Than where do you buy it?!
It isn't out in Japan yet. I just found the image at 2ch so let me post some more info as soon as I find them.
Baboon's gamelay is definitely inspired by the Donkey Kong DS game, and that's not a good thing at all. I hope it's better designed than that game...
How's Nihilumbra?

Please! That looks fantastic! I'd pick up a 2000 model for that.

So apparantly from now on only PS4 games will get a deal of the week on PSN. Sony aren't even pretending to give a shit about Vita anymore.
PlayStation, Meet Spotify
I think this is related to the thread anyway.
Did they specific that? No PS3 too?

"Deal of the week will be PS4 focussed going forward. You will still find Vita and PS3 content on offer in other promotions throughout the year, though."

No PS3 either. But then PS3 isn't less than 3 years old and the successor has been out for over a year so I don't see that as a big deal really. Vita should still be getting enough attention from Sony.
At this point I would have stopped pretending that Sony does care a little about anything that's not named PS4, too.

Really? That's lame. Hopefully they're well represented in regular sales.
Why would they? I mean they've openly stated they're not going to support the system before so this shouldn't really be a surprise
That's what i hoping for as well seeing since they're not going to be part of weekly deals i'm hopeful for when they do go on sale the discount on vita games will greater.

Not familiar with Spotify but it has to be better than Music Unlimited. As a subscriber to Music Unlimited for the last year I can say Music Unlimited SUCKS. So you can create playlists painfully on you PC but you can't use that on the PS4. The "Premium Channels" are repetitious and play the same weird selection of 50 songs. (Folk and Country should not be on one channel as Carrie Underwood should not come after the Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel.) One time it just played the same song twice in a row. The Vita interface is weirdly better than the PS4 version. Spotify has to be better than Music Unlimited. The actual control of adjusting volume and changing songs with the Playstation button menu is actually awesome so I am hoping that this will be used with Spotify. I guess Vita won't get Spotify but I am OK with that now that I have a good smartphone.
I just want to chill to smooth jazz while playing Pure Pool and old school country while playing Super Mega Baseball.

Yeah but it looks like will be only paid subscribers on PS4. $10 a month is the same as my Music Unlimited so this can only be good for me.

I guess my issue with that is that it is imaginary... I'm a item/potion hoarder in games and so it always breaks balance... I have so much mana/health at my fingertips by mid-game balance is generally broken.
Oh, I'd be okay with that. I just can't really think of any games where you're truly mana-starved except for the one I mentioned before, Bard's Tale.
Well, i think that issue is just a result of how, as you say, you 'conceive magic'. Magic systems don't phase me as long as they're good and make sense in the game world. It's been awhile since I played Ultima games, but iirc you had to find herbs and mix them together to create your spells. That was pretty cool. Different systems, different games.
While I understand what you're getting at here, I don't know that this would actually benefit gameplay. I feel like it would add a layer of micromanagement that... might help? But I like the idea that you have a limited number of Ice spells, and thus need to decide when to cast your precious ice spells against the Lava Demons, and when to just use some non-preferred spells like Lightning that don't do as much damage.
In theory, yes, but most games [of all types] aren't balanced well. I'm usually mana and cash rich by midgame in... every game. Like, filthy rich, with more potions than I could ever use (usually because I don't use -any- potions if i can help it, I hoard items).
Hatsune Miku PDF 2nd (Vita/PS3) is $30 on Amazon. It might be a permanent price drop. If you don't buy this, I'm not counting your GotM votes
unless you buy it digitally.
I'm surprised that the game is not OOP already. I expected Sega to make a very limited run.
Both PS3 games are 1080p 30fps.
BTW the sequel is spelled with an uppercase F on both PS3 and Vita versions. Only the first Vita game used a stylized cursive f.

I'm no expert on AA but I think it does. The PS3 games look absolutely gorgeous, they also use higher resolution textures than on Vita.
I think they switched to uppercase for PS3 to signify that it was an expanded version. But then for the sequel they released both versions simultaneously with exactly the same content so there was no reason to go back to lowercase.

Nope according to the Blog response comments you can use the free version of Spotify which I assume has commercials.

