Was there a massive robbery, tornado or something?

If not, shit, that is really sad. That VitaTV thing needs to hit the shelves soon.

Hope we see a pack with PS4 + Controller + Vita TV + 90 days PS for 500€/$. It could boost early sales a little.

Top of the page:

- Buy Killzone Mercenary!
- Buy Rayman Legends once you've finished Origins! (since it's on PS+)
- Oh, buy PS+! There is a deal: Bought 1 year, get 90 free days. (I think it's still working).
- Preorder TearAway!
- And EU bros, preorder Dragon's Crown! I don't want to play alone on it hits here. My dear Elf is waiting for you ;)

I am UKVita Bro.

Waiting for (digitally):
- Dragon Crown
- Murahahhahaha once it ships here
- Tearaway

Currently playing Rayman Origins, getting KZ this weekend.
 
I am going to ask a stupid question:

If I e-mail PSN support with a picture of all my UMD PSP games, won't they redeem the digital PSN ones to my account for good measure? Or will I most likely just get a generic copy-paste reply? :P

I just can't bear the fact that I own all these PSP games and I am somehow unable to play them on my Vita.
 
It just occurred to me: the Vita TV will be a great secondary Vita device to put my Japanese PSN account on.

Maybe the Vita TV will even allow multiple accounts, since it's a living room device it's implied to be shared among multiple people. Not holding my breath though.

Anyhow Sony needs to fucking announce it outside Japan already. It makes no sense to release this in Japan first, it's the rest of the world that doesn't care about handhelds and therefore would want this the most.

No. Japan has the "UMD Passport" program where you can register UMD games to your PSN account using a PSP app, which unlocks a discount for purchasing it as digital. But they never made it available outside Japan. And it obviously doesn't support games that were never added to digital to begin with (there are a lot of them).

I know about what happened during launch, but I was just hoping I'd get in contact with a really nice support employee who would have no problem clicking a few buttons to activate games I already own :)

This is amazing. Bravo.

I have like 24 total screen shots to include. The problem is the more I write, the more I want to add more screen shots.

Basically, if I can get people to consistently reach the black market the more likely you'll be able to consistently make it to the temple. I beat Olmec only using 2 bombs so I'm sure I could do it with zero bombs and 3 ropes.

I should be able to get the guide to like 90% tomorrow

ESRB rated Amazing Spiderman for Vita.

Will be interesting to see how the Vita handles the open world. Still sceptical that the Vita is able to pull games like that and especially Boarderlands2 off properly. I don't want subnativ res. Its a disgrace to the OLED.

Not sure if I want a mediocre Spider-Man on my Vita :(. There wasn't another Spider-Man game they could have ported?

Probably just waiting for the PS4 launch to die down. No need to confuse consumers by pushing two new consoles at the same time, and it gives them more time to increase the number of compatible games.
 
Sparkle, a Zuma clone, will be released this Wednesday in Europe (€4.99/£3.99).

So my pre-order bonus code for Killzone: Mercenary isn't working. I'm guessing I have to wait for the store to update, right?

Edit: top of the page. Buy Killzone NOW.

I thought this too but i tried after the update and again it failed. Maybe it was too soon as the update had just gone up. Will try later.
 
anyone know if there is an updated spreadsheet of PSN IDs for those who have a vita? i found the one from summer 2012 but thats about it. just looking to expand my friends list! mine is the same as my username

I posted this a few pages ago. I really hope we get something like the console version...I only played the 3DS demo, but that was just atrociously terrible. Even if there's not as much to do in the open world, I still want to see if the Vita can handle something like that.

Dude today is like game delivery day for every UPS that does business with Amazon. Pissing me off that I still haven't got KH 1.5 HD yet and its already 7:30 PM here! Its not even raining!

I feel ya. Just got it a few minutes ago, not long after complaining about it lol

Too bad there was no way for me to download the patch today before getting the game.
 
Dragon Fantasy II's one of those games I wish I could buy cheaper for Vita only, since I'll probably never ever play the PS3 version. How does it hold up to, say, the Zeboyd RPGs?
 
Vitatv sold out on amazon-japan. If this ends up blowing up that'll be crazy. Something so random and inconspicuous acting as a sort for vita/playstation trojan horse. I've actually owned a sony streamer before and it was a pretty solid device. The only problems were that it had the same notorious local media limitations as the ps3 and was lacking in streaming services. I ultimately returned it, but if they address these (which shouldn't be hard), this could easily beat Roku, boxee and maybe even go toe to toe with apple tv.

edit: Actually, now that I think about it, they probably aren't going for that wide of a market. The streaming is just an added bonus/afterthought? Still, this seems like a better a value than a lot streamers since most people only use netflix and hulu, anyway.
 
REALLY disappointed that Square-Enix isn't bringing the new Theatrhythm game to Vita. I have the original on 3DS, it's a really fantastic little title, and I feel like it's an absolutely perfect fit on the Vita. Oh, well, I can't say I'm surprised. Just disappointed. They'll bring it to iOS, to, if the first one is any indication. Why not Vita, too?

Square Enix haven't announced a retail game for Vita since 2011.

Vita could be rhythm heaven with DJMAX, Cytus and Theatrhythm all in one package.

Still doesn't effect me though, it's one of the few good times where I'm happy owning a 3DS.

Even if it were Vita only, it'd probably be the same price...

Anyway! I only played about 20 min of it, right off of playing some DFBI (Still need to beat it), and... wow. It feels so improved in presentation, music, gameplay... Book I was a release for them to actually be able to finish a game, Book II is their attempt to make their dream 16-bit RPG, and so far, it shows.

It feels more serious than Book I. I never felt like BI's story was taking itself seriously at all, but BII already feels like it's trying harder to be a legit RPG, rather than a snarky parody. Definitely feels more Zeboyd-like in this regard, though don't wanna say too much more with that, before getting into it.
 
So I'm on the 2nd last world of Rayman Legends with everything 100% complete so far, and all of the Origin levels done but I'm only at 200k lums. The 1 million one is going to either take some serious grinding or you get a super bonus at the end when you finish. I'm hoping for the latter.

Dang dude. I'm at around 60,000 lums and I didn't 100% any of the worlds yet.
 
Just added $50 to my PSN wallet and I've got the KZ:M store page open with the BUY NOW button screaming at me.

(And in the back of my head I hear a voice telling me I don't even play any of the FPS games I bought on Steam and that I don't own Atelier Meruru yet...)
