Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | March 2013 | Carving an Independent niche

If you haven't gotten it yet, get Stranger's Wrath HD and BitTrip Runner 2, which are both getting a Plus sale this week.

I almost forgot! yes I'll be getting Stranger's Wrath HD
not sure on BitTrip Runner 2 though... (is the first game on the Vita?)

think I am running out of memory
and I really hope they allow us to change PSN ID
 
I have to say MLB the Show 12 is by far the buggiest game I've ever encountered, especially for the vita.

Had some weird glitch last night in batting practice before the game (RttS mode) where the ball disappeared out of the pitchers hand as soon as he'd throw it. It glitched the game thinking the ball automatically went out of play. After this happened 4 more times, I decided to skip the rest of practice. When I entered the game, the pitcher continued to do this whenever I came up to the plate. Obviously I got walked 9 times that game.

It randomly gave me a pink bat today. No idea why it would do this, but I swear it did. I should have taken a screen shot.

This game has force closed on me 6 times now and given me the black screen of death 8 times.

I still play it :lol:

personally I am really looking forward to mlb the show 2015. Streaming from the ps4 to the vita it really should look and play amazing (assuming the streaming tech works as well as they make it sound like it will)

Every Vita owner in NA. :/

True, I supposed I should have mentioned it even though they were brought up when being talked about with the NA only vita sale.

I had to change to veteran from all-star batting today. Was hitting 331, then went into a huge slump and currently at .245 :(
 
So how do I go about if I want to download those games to my EU vita? Mostly just because I want to play Wild Arms on my PS3. Can I simply copy everything from my memory card to my PC, format it, login to my US account, download, then format it again and copy everything back? Is it that simple?

I haven't played on the vita and I haven't spent much time with 12 on the ps3... but in 2010 my players mlb career average is like .490 with an average of 50 home runs and 180 stolen bases a season lol.

I am tempted to get 12 for the vita, but I will likely just wait for 13 to drop in price and alternate with vita on odd years console on even years instead of just console on even years as i have been doing.

Yes, that should work perfectly




edit : My guy is still in the 1st/2nd month of the minors. My power level is always so low that homers are an impossibility.

The first BitTrip Runner was released to PC only IIRC, but impressions on 2were very positive so hopefully it'll run really well on the Vita too.

Every Vita owner in the US. :/

EU is getting MGS Collection for Vita, isn't that enough!
 
Oh poo, my Vita was stolen from my Office at work.

Only two other people have the key to my office...

This happened to someone in this thread here before. He spread the rumour that sony will help the police tracking down the device via serial number and internet connection. He found his Vita back on his desk.

Oh snap, that's a pretty devious plan... *prepares to implement.*

ah yeah that is how I am in 2012 still... I think I am batting like .500 still but I don't have any homeruns. I have like 30 stolen bases though.

my route to the majors (from previous games)

Start off with someone who is fast.
make them faster so that i am a good lead off hitter.
after I get fast enough that I can get on base with a bunt 75% of the time and can steal a base without trying move onto power and contact.
by the end of year 2 have enough power and contact to be moved to the 3 or 4 hitter.
carry my team to the world series.
after setting new single season records for batting average, stolen bases, hits, and rbis retire from baseball at age 20 to become an instant legend (legend as in a folk tale, not legend as in one of baseballs greatest players :P)
 
Sometimes I just want to smash this Vita to pieces. I cannot stand the constant self refreshing on pages that may have a bit too much info to load. FUCK! Just had to get this out of my system before I actually send it out a window.
 
So after seeing that Disgaea 3 was added to the instant game collection for March I finally decided to join PS+. Quick question, the blog post states that the following games will be leaving the instant game collection as follows:

March 5th – Guardians of Middle Earth
March 12th – Quantum Conundrum
March 19th – Dungeon Defenders
March 19th – Foosball 2012 PS Vita
March 26th – Plants Vs Zombies

I am assuming that only one of the 5 new free PS+ games will be added today and not all 5. Am I right? Do I only have a 20% chance that Disaega 3 will be free as of today's update?

