he is cray cray.
Huh.. Shinobido 2 is not on Gamebryo? I guess it's on Shinobido PS2 engine then instead of Gamebryo like way of the Samurai 3..well unless they just didn't put the logo of Gamebryo or something. (it does look like it use/ported many of Way of the Samurai assets) :/
Digital game manuals on the cart?? very nice.( is this for all the games?)

Loser slave of the system :(
And people are saying Vita doesn't have any system sellers.
So two things I am curious about:
- Any more Shinobido impressions? It seems most people have not picked this game up so I rarely hear anything about this. DCharlie, have you played it?
- I'm lazy for not sifting through information, but what is up with some of the problems like touch screen, 3G/Wifi disconnecting, OLED screen getting weird black smudges? That's got me a little paranoid.

The game seems to have a nice IQ, and the animations looks less janky than the previous Shinobidos I tried, but still has its own share of the signature rough edges, low poly models and low res textures.
So far everything about this game is pointing towards it being a solid title. But I'd like to hear what the resident Acquire fans think when it's released stateside.
(Random observation: The Start/Continue windows in games' Live Areas don't have to be in the center, as seen in Shinobido's)

You can play with 2 different characters?
If you're talking about "wifi function has been disabled" when starting certain games it's not a bug, it's a feature!

I need to know more than "playable"! Does anyone like Tenchu, or has anyone played Shinobido and played the recent Tenchu on PSP or wii?
Doesn't matter. You are gonna buy the game, as I'll do, also. No matter what they say the people that bought/review the game.
I will decide on buying Vita or not tomorrow based on Gravity Daze demo impressions,If Toyama is as good as always, then Vita will get ordered from Amazon, It can be my 3rd *already dead* system
So yeah I hope there is more real hand on impressions, unlike Shinobido 2 or the other launch games when gaffers with Vita (both of them) are trying to not talk about them for some reasons.

anyone who thinks the Vita is DOA based on 320k sales in two days is a complete and utter mongbert.
that is all.
spread thin with Xmas and number of games. I'm now actually playing through in what order -i- want to do it and right now i'm playing Mingol. Will update on whatever else when i get the time.

If the chances of exploding are less than 1/3, i will still buy it. I have motorcycle gloves and helmet, if it's necessary.
For anyone looking to import, I'd recommend getting the Hong Kong value pack.
Managed to sang
-Vita Wifi
-Accessory Pack (Protective Flim, Case, 4GB Memory Stick)
-Uncharted & UMVC3
all for 620 SGD (~487 USD). Much cheaper than if you were to import the JPN set from Playasia i think.
