The 3DS XL seems to impress most of the people that try it. Sony needs to do something asap. Nintendo hit the panic button last year and since then things have gone better. It is time for sony to do the same.
I found the remake to be very very charming. Although, yeah, sprites forever.
I prefer the DS version. Really, the games are very similar, just go with the art style you like better.
There is a certain charm to the simple 3D models and it's nice to see your characters' weapons reflected on them.
Sony's incredibly complacent. They ain't gonna care about some jumbo sized 3DS.
I can also guarantee you that this game will be the best soundtrack you heard this generation.

Wife me.
EDIT: YEEEEES. Master Ninja'd Chapter 6. Never need to fight motorcycles again!
They did say something about Vita RemotePlay:

The PlayMemories app, the Torne and Nasne DVR devices in Japan are also rated as RemotePlay compatible.
As for Vita RemotePlay vs PSP RemotePlay:

So... does anyone know how long this HSG and VT4 sale is going on for?

Incorrect, at least from where I'm sitting.
Fighters (and shmups, and maybe platformers) on the go would be the best things about a portable.
And that's why I chose the Vita to buy first -- UMvC3/MK9/Blazblue/SFxT -- yes please! 8)
Damn, that looks great -- how much is it retailing for on PSN?
Thank you for the link where they talked about the remote play plans. I had not seen that.
Although with the way things have been going, I'm certainly not holding my breath.
They expire when the store is updated tomorrow. The update can happen anywhere between 3-9PM EDT.

I thought I had at least another week to decide if I wanted either, but I guess not. ;_; Thanks Takao.
Shmups on the go? No way, my Vita would be broken within days due to frustration.Incorrect, at least from where I'm sitting.

But fighters on this are great!
Did they say that? Those games are not in the "expiring soon" section of Plus, like a couple of other discounts.

My only worry on the Vita is 6-button fighters like SFxT -- thought I might cave and buy it outright just to get the characters free on PS3.
I think Super Stardust and maybe Sine Mora are going to be awesome as far as shmups go.. not sure what would cause me to throw my Vita -- maybe a souls game?
Not into sports games myself, but I LOVED Virtua Tennis on DC and Xbox 360. (And Sega's Superstar Tennis) Sega's arcadey gameplay makes it seem more like any other game, you don't bave to be a tennis or sports fan to enjoy the fast action and drama of the game.
Plus the mini-games all feel like seperate, fun experiences, rather than just "more tennis".
If you know the series is not for you, then cool, but don't be caught thinking it's just a sports game.
I like Hot Shots too, mostly because of it's lively, very Japanese style. Even LOSING is happy!
Yeah, Dragons Crown is a big deal for me, as well. I have no PS3 yet, so this is a way I'm gonna play a lot of PS3-favoring series.
Warriors Lair doesn't look THAT different from Dungeon Hunter Alliance, have you tried it? Unlike VT, at least it has a demo....
Since I had a PSP, every Digital PSP purchase for me also lets my brother join me in multiplayer with their purchases. Makes the PSP games really cheap in that respect, 5 or 10 dollars for 2 player anywhere on GEB, Kenka Bancho, Cladun, etc, are all nice bonuses. And we can compete for scores on minis (wish they had true multiplayer...)

Quick Question: Anyone have any opinion on the SNK Arcade collection for PSP? It's fairly expensive, and I know PSP pad + fighters will limit some co-op play titles on that, but how does it feel for Vita? Vita D-pad make the fighters worth playing? I heard Shock Troopers has some lag, but actually lags less than the PS2 one? (I have the PS2 version, which I enjoy). 16 games for the price still isn't too bad, and I doubt they'd go on sale soon? (Though I'd be happy if they did...)

If you're getting it partially for the characters, it's a great deal since it also comes with the first set of costumes, correct? That's, like, $35 right there. But I see where you're coming from, when playing SFA3, I'm having a bit of trouble hitting the left trigger because my hands are fairly small and the position just... isn't natural, I feel I have to crane my index finger to do a heavy punch.
I wouldn't throw it, I'd probably just forcefully smack it, thus causing my Vita and I to start going to marriage counseling and possibly get a divorce.
Rayman Origin is the 2D platformer of the generation, Donkey Kong Country Returns is just another random overhyped Wii game that got overhyped to the moon just because it was made by an overrated developer who made an FPS series which the first game of it was really good but the other two were not so much.
Sounds Awesome, and action packed. Isn't there a Sea of Trees one coming soon?
I was looking at that game when it first came out, and then I saw Mark's review and I ran out and bought a copy.
It really is that good.
You are crazy, sir.
Game has totally grown on me, too; and I think I lot of it has to do with the Vita's flawless d-pad.
I just started the second half of the game and, to be quite honest, the game is now on equal footing with DKCR in terms of epic gameplay. Keep at it, man--you'll only continue to fall further in love with.
Fall in Japan but I am 85% sure Sea of Trees will come over too
Also make sure to try out God eater Burst, way more friendly and open to any gamer.
It's by a different studio, who'se really solid at emulation. I'm so torn on the SNK Minis. I just wish they had multiplayer! :/ Otherwise, I'd be an instant fan, and probably own most of them...
Thanks though! I bet it looks great on Vita
I saw the info before the edit, lol.
Yeah, Dungeon Hunters might not be worth 40, but I think it'd be fun if you can find it cheaper / on sale. I just tried the demo, though, and didn't felt it felt nearly as cheap as I'd expected it to.
can't disagree!
You're either doing something incredibly wrong OR you're blinded by fanboy-ism. Either way, I actually feel sorry for you.
Saw a few vids on God eater and I was checking on the sequel but only found a few screenshots. I think its coming to PSP. I may check God Eater out when I get paid if I can put Sound Shapes down.
Yup,same thing can be said about VT4 ($40 on Vita, 15 to $20 on consoles),there is a real pricing issue with Vita software.
GE2 disappeared for some unknown reasons, it's not cancelled but Bamco showed absolutely nothing from it in ages now.
so I feel it left the PSP somehow(maybe going 3DS since MH fans are on there now??) I dunno.
God eater came out in Japan only then it got re-released and called God eater burst which came over to NA. God Eater 2 has been announce as well which was probably the screen you were looking at.

Nice, thanks -- maybe a little rich for my blood at the moment, but I'll keep it in mind. And yes, most of Rayman's music was excellent.
Unfortunately, I already bought all the alt costumes from pack 1, but not for the new characters possibly... but still, if I pay $20 for the DLC, I'd rather pay an extra $20 and have a portable copy on my Vita. My major problem with this approach though is that the new characters come out in a week, but the Vita version doesn't release until October. :\
And I've always been terrible on non 6-button controllers for 6-button games, like SFII on the SNES. I always mapped MP/MK to the shoulder buttons and then never used them. LOL That's not quite an option in fighters anymore though.
I was actually thinking about importing Lord of Apocalypse, which I hear is Lord of Arcania with updated graphics. I might try the new DJ Maxx game.
Yeah, Y's is a good seller for XSEED, plus the president of Falcom wants it released outside of Japan so Westerners can play it.

You know which game would be great on Vita?
Lol
It's mainly for developers and tech savvy people right now. I would think most people should just wait for the final version.
