IMO, no...just feels to restrictive control-wise. Didn't enjoy it.

Compared to the Original Dracula X on PCE I think it's pretty spot-on, though many people think the original controls much better. Maybe it's because the remake is capped at 30 fps?

Edit: Sorry, I thought you meant compared to the original... Nibel, I'd rather advise you to give Dracula X Chronicles a fair chance, it's Classicvania at its best. :)
 
EI there any way of refunding?

Sort of hard because you can download it to play on your PSP (if you have one :S), and maybe in the next VITA firmware update is compatible.


European ambassador PSPGo games Everybody's Golf and Resistance Retribution are neither compatible with VITA but the paid version are :S
 
After a fair amount of time , i have to say that Pro Baseball Spirits 2012 is my favourite Vita game and, yes, i own The Show.

PBS is just such a joy to play - fun fun fun. Just won an 11 innings epic in pendant mode vs. the Lions. Absolute S class game.


edit : lol - continuing pendant mode - next game off to a horror show start .... 4-0 :\

Been reading about it and there's nothing I can do for the moment. Will have to wait and see.

I have a PSP-1000 but in my other house, and it's CFW. Been ages since I used it. I think the last game I played on it was the japanese version of BBS.
 
I should be getting my 32gb card today. What is the proper procedure for upgrading memory cards. Just backup to pc, insert new card and restore?

Is this available in the US?
 
Sorry for the question..........but has there been any update on Psone compatibility on Vita from Yoshida?
People should floor his Twitter account with the question :D At this point there is no excuse, I really don't think there is a technical issue considering that the Psone emulator is officially in mobile phones at this point.
Is it possible that the delay could be due to piracy using holes in the Psone games?
 
guys, i bought 25.00 pounds marketplace credit today, what games should i download? i only have a 4gb card, so please nothing to big.

and if i buy a 16gb card, can i swap between the two without having to download my profile each time?

I doubt piracy is an issue since even on the PSP, exploits were always found using PSP games. The most that's likely is a PS1 exploit that allows you to run PS1 homebrew, which I doubt Sony would care about. Kinda like how the PSP exploits on the Vita only allow you to run PSP homebrew. Besides, Sony knew the PS1 emulator wasn't going to be ready at launch before the system came out in Japan, so I'm pretty sure it's not exploit related.

It's more likely having to do QA on many hundreds of PS1 games that are already on PSN from multiple regions, including a crap-ton of long RPGs. Have you seen how many PS1 games are on the Japanese PSN? That, and they're still working on PSP support, which is obviously their main focus (though I'd agree that they should be working on both by now).

Superstardust, Motorstorm RC, Escape plan
 
It's good but a pretty dated in terms of control. I got frustrated many times because of how slow you move and platforming sections where you can fall to your doom (you get knocked backwards if you get hit). It's nothing like SotN-like "metroidvania" games.

I never finished it.
I also didn't enjoy the old-school controls much, but the solution is simply to play Maria. Controls perfectly.

Playing through a bit of Unit 13. I really do think the short levels work well for a mobile game but I dislike some of the enemy AI and shooting mechanics. I'm a little confused as to why leaderboards are showing as "pending."

Hopefully Zipper will still update this game but since they are currently no longer a company, I have no idea how they would go about doing it. Perhaps that has something to do with your leaderboard problem.
 
This may have been answered, but how do you enable charging through a USB port? I see a USB AC adapter thing in the settings, but I don't know if it does anything.

You'll need to set them up the first time, but after that you can swap at will.

I think it depends on the power output capability from the port. I know for example that I can charge my Vita from my desktop PC while off or in sleep mode (it might also work when on, but it's probably that the Vita uses the charge as quick (or quicker) than it gains it).

I'm thinking that maybe it has to do with the automatic log out and lack of an automatic sign in but I remember people mentnioning how the leaderboards weren't quite working right even on launch.

How much power do I need, then? I'm using one of those things...

... it works with my iPhone, but not my Vita.

I've been thinking about getting this one. The USB charger is at 1.6 amps. Is that enough?

Is the Vita screen suppose to be not as "Slippery" as say a smartphone screen?

It feels pretty much how you'd expect it to feel. The surface is maybe 2% less smooth than my Evo4G, but I also have a screen protector applied (to the Vita). For all intents and purposes, it's a smartphone capacitive screen.
 
I got a 20 Euro PSN card today;
I wanted to get the Ridge Racer Gold Pass, but I am not sure if there will be another Pass soon which will have a better deal, anyone? I understand that in PAL land (where I reside) the gold pass at the moment only gives you 1 extra track, some cars and some music, is this correct?

Also, what (else) should I get? In the case of either buying or not buying the Gold pass
I already have Wipeout and Uncharted
 
finally could buy motorstorm Ae, and man, it looks great on vita, i like it better without bilinear filtering. And the awesome screen allows for better gameplay as it is easier to see what is going on and wht is ahead of you.

Best portable racing game ever! I hope wee see a sequel soon on vita

Have you tried? Mine doesn't indicate that it's charging, but I left it plugged in for a while (can't remember how long, a couple of hours I'd guess) and the charge went from ~20% to ~80% IIRC (I did post some pictures somewhere, can't remember where now - I'll try and find the post).

I find it really odd that the charging indicator only works with the AC adapter. Sony should fix this.
 
Is Monster Hunter Freedom Unite fun without the MP aspects? I have always been curious about the games but don't know anyone with a PSP or Vita to be able to get the social aspect that seems so needed.

I enjoy MHFU solo quite a bit. Also it is very possible to solo everything in the game if you try.
 
thanks for the replies everyone. should i buy super stardust with the add on pack? its 7.99 with the pack or 6.29 without.

and can anyone recommend some the cheap psp games that run well on the vita.
 
Ah neat. Was playing around in paintpark earlier, didn't know you could mix two colors to get a new one! Multiple touch used quite nicely!

edit: What? Disgaea 3 just showed up on my store?! Wasn't there last night (EU).
