but i don't see kenshiro and luffy lookalikes running around
Can someone fill me in on why people say the Vita has no games? I get the "doooom" talk, but not the "no games".
I don't buy that many games (relatively speaking to GAF standards), and I have 7 retail Vita games with plans to buy 2-3 more in the next few months. For a handheld, it has quite a few games for its first 6 months of being on the market.

Willful ignorance. And trolling. Mostly trolling.

Yeah there was no gameplay, just that ultra dark trailer. I'm wondering what it's style will even be like since it was just listed generically as an action game right?
I'm dying for some NFS: Most Wanted gameplay on Vita as well. Can SOMEONE on the damn showfloor freaking record anything? I'll even take shakeycam stuff, just something, please?! The lack of anything for it has been killing me since it's one of my most anticipated games.
OH YOU WILL
You and me both. Same goes for Sonic and Sega All-stars...

August-September: Dammit, why aren't there any Vita games!?
October-November: Dammit, why are there so many Vita games!?

Because it's GAF and most things are overblown here.
I hope! kenshiro is cool and one piece is too good
Part of it is ignorance, as Vitacat said, but it's also the predominance of ports.
I can see how Vita versions of games could be appealing to a Vita owner (because it's a great way to play games), but from the outside perspective, they don't give people a particularly compelling reason to jump on board.
That said, there are no fewer original games than most systems get in their first year, so yeah, people aren't paying attention.
(edit: I should add, Sony isn't exactly helping matters with its utter lack of marketing)
Omega Force has made Monster Hunters clones. Check out Dynasty Warriors Strikeforce.
Not really. PSO2 is online only. There's no local multiplayer, which is what helped the PSP series succeed.
I think when people say that, the ones who aren't joking at least, mean that there isn't any heavy hitters or system sellers. And to that I say even if it was true who gives a shit? Most of us here are dedicated gamers who don't need a system seller to buy a system as long as the rest of the lineup is decent to good. Like I have a list of over 10 retail games to get when I get my Vita and none of them would probably be considered AAA/heavy hitters except Uncharted and Assassin's Creed, which admittedly is the Vita game I'm most excited for right now and it would be nice to have more of those types of games on the system. But there's plenty there already for a gamer to enjoy. You just have to actually try to find to something on it which I don't think a lot of people on Gaf care to do.
Compared to PSP, its really bad. Its like Devs are afraid to make games for it and I dont blame them. Vita is doing really bad in NA market and prolly WW.

GOOD STUFF
Just got a feeling bro that It's going to happen. Sony moves in mysterious ways....hint hint $$$$ It's looking to be the best thing they have next to Monster Hunter. Maybe the delay is because they are porting it lol

You should!
I was legitimately surprised they didn't announce Gravity Rush for PS3 last night given how it all went down.
I could have sworn I saw GR in the PS3 mashup too (dark alleyway, she was in the centre, back facing us)
can't find a clip to confirm..

I need to redownload that and beat it.
Not too surprising...only thing more depressing than the vita portion last night was the ps3 portion of the presentation.
Maybe you're thinking of Rain...
Yes most likely - just checked some footage of rain (after googling 'rain' first
), my bad.madmaxx350

Any Gameplay Vids from TGS yet on the vita games on display? Or has it not started yet?
Soundshapes, HotShots, Sine Mora, I am sure there will be more.
Counting on the mobile games to keep me busy until AC3 L drops. October 3 for PSM. No mention on us getting Sun Flowers huh?
I want that game so bad, and I have no shame in admitting it.
I will also admit that I mostly want it for the music.

I got Hot Shots Golf. It looks like a good game to play in spurts.
puppeteer would have been perfect for the Vita too.
yes many games would be perfect for Vita, but let's accept the fact that for now no one is willing to make them

I'd rather just get the eventual second release with the better games.

The game is simple but looks fun like Angry Birds. I still want Frobisher says too. Come to think of it I want all the Vita apps that are in English that aren't available to us.
I made a PlayStation Mobile round up thread. Not a single fuck has been given as of yet.
That's probably the worst thing about TGS thus far. We can't even get token releases of supports like freaking PS2 up ports.
Even on the PSP side, why isn't Scamco making One Piece PSP a PSP/Vita dual release and get SCE to release a special edition Vita? How about making Digimon Adventure PSP and PSP/Vita release as well so that game stands a tiny shot of localization?

scea layoffs? Good, they need to shake things up. Hopefully they all land back on their feet, but theyve been doing a pretty incompetent job
scee is kicking their asses in comparison and should be awarded. Get them more head count and give them scea's job
