imagine this OP being cut!
It wouldn't hurt too bad as they got to the later openings, which are just okay. The series knows where it's bread is buttered and it ends with an EXTENDED version of Smile Bomb.
The GOAT opening. So perfect
I want it!
I bought it to play Danganronpa. It will probably end up being a Danganronpa and Zero Escape machine.
Vita can do Crunchyroll? How is it?

I thought SNK only made slot games but a new Mark of the Wolves would be nice.
Ugh, yeah, I had to spend $100 on a 32GB card at launch with my system. Hurts even more now that we know the prototype originaly would've used SD cards.
Now it's a shame that the releases are either slowing down or I just get them for PS4. I think the only Vita games right now that I can think of that I want are Zero Time Dilemma & Danganronpa V3.
Edit: Oh, right, I'm waiting for the Vita version of Puyo Puyo Tetris to arrive, & I still need to finish Steins;Gate on it as well. Just keep getting distracted with my other backlog stuff, & tomorrow isn't helping with 2 more PS4 games.

Has the Vita really been the failure people describe it as?
Surely it's been successful somewhere.

It does fine in Japan, by the standards of what the Japanese market is for non-mobile games is these days
Even there it's no big deal. Hell it was nearly dead in the water until Minecraft came along.
That might be the most worrysome thing about the Vita as a viable product, arguably it's two biggest hits are Minecraft and Persona 4 Golden. Great games to be sure, but they're kinda, you know, of the late port variety.
EDIT: The perfect TOONAMI comparison for Vita might be how One Piece is treated in the west.

I remember people lambasting the Vita early in its lifecycle for having too many ports.
There were probably too many ports, but at the same time, it probably made some business sense. Sony was trying to put big names on the Vita quickly.
In comparison, while the 3DS probably has a better line up now, it had a genuinely awful launch line up.

Oh yeah, the first year of the 3DS was ROUGH. Didn't help we had to wait for the eShop & the VC titles.
Hell, for the most part, the first year for ANY console is rought because companies are still learning how to develop for the new hardware. I don't get why people don't understand this & always complain about systems being "dead on arrival."

Resogun is fun but it in no way is substantial enough for me to want to run the same content over and over nearly as long as a full length game.
On paper, the Vita launch line-up was kind of incredible. You had a sequel to the best game on the original PSP (Lumines: Electronic Symphony), you had multiple first party franchises that people liked (Hot Shots, Uncharted, Wipeout), you had quality ports of console games (Rayman Origins), you had legitimate quality sports titles, which have never been done on a portable (FIFA, Virtua Tennis 4, and if we cheat and include games that came a week after launch, MLB 12), you had some really good/intresting downloadable games (Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack, Escape Plan, Super Stardust), you had fighting games that played well (Blazblue and UMVC3), and you still had a dozen of lower quality games also out as well.
Like, if you ask me, it had the best launch line-up of any console ever. With the exception of JRPG and FPS, there was something worth playing from all generas..
Completely unrelated, I'm kind of shocked that Rise of the Tomb Raider didn't get more love last year. I'm playing it now that it's on PC (I'm getting close to the end I think), and I have enjoyed it more than anything else I played last year. They took everything wrong with the last game and fixed it!
PSP was my MP3 & video player throughout high school after my Zune's motherboard was burnt out (took it apart during Electronics class to see why it stopped working).
Though the memory card for that was ALSO a pain/pricey. What is it with Sony's portable devices & memory cards?

Unfortunately none of those are games people actually wanted to play on a handheld.

I'm in for ZTD, Digimon, Muv Luv, new YS and Cold Steel 2 (and hopefully every other trails game). Vanillaware's new game looks cool too though i wanna see more first.
Vita still got a good amount of games coming that i want to play. It gets more use than most of my other consoles.

$100 for a 64GB Vita memory card is absurd.
At least the Vita itself only costed me 100 bucks as well.

Yep, Sony developed the Vita to be a console replacement- kind of like those big desktop replacement laptops. It's a device designed for Japan, where people don't have giant TVs and prefer handhelds, it's designed for travelers, ect. I'm really sad it never took off, because I would always prefer to play something portably than on a console/PC. I wish we had gotten more console game ports, and received them day and date, because I wanted to play them on Vita.
It's a device that was designed for a market that really doesn't exist. I love it, but I know I'm in the vast minority.

Aww.
But really I'm the only one whos noticed?! for shame ToonamiGAF for forgetting the weirdness that is Mako Tsunami.
The Series 1 movie thats coming right? care to go into detail?
I'm interested in Metabots again guys.
Problem is with the fact I have a PS4 now, I'd rather go for the console version of certain games over the slightly downgraded Vita version. Granted, there's still some games I'd rather get on Vita, like VN-style games like Danganronpa or Steins;Gate, or games that feel better as short-burst plays.
I will say, as always with Sony consoles, 3rd party support was great, especially with companies localizing titles (still waiting for Xseed to bring over Net High & Uppers).
I remember the Metabots show on Fox, but I never actually played the games. Might've had a few of the toys, since I remember you could customize them.

Just not caring for its style, or does something about the show bug you?
What's the matter in your view?

I'm so confused with how much the AgK anime covers of the manga, it starts going into non canon with stuff from the manga rearranged and spliced in
Is that uncommon for anime? I think we've seen a few gecko endings on Toonami that do something similar (like Soul Eater).

It used to be way more common but not so much anymore.

Yes, Esdeath saves and stuff.
Then watch as in the very next episode, he dies. Because Akame ga Kill....ed him.praise our lord and savior

These last episodes don't even have any of that vintage edge. They're trying to make us feel for these characters.
This show should have just been about her.

So what do we have to do to save Tatsumi? Tweet with the hashtag? *furiously reports all tweets with the hashtag*
