Do you have a PS3 ?
Releasing a port of a sports game isn't exactly risky. I would've been fine if EA just updated the rosters of NHL 07 and allowed in game goal tender changes, but that never happened.
As for NHL 12's sales, I have to wonder how much that has to do with there being absolutely no competition. 2011 was the first year where EA didn't have an NHL 2K game, or an NHL Slapshot game to divert attention from their main games in a very long time. If you wanted an NHL game last year you had to buy NHL 12.

I've been a PS+ member for a year and 3 months (got it when they had the year+3months free deal) and I've been loving it. It's changed a little since they added the instant game library (12 full games that rotate every now and then). Seeing as how there are finally some Vita deals added this week, hopefully it'll become more common, making PS+ even more worth it. And I don't know of any deals that allow you to get it cheaper. =/
Yes, would be great if they take a user-centric view of their business rather than just purely number based.

Yikes not another Gaf lurker turned poster. Hi everyone I've lurked this thread and the previous Vita Advice thread for about two months and decided to join in on the conversation. I bought the vita at launch and haven't gone more than two days without picking in it up and playing it. Absolutely love this handheld nothing on consoles since Mass Effect 3 has been able to pull my attention away from it.
In the tradition of the thread I'll post my Vita Collection.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss (SOLD)
Gravity Rush
Super Stardust Delta
BlazBlue
Mortal Kombat
Resistance: Burning Skies (SOLD)
MGSHD Collection
Unit 13 (SOLD)
Dynasty Warriors Next (SOLD)
UMVSC3 (SOLD)
Virtual Tennis 4 (literally just bought and haven't played it yet)
Escape Plan
Motorstorm RC
StarDrone Extreme
Table Top Tanks
TOM Blitz
Velocity
PSP Games that I bought after I buying the Vita:
Darkstalkers Chronicle Chaos Tower
Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max
King Of Fighters 95'
Samurai Showdown
Persona 3 Portable
Powerstone Collection
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite
I didn't realize how much money I dropped on this thing until I listed everything. I only regret a couple purchases (UMVSC3 rage quitters didn't need it for a 3rd device, Monster Hunter not my thing) which isn't too bad.
And after all of that I do have a question to ask of the mighty VitaGaf.
I have been hankering for a trading card game. Should I buy Eye Of Judgement even though it's expensive or should I wait it out for a new Vita TCG?

"risky" meaning risk vs. reward. EA figured they aren't going to get a decent return on portable NHL games (3DS/DS included). I wouldn't mind an arcade NHL game similar to NBA Jam/ NFL Blitz.
influx of new VT4 buyers .. bringing the VT4 interwebs down ..

Don't worry all we want is your brains.
Correct, I was speaking in terms of 3rd party support.
Did anyone even buy NHL 3-on-3 Arcade? lol
These are all the NHL games on PSP:
They stopped releasing them in 2006, and EA has already opted against releasing NHL 13 on Vita.
You're forgetting the best one.
It is a shame they don't develop it more, that whole message board type thing Nintendo tried to show off at E3 could easily be done with LiveArea if they wanted too.

Too bad minis don't have ad hoc multiplayer. My nephew loves Air Hockey but hates playing the AI.
I've laced mine with poison. If I'm going down, so shall all of you!
Unless you skip me and the poison kills me on its own oh god what have I done

Maybe old news, but Treasures of Montezuma Blitz got a new update yesterday, or two days ago. This time it adds more stats that you can view, and you can also see in the leaderboard which level people are. The update also fixes a bug in the trophy where you have to get a 10x multiplier (it wasnt possible to get the trophy before i think).
Same emotion that always hit me after I finish watching any Ghibli movies (I tried to free roam and collect gems and do challenges when the creator told me I need to be ready just because I didn't wanted it to end) but I was sad but also happy in the same time because it was game of the year,and the ending and credit song was very sweet and cheerful which helped too.
more people should get Gravity Rush and SCEA/SCEE need to do some marketing for it and not treat it like a minis release, hell they push some garbage PS3 PSN exclusives more than GR.

I've just won a PS Vita + Fifa 12 from Coca-Cola. You guys have any recommendations for games?

More clues of a PS Vita version of Danger Closes upcoming FPS sequel, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, appear on the web.
According to the Online EA Help Center, Medal of Honor: Warfighter is listed for both the Microsoft Xbox 360, PC, Sony PlayStation 3 and the Sony PlayStation Vita. Its appearance on the PS Vita was rumored earlier as well when a listing appeared on the French retailer CDiscounts website.

Speaking of brains, I'm playing The Walking Dead on PC now and it'd be fun on the Vita. Most adventure games could be fun on the Vita, actually.
congrats
Gravity Rush (must buy, game of the year)
Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack (must buy)
Uncharted: Golden Abyss (if you like Uncharted, it's way better then Uncharted 3 by the way)
Where is my Heart(mini but it's amazing)

I didn't see anything about a Vita version. Only 360/PS3/PC. Hope I'm wrong, but I'd imagine it would've been at least mentioned at E3.
Does the grip make it comfortable to lay on your back and play while holding the vita up and pointing it down on you? I couldn't get comfortable that way with the Vita alone.

Congrats! Just want to throw Katamari and Unit 13 out there. Great games!

Thanks. Hope it's a little longer than that, broke
if you click on platform under browser help you can see Vita listed.
Well be interesting to have MoH vs COD Spec ops edition, if EA bring on full port of Warfighter instead of a stripped down version then they can win Vita's owners.

Ha ha, yes. That's the second reason I was looking for a grip. It's easier to hold Vita while I'm lying in bed.
The thing is I dozed off halfway one day and Vita dropped on my nose. It was rather painful. It's about 50% or more heavier with the grip. Be careful~ ^_^

The "sale" on Vita games should really be permanent at this point. Damned things will probably still be $35+ five years from now. I'm not going all-digital until Sony learns how to scale prices with time (not Sony time).

Lucky bugger : P gravity rush and uncharted are great adventure games. Rayman is a gorgeous and quite inventive puzzle game. Plus wipeout is a killer racing game.
Need for Speed: Most Wanted wasn't really mentioned at E3 for Vita but it's coming.
You are welcome.
by the way, did they give you a memory card with the free PSVita ?

Cho Aniki just dropped to $10 today, so go for that if you're in the US/NA. Lots of laughs.
I hope we get more Vita game sales in the future, especially on the overpriced console ports.
I'm getting kind of depressed because it seems like none of the car games I want right now are 60fps. I was going to get Burnout Legends and Crazi Taxi, but they aren't 60fps?? What. Same goes with RR Vita and 2048 (and NGS+ while I'm at it--never letting that off the hook). I don't understand this.
The PSP has some really excellent games ported to it, but I never realized until now that quite a few don't hold a candle to their original incarnations. I'd kill for the same library native to the Vita. I hope JSR sells like crazy so SEGA can consider making an ultimate Naomi compilation or something. *drools*

I laugh every time you welcome someone with this.

Yes, I'm aware that some of those are PS3 games. This is the Church of Sony, after all.
