I'd like a Slain LRG release - but as the PS4 version is already getting a very nice physical release via another company I'm not too confident at the Vita version getting a physical release
Which is a pity, as I love the game and the PS4 port but would much rather have a physical Vita release for my collection (that is assuming the Vita port is decent of course).nisa has so many games to announce. hero must die and hayarigami might never happen, but other nis stuff should be locked down pretty hard. their press event is going to be pretty crazy.
there is probably one more announcement between now and then too, judging by the nintendo switch 3rd-party list. i doubt vita fans care about that much though.
"The Other stuff" are:
Coven
Hero Must Die
Princess is Money Hungry
Danganronpa V3 (huge title, should have priority)
Unless they announce a game until then, the February event should have all of four. We didn't get Hero Must Die now because porting to PC could be tricky. And it's pretty early for Coven, considering they just announced Operation Babel.
And despite being an official partner, I don't expect NIS to develop for Switch. Their last Nintendo game was Disgaea DS years ago and I don't expect them to return to Nintendo all of sudden, especially for Switch.
I feel for Kresnik.
The Witch and The Hundred Knight 2, Demon Gaze 2
and UtaPri
there's also witch and the hundred knight 2. they could save that for anime expo though.
i personally would love to see hero must die happen. that and coven are the two i see the most buzz about. i think it might have something to do with the name. it also reviewed well in japan, but i'm not sure how it plays.
what else would it mean that nis's logo appeared on nintendo's list of developers then? most of the companies on those things make at least one game for nintendo platforms.
also their last nintendo games was slightly more recent than disgaea ds. they did phantom brave: we meet again for the wii and some weird puzzle or adventure thing for the 3ds. the company started making a shitload of games for vita and ps3 after that.

Thanks bro. I hear Ani's hinting loud and clear
Maybe he can take this sentiment back to his mates and make something happen:
Lol. Ah well, it's fairly cheap to import.
Anyway, assuming NDRV3 happens next year, I'm pretty happy with NISA's output over Vita's lifespan. Disappointed they never tried Fuuraiki (although I know that was an extreme ask) and HMD will sting, but otherwise they've done really well.
Coven and DG2 would be lovely bonuses, but honestly VN's are my favourite genre on Vita right now so I'd honestly they rather try something in that region.
Also great news about Slain. It's nice that we're having a run of indies lately finally delivering their products. Shame we had to go through such a crappy period a while back.

Witch and the hundred knight 2 is a thing. Ugh.

Was about to post this. Apparently Laura Kate Dale said it's coming to Switch in the first 6 months and NISA are handling the PS4 release.
Anyway, here's some news (ish):

I think the PS4/Vita port on disc is news. Wonder what it is. Also I wonder when VA-11 HALL-A is happening.
He's standing right behind Coven and Shin Hayarigami 2, lol...

That's exactly what I replied to the tweet with, haha. Great minds!
I'm so sad he's not standing behind Hero Must Die...
HMD and SH2 (most likely) do not fall under 'intend to localize every game'
.
It's totally the same thing!
hayarigami would have made sense if the first three came over, but they didn't. so now you're stuck with the most recent game being a direct sequel to a spinoff of the original trilogy which is more about grossing you out than it is about horror. that's a confusing project to undertake and a really weird place to start people in a long-running franchise.

>wants to localize every game

NISA pls
>doesn't localize Hero Must Die
NISA pls
the nis ceo said they intend to localize very game. that's soheii niikawa. he's not the nisa ceo.
still don't know much about hero must die. it looks repetitive though.
So coming into this thread after a while, how are you all doing ?
*Looks through AniHawk's Posts*
Welp, looks like I missed out on a lot XD.
Glad to hear NIS America has a lot in-store for the future. Shame to hear that Hero Must Die might not come over though; I was looking forward to it personally.

So... Any chance of seeing Lara Croft Go getting ported to the Vita? I just started Hitman Go and I'm instantly loving it, such a cool concept (seems like the perfect pick up and play portable title). It might be hoping for too much, but maybe we'll get a announcement at PSX next month?

LaraCroft GO is the best of the three. Deus Ex is a huge let down imo. I already beat all three of them on iPad but will replay on Vita just like I did with Hitman GO. Got the plat also.

Good to hear. If I don't get a Vita port I'll probably grab it for my iPad - as these actually do seem like the type of games where touch based controls would work well. But I'd still rather have it on my Vita!
Grim Patron

absolutely get it on iPad asap. It is amazing. Worth double dipping for trophies later. Itll run much better on your iPad as well. Unity and all.
It's metroidvania exploration with turn-based RPG combat and Demon Gaze art. A few years ago, it'd be more of NISA's alley than something like Yomawari.
So that means every game going forward, not including past games?
It's totally the same thing!
But that's not 5pb.
I kinda preferred the art of the original HMD, although the new art is more typical of NISA. I thought the game's story was somewhat minimalist, which would make it easy to localize, a bit like Yomawari. Am I wrong?

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Apparently in Japan HMD is a hit or miss game with people due to the way its designed. Fans who picked it up were either those who played the mobile version or fans of Kurosawa Tetsu's artwork.
Dont blame NISA if they are unsure to localize it or not.

Localization costs money. Then you have to think of the schedule with current planned releases and how would said title fit into that schedule. On top of if said title would even be profitable.
Honestly they are far better off trying to bring out titles that they think would sell rather than just dragging everything and anything over. Which as folks have seen they already do not do with how other NIS developed titles were not brought out to the West.
In short its not a matter of localization being easy or not, more a matter if it will sell / fit into the schedule.

Which is why I still don't understand World's Longest Five Minutes speedy western announcement given the level it bombed in Japan and its sales potential in the west.

Anyway, is this massive news? I feel it's massive news.

From what I can tell, they're the company who did retail releases of Aragami; Slain and Super Meat Boy on PS4.

Weren't those available on Amazon and other retailers? Are they as limited as LRG?

Aaaaah, this is awesome! They're already asking about Slain on Vita. https://twitter.com/SigEditionGames/status/800655366765871104.
Yeah, looks like their 'Signature Edition' of Aragami was on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZOD2NZ/?tag=neogaf0e-20
Even if any potential Vita releases end up being exclusive to the publisher's own site, they do pre-orders well in advance. https://signatureeditiongames.com/

Speaking of Play-Asia, they also increased the cost of DQ Builders by $3.

Wouldn't be surprised if they did that so that they can offer a $3 discount somewhere in the future. ;-)
Like the $3 coupons you can find anywhere and use how many times you want?

Prices for Asian version games on PA change all the time. This isn't a conspiracy
Dungeon Travelers 2-2 is coming out on April 20 in Japan. Wonder whether we'll get this in the West.

Probably not. Would be a nice surprise if we did though.
Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~ will release Spring 2017 in NA & EU for Vita! @ Aksys' twitter.