, that is the most used app I have on my Vita.....such a perfect YouTube machine :').Guess Sony isn't paying them enough to support the app on Vita? Either way this does suck

Youtube works better in the browser than in the app already.
Really? Welp, then this news doesn't upset me that much then

it's reportedly a pretty lackluster game, though.

Well the fact that this one stands out among the Neptunia games as being poor says something.

My understanding of the problems with Noire's game are that:
- It's a bit of a "beginner" SRPG that doesn't have a massive amount of challenge.
- Noire's character is changed too much because the story writer had never played a Neptunia game before working on it (problems with making her too weak-minded and having everything done by the player character)
- The end credits sequence is not retro like every other Neptunia game.
None of those things put me off. I'll still be buying it (not the LE, though).

I heard that, but isn't it by Sting, which is apparently a good thing? Blerg. I want that scroll and art book. Why couldn't it be a crappy character like Ram
Buy the LE and ship me the goodies for $25 =p

I got these emails from NISA:
One for Firefly LE too. Criminal Girls is supposed to ship next week, I barely trust this solicitation for manual payment as is, and paypal's not even letting me transfer money to their store account... and like I couldn't reach them before, I still can't get an email reply or an answer on the phone. Hell, every other time I go to the site, I can't log in. It's like it disables to safeguard against potential sales errors during maintenance periods or something.
Last couple times I've talked about this ITT some people've said they got through to them no problems, but customer service is non-existent for me. After I get Firefly Diaries (hopefully), I'm not buying anything direct from NISA again. With Vita finally on it's way out, I won't need to anyway.

Lame, hope you can get it resolved. I don't have one of these for firefly, yet anyway.
Wouldn't be so sure about the bolded. I imagine games will continue coming out for the Vita for years, Sony just won't do much with it themselves. They don't have much reason to just drop it when devs are constantly making games for it of their own accord.
Now that's more like it.
I haven't heard the greatest things either but I don't think it can be worse than PP. At least this should be a real, somewhat engaging game. But if it is... yikes.

PP was funny though and had great voice acting and personality. The above stuff makes it sound like the writer of this didn't even get that part right. I'm not sure I can see a non-Disgaea SRPG making up for story with gameplay (not that disgaea is lacking in characters/story anyway)

It's a Sting srpg, right? It can't be terrible, even though their games are love it/hate it due to their trademarke UI/Hud bombardments and kinda forgettable settings/chars. They know what they're doing with mechanics and systems, it's cool to see a polygonal game from them and I like the chibi Neptunia look. Gungnir on PSP was a gem to me, so another gird-based srpg from them is right up my alley.

Can't decide if I slightly like or hate the chibis. Suffering two DSes worth of "chibi because we can't do anything else" has soured me on it even though I actually like (2D) chibis just fine
also physical carts arg. I'm already balancing Freedom Wars, SK Versus (done except the DLC chars) soon to be Neptunia 2, plus like 3 games on my 3DS. Wish I didn't like physical. Wish I weren't tantalized by their pretty boxes and artbooks
I guess this is it
for Vita deals and hoping that Battle Princess of Arcadias will be on sale ;_;
Also I found this on the blog:

Battle Princess of Arcadias was on sale a while ago. Also they'll still be on sale in "big" sales I assume and probably the fairly frequent sales anyway. Can't imagine they'd stop entirely, especially since the PS4 still doesn't have a big backlog of quality but old stuff they can hock for low prices without hurting retail price and such.

Man, I made the mistake of going into that youtube thread. Every little thing is 'vita is doomed/dead' nowadays, even though it only actually affects like 1% of the existing vita populaion. Near? C'mon, it was a tchotchke app at best that most people would have deleted from their vita if they could have. Youtube? Out of Sony's control, and we have the browser still, which is fine by me.
Better to have them? Sure, I guess. Vita doomed? No more or less than it was yesterday before we got this news. Plenty of games still coming out.
Some people in that thread are acting like Sony beats their dog.
Don't know anything about the series (own some, haven't played yet) but yes, Sting takes a ton of chances in their rpgs/srpgs and creates completely new rpg mechanics, for better or worse. Riveria, Gungnir, Yggdra...
