Remember when he tweeted this the day before the PS4 reveal event?
Yeah, he can go back to his middle management cubicle and shut up.
Except a lot of indie games have come into fruition for Vita since this guy got into the public. I'm not too upset that he teases stuff, considering he also gets stuff done.

I didn't buy Vita to end up with an indie Steam Box. But whatever floats your boat.
Something tells me that those games would have been beyond his reach either way.
I didn't specifically buy it for that either. But he's never talked about getting big publishers' games on Vita, so I don't know why you should expect him to. I personally bought Vita for games. I don't care whether they're indie titles (what Shahid specializes in dealing with) or big budget titles.

Completely see what you're saying, but Sony did announce Vita remote play with most PS4 games which could have been what he was alluding too but in a much douchier way.

Not sure if thread worthy, but in addition to computers version seems that Polytron is 'working with sony on bringing FEZ to PSN and VITA':

Great news, keeping my hopes up for cross-buy.

Licorice-flavoured booze?
I FINALY DID IT!

Just completed Everybody's Golf without succumbing to easy mode, feels good, that game got stupid hard near the end.

Eating a heavy dose of crow here... i'm actually liking the new art style better ( in motion).
I played the first one on Wii and the second one on the PS3, i liked the 2nd one a lot more.

I know this isn't too reliable but at least it gives a window....

Yes, but the camera, duder.
Anyway, made it to chapter 17 but ate all my potions. I should go back to town to buy some more I guess because the opening room is kicking my ass. I can't counter for shit.
No actually crinale spoke about this in the other page.

A Japanese game store publicity guy says that Vita's software sales overshoot expectations (based on hardware units sold) to the point that it's not even funny anymore
If you don't translate, who the hell will know?
I didn't want to post a machine translation, since it may have been wrong. Seems that was the right decision, since the opposite of what it said happened.
How did you infer a bomba?

SCEE's published ports of licensed kids games on the PSP before, I would expect this is them trying something similar with the Vita. They didn't do the PSP games internally though, several of them were by Spanish studio Virtual Toys.

The timing's weird, but you gotta press the attack button the second you see the hit effect against your guard.
It took me awhile to get the hang of it, and I really only use it against those berserker knight dudes with the Dabi or UF.

It really is/
Really feels like a WD game now.
It's more when they transform. I can't counter attack that multihit and they keep abusing it.
I finally beat Life of Pixel today. I was playing the last stage when I reached my stop on the train, but I got so into it I just sat in the station till I finished it off.
God, the game can be frustrating at times, especially pool of death. Most of the frustration could have been avoided if they just allowed for a user controlled camera, but the good thing is the core mechanic (i.e. jumping) is so satisfying. This game is what I imagine little big planet controls like in my dreams. For fuck's sake Media Molecule, fix the god damn jump.
Anyway, I really really see good potential for PSM as a platform for small 2 dollar games like these, where devs can make a game available for the Vita, and a host of other mobile devices without even requiring a devkit. I am not suggesting that people buy bad games just for the sake of supporting the platform, but Life of Pixel is, imo, a good game, and I think that Super Icon deserves our support.
Final Word. Buy Life of Pixel! it is only 2 dollars!

Im glad someone hates lbp's jump mechanic as much as I do.
To be sure. Little Big Planet is a good game, but it could be the platformer to end all platformers if only they fix the jumping mechanics.
Fix this shit Media Molecule!
I would like to see a good dungeon crawler since it seems like Ruin (Warrior's Lair) seems to never be coming.
More like float mechanics amirite.
Any ideas anyone? Kinda worried my Vita is on the fritz
Have you tried redownloading the game, or maybe formatting your system? (back up your stuff first of course)

It's being described as a Dungeon RPG, which in Japan typically means Wizardry-style (first person, multi character party, turn-based).

Yhat gematsu article mention interesting world and some focus on story, with voiced character and all. The few 1st person dungeon games I played didnt seems like it focus on story at all, which is the primary reason I never play them much beyond first couple hours.

*Co-Sign* That's been my experience as well. One of my favorite purchases for ma Vita so far. I'd love some other great platforming type game on the Vita. Anyone else have any suggestions? And I've already got/beat Rayman (which is another excellent platformer). Any hope of Super Meat Boy getting a Vita port?

Saw an interesting post by Crazy Viking Studios about their upcoming side scroller Volgarr the Viking:
Maybe nothing will come of it, but man..Vita seems like the perfect place for a game like that. We should let the devs know that we'd support it..lol
I promise I will look into Vita/PSN development. I can't promise Volgarr will make it onto it. I plan on getting a Vita shortly and looking into what their SDK is like. We'll see.Never say never.

I had that happen a few times. Quit the game when it hangs at the loading and reboot/restart it. It should work then.
I'm thinking something fucked up two firmwares ago.
