Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | April 2013 | Sacrifice your Independent Soul

Holy shit! £29.99 too! Also release date is the 3rd, so I assume it did get delayed.

Would normally go retail but I have £15 of credit! Got exams early May to early June though, so might be worth holding off for me. :(

Yeah it's a pretty good price really. I'd go with digital anyway though... I love having all my games downloaded.
 
I'm trying to keep this list (Vita retail releases from now till the end of the year) up to date

so question, is Batman Origins Blackgate a retail release on Vita?

also can someone made a Japanese version of this?

Not a bad list honestly. Very varied, and one should expect COD and AC, maybe Uncharted, and GR2 announcement.
 
I'm perfectly fine not having any other franchises emulating Monster Hunter.

their MonHun clones strategy in Japan failed big time with RO and SS very low sales anyway.

I don't think more publishers will keep on doing it,it's clear that Vita owners in Japan are more into niche otaku games (Persona/Senran Kagura/Diva F)than MonHun clones.

Hope we get some more announcements at E3. And a re-reveal and release date for Warrior's Lair.

SS sold ok. But God Eater is the most successful clone. GE coming to Vita in Japan should give it a boost. GE Burst 2 will be Vita exclusive i would bet.

You meant to type 3DS right?

Possible,it's clearly that all MonHun genre fans moved to 3DS so it's pointless to put it on Vita to be honest.

Vita audience are different than PSP/MonHun fans and publishers should realize and work on what Vita owners actually want that instead of wasting their time on clones.

Thanks a lot.

This is even weaker than the line-up for the west,only things I want are Mind 0 and Over My Dead Body(this is a remake of a remake right?)
 
Just wondering can you ever pre-load digital Vita games and then they unlock on the release day?

I don't think so. I know when you preorder games on PSN for PS3 (at least in Europe) they preoload and unlock on release day. Not sure how it works for Vita games though...
 
I'm fucked anyway
1st May Bank Holidays in Poland
3rd May Bank Holidays in Poland (my birthday :D )

And together they make nice 5 days long weekend .
 
I always thought that sometimes takao is not that better than totobeni, at least everyone know that toto is a half hater so he's almost inoffensive, but when takao posts vita news and unjustified pessimism is way worse imo.

Should i really say that we have never seen gods eater? We had to wait the burst version, so will be this time imo.
It's not that in eu/us geb sold millions, even with a way lower userbase should be possible to make comparable(or better) numbers.

I disagree. Toto is not a hater at all, and i have to say Takao´s attitude and pessimism have gotten extremely annoying.

How was Valhalla Knights 3 turning out? If anybody has any updates on that game??
 
Nice pic Toto! Not a bad list, hopefully more to be added by E3 - although still looking forward to about 4-7 of those. Not bad out of 14 so far.

Guacamelee finally tore me away from PSASBR for now, replaying on hard, excellant game and easily worth the price. Great platforming (quite tricky at times in fact), fun story, theme and music, combat is surprisingly fun too. Only complaint is I wish it didn't end after hard mode and getting all the treasure chests/secrets/trophies, even though there is a speed run mode (top times atm I think are like an hour and a half or something crazy). Still a little short to be honest, want a little bit more but I feel it's coming anyway - they link to the store right on the main menu as one of the 5 only buttons, similarly place and quite obvious too. So here's hoping for that.
 
I'd consider my pessimism towards Namco Bandai localizations to be quite justified. When the company won't release a Vita port of a game they're already translating you know things are bad.
 
^Hopefully it's a new engine for CoD this time.

Also I was banned when everyone was showing folder shots, this is what's on the card atm:

Wish I could add backgrounds to the folders but it will do. Kind of want PSN games separate though with how good guacamelee is and for when luftrauser comes out - but I'm loving not having to flip through so many pages for now.

I know I'm missing Persona 4 and Sly. Sly is next on my to get list, but it might be a while, glad I squeezed in guacamelee while I could! I also worry persona would be too devastating if I did get into it, safegaurding my coursework and backlog.
A few games (everybodys golf and ngs missed the most) are sitting out due to lack of space :/ And I have another retail game - shinobido that I haven't played since doing the soul sacrifice jp demo memory card switch. Good thing a demo is coming next week I heard for EU.
 
Woot bought my vita, will get it tuesday \o/ looking forward to Persona 4 Golden, Gravity Rush, Muramasa, Soul Sacrifice, Guacamelee, Sound Shapes... any other great downloadable games I should be aware of?
 
Dokuro was only $7(+)/$10 on sale recently, so if it's back to full price I wouldn't. But of the two I'd have chosen Dokuro.