They don't announce the free stuff more than a couple days in advance. If it's going to go free, it generally goes free in the update immediately following the announcement.

EDIT: At least, that's what I -thought-... but everyone below disagrees.

you have a 0% chance you will see disgaea 3 today
you have a 0% chance you will see disgaea next week
you have a 50% chance you will see disgaea by the update 2 weeks from now
and you have a 100% chance you will see disgaea by the last update in the month.

They don't announce the free stuff more than a couple days in advance. If it's going to go free, it generally goes free in the update immediately following the announcement.

NA announced the free games for the month this time, we know what is coming in march, we just don't know when stuff is coming aside from spec ops today.

it's not hard to guess based on past history though
joe danger or the cave will be next week
the one that didn't come plus either disgaea 3 or tekken will be the week after
and the one that didn't come between tekken or disgaea 3 will be in the last update.
 
I hope Disgaea 3 comes over to EU PS+ soon. I still havn't completed 2 but I got really near the end. Perfect game for when im in a position with not much else to play, which is bound to happen eventually.

I should prob finish 2 at somepoint..... by finish I mean the first play through.... not actually finish.

by your statement i am guessing by "near the end" you mean the story.
if so you are about oh 5% done with completing disgaea 2 :P

can't be sure how NisA will interact with EU ps+ though. I was not expecting disgaea to ever be a free ps+ game due to it's niche nature.
 
But I guess the Wild Arms savefile from the US account wouldn't be transferable to my EU Vita if I decided to buy the game on that account, right?
Not sure it'd work either way, but the EU one isn't listed as import so I'm pretty sure it'll be a different game code.

Twist: The thief is also on GAF and is reading your plan as we speak, wont be fooled by it!

On topic: Just got SSD two days ago, loved SSHD on PS3 and I'm loving what I played of this one too :D got it with the discount plus the DLC, only con is that I'm gonna miss the co-op :(

You have a lot more time to think about Runner 2. It's not releasing on Vita until summer. The game is AWESOME, though. I've been playing it on Wii U a lot.
 
you know Media.Vision hasn't been up to much lately...
#WildArms6 #believe
:P
more like Wild arms XF2 :P

Media.Vision is making phone games for Square Enix. That Chaos Rings stuff. They also worked on Valkyria Chronicles 3, and supposedly helped out on the newest Shining PSP game.

i forgot about Shining Ark, but most of that other stuff is well in the past as a year old game and a two year old game is hardly recent activity in the video game world.

when I said hasn't done much lately I was talking about new releases/announced new titles.
As far as I can find they are not currently known to be working on anything.
 
Hey so can I still download the free stuff upcoming without my Vita?

if you are talking about disgaea 3 and tekken through ps+ later this month then yes.
if you are talking about the free games from the vita sale then it sounds like no, they have said they will only be available on the vita store at that price, but it's sony who knows if that is actually true.

edit: beaten :(
 
The 4 free games? (Patapon, Patchwork, Wild Arms, and the other PSP game?)
You can't. The way the post reads, you need to get them through the PS Vita store; the only way to access that is ... ON your Vita.

The PS+ content?
Use the web store: http://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com

CRAP SPACKLE.

no harm in checking the vita channel on your ps3 when they are released.

I'm one of those weirdos that owns[ed] a Vita but no PS3.
 
Anyone play Malicious on PSN?

I dont have a PS3, but see Malicious Rebirth is getting a Vita release in NA and Europe. Is it a decent game?
 
Man unit 13 gets very hard
I feel like there is a penis joke in your statement :P

I haven't played it, but my friend who has really enjoyed it. It's very hack and slashy, and it's pretty short, but he said it was worth his money and that he enjoyed replaying the bosses... I thought about buying the game when it went on sale on the ps3, but i decided to just wait for rebirth otherwise I would be able to tell you straight up how it was ^^; hopefully someone not named toto has a real opinion about it as toto already expressed his rotten tuna with fresh mayonnaise opinion :P
