Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | November 2013 | Tearaway into a new world

Yeah, but how successful were all 3 PSP units in the US? I don't think the Vita life sales match the overall trajectory of the PSP. Hence Sony's "surprise" with the interest the Internet showed them NA had in VitaTV/64gb/etc.

The only thing I've seen as far as "stealth" confirmation is that famousmortimer said the 64gb card wouldn't be coming state side until sometime in 2014 at the earliest. There was no mention of plans for VitaTV let alone a concrete timeframe.

And every day Sony waits to actually inform us of their plans regarding the device is another day someone like me may decide to go with a Roku box or other media streaming device instead. I know by the time Sony even thinks of letting us know that the VitaTV is coming with a release date and pricing info I will have already purchased a Roku box and I'll not even be in the market for a VitaTV until I get a PS4 (if that ever happens).

VitaTV is definitely coming to the west. Spring probably

I played some of Rymdkaspsel, and it was fun for a while, but I stopped paying attention and all my guys got wiped out. Very little desire to go back to it after that.
 
Has anyone gotten their 64 GB M. card from Nippon Yasan?
They seem to be the cheapest offering it atm and I am considering getting it off of them.

Yes. It took a week for it to ship but after that it arrived quickly. Oh, and no customs because the package was priced at 4€.

Yep, they were good for me. Actually, same as above.

Let's do this (spelunky daily challenge).

-edit, congrats killatopak! :)
 
Edit: HOLY SHIEEETTT FINALLY A MEMBER!! ;)
My reason for having an alt is now gone. Member~

Grats!!!

That Amazon deal for Muramasa is tempting but not sure if I want to go physical for it...
Why am I still considering buying games my backlog is ridiculous and I'm broke as from getting Tearaway and Ys this month

I ordered the 64 GB card and a blue Vita 2000 from them. Shipped in 4 days, got here really quickly with the Fed-ex option. Everything came wrapped in Japanese newspapers for my enjoyment. I highly recommend them!
 
I guess they just want to focus their message on the PS4 right now, which is smart. People will get confused if they suddenly read about another new Sony Playstation console. Yes, people are stupid.

Yup. Like George Carlin said:
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

They're great. My shipping option was a little slow and got stuck at JFK in customs for a few days, but it was a great deal and their customer service is excellent.

I'm not calling you a liar, as you may have inside info, but I'll believe it when I see it. :)
(I just know how fucking stupid SCEA is...)
And even then, I'll already have a Roku box and sold my 32gb memory card, so they missed their opportunity with me.

Any idea what may be going on sale on PSN?

Rayman Legends Vita will be a flash sale. No idea when or price.

THIS JUST MADE MY DAY :D
Sonic All-Stars for the Vita been wanting this so much :D

Disappointing month for PS+ as usual. :\

Glad you like it though. :)

Besides, PS+ owes us 3 new Vita titles anyway. Now it's December with no sign of the core titles changing. >_<

I also got it. Took 1 week with express shipping and as mentioned, no customs because it was declared as gift with a €5 value.
 
Ok, since I for the life of me can't decide even if someone were to aim a bazooka up my ass and threaten to blow it up to kingdom come if I can't decide in the next 2 seconds, I am returning to you guys for an answer:

Considering that I have *never* played these two games before: which one I should buy: Journey for the PS3 or Flower for PSVita? No "get both" answer please, help me pick one.

Flower, because it just got released for Vita so a price drop is unlikely :P
From what I have played, Journey is better though.

Bought my 64 Memory Card there, too. Took two weeks and as the user before me stated, no customs. Order it there ;)

Journey, by far. It is an amazing game. Flower is a cute concept that wears thin within minutes

Get both.

Flower is cross-buy for PS3/PS4/Vita while Journey doesn't have that deal yet. That might be an attractive offer for you?

I heard it from an insider a month before the VitaTV was announced, so unless things have changed, it's coming to the west

Give it to CES at least, which starts January 7th. They've been focused on PS4 launch for the west. If VitaTV has any chance of being released outside of Japan, I would bet they would announce it there. I thought I saw some comments Kaz made in an interview (or maybe it was House) that they wanted to push it as a Roku/AppleTV competitor. So in that sense CES announcement would be ideal.

Journey. And play it online.

As much as I don't like agreeing with my arch-nemesis Aytrial makes a good point.

Personally speaking I'd go for Journey as I feel it's the more enjoyable experience of the two and there'll probably be cross-buy with PS3/PS4/Vita eventually when the eventual port/s come for it. But they're both enjoyable experiences (imo) so that's a tough decision.

Not directed at you, just a general question:

If that's the case, why did Yoshida play it off like they didn't have any plans to bring it over and were only just finding out about interest and considering bringing it over... curious. I don't expect much from SCEA, so time will tell.

We also shouldn't forget about Gaikai. Vita TV+Gaikai makes a nice entry level console.
While the price including a controller isn't much cheaper than a PS3 at launch, it will surely go down fast.

The games are Sony's trump card against the streaming box competitors. The market will be crowded with Amazon probably releasing a console and rumors about Apple and Google entering some kind of console gaming never stopping. None of them have the gaming content Sony has though.

They don't want to talk about two hardware launches probably. Wait until the ps4 launch is over. This is just a guess btw

can't decide whether to get from them or Play-Asia (with coupon)
gah

EDIT: bleh. I'll just get it for 98USD from my local game store. lol no need to wait for shipping
now what to do with my 32GB
 
Reports of Wal Mart in stores releasing their BF Deals early, check out your local Wal Mart and pick up some PS+ subs cuz they're live in store now!
 
Yes! It seems GameStop, FNAC and Media Market are doing BlackFriday sales in Spain. Let's see what they do.

Still, I'm afraid tomorrow will be a really busy day. PS4 launched November 29th in EU...

Have you seen this tweet? Shahid gave some obvious hints too.

I'm betting it will launch with Gaikai in North America.
 
Does the ps4 version of injustice work well over remote play? I was thinking of getting the Vita version then considered that I could get a single version for the ps4 and play it in local vs mode in addition to handheld over remote play.. but I'm wondering how well it performs compared to the native Vita version. I play local multiplayer sometimes when people are over but most of my time with the game would be on the handheld.
 
Just bought dissidia duodecim and I am loving it. There is a steep learning curve but luckily the RPG mode makes it manageable. Since I never owned a psp, I love being able to go back and play all of these games I've missed.
 
I already have plus on my account. If I buy a Vita tomorrow will I get the free game collection for every month up until now or just the free games from the month I setup my Vita?

You had to have added them to the shopping cart and "bought" them while they were in the instant collection (you could have done that from the web page without owning a Vita)
 
Deception IV is getting released in japan feb 27 in Japan with a premium edition. And I just saw criminal girls screen...WOW.

Hot damn, Deception is my next big Vita want! So soon...Tecmo Koei EU's twitter (seems more active than NA's) had some tidbits a few weeks ago. Once this Toukiden stuff calms down I hope to see more from them on the localized version.
 
I'm considering buying Muramasa, someone sell me on it.

THE FOOD

is the US PSN down? I got myself a 4GB memory card for 5 CHF (~$6) and wanted to use it to buy PSone games from the US store but it says the site isn't available.
 
I'm dying to get a Vita right now. This eBay deal can't come fast enough. much ps+ game, such vita wow

And if I don't catch it, I'm going to be a very sad person since I cancelled the $169 Best Buy purchase. Should have just kept it and returned it later. Bah!
