Uggh, all the local Gamestops in town/@ the mall pulled all their Vita game sections from their mods... It was a very sad moment for me to walk into multiple stores with no Vita section anymore...

They said they would still take pre orders but were no longer dedicating shelf space...

It's not really shelf space. They just leave it at the side, like they do with the PC section.

The mall stores said they shipped their copies out... They other store said they pulled them off the shelves and are getting ready to ship them out..
Sucks..

I'm going to check the mall and store by my office next week to see if they pulled them as well.

Strange question, but it's unlikely there will be a GOTY edition of Macross Delta Scramble right?
I want to import it but I know half of the game is free DLC which I won't be able to get without a Japanese PSN account.
I know Bamco don't usually do any re-releases but they've not really released a game with this much extra content before (aside from Taiko I suppose) so wondering whether I should hold off on importing for now.

I think the only re-releases Bamco does are the budget price reprints they release under their Welcome Price label. They don't tend to do "GOTY edition" style ones that bundle in extra content.
(You mention Taiko. That got a budget reprint recently, but that's all it is, a cheaper version of the original).

Taiko didn't have any patches or DLC included in the budget re-release right?
So I should be safe importing now?
Correct, Taiko was just the base game.
So yes, you're probably safe to import it now (as long as you're okay with being unable to access the DLC, or playing around with account switching).
A potential rerelease would probably have a lower price point though if that's something you'd consider.

Cheers for the replies. I'll pick it up now then! Not a fan of the box art on the budget re-releases anyway.

I like it so much I picked up a r3 Chinese text copy in Singapore to go on the shelf next to my JP copy. Superb game.

Yeah, it looks exactly like my kind of thing. I've enjoyed Artdink's other stuff and I'm a sucker for a mech action game.
OT: Rainbite have a Vita dev kit. From what I can tell they're an indie dev who made a Hotline Miami clone called "Slick: Ruff Justice". Though obviously I have no idea if it's that game, might me something else:

Exile election first details and screens

You can freely choose who to exile, so in that sense it's closer to lost dimension than to danganronpa.

Apparently it's an action-RPG or Zelda-like game.
Not quite sure what makes that unique on Vita, but it looks nice enough.
edit: Shizuka will hate me for posting a third time in a row so I'll just edit this post:

I wrote an article last year about porting studios on Vita. I'm going to do a new one around halfway through the year, but I just thought I'd check in on some of my favourite studios from that list and it's fairly interesting:
- Blitworks, who I think very highly of, are handling Talisman: Digital Edition on Vita. Didn't realise it was them doing it!
- Code Mystics are handling Banner Saga for Sony, which I find an interesting pick as most of their previous porting work has been emulation stuff. Wonder how they'll handle it.
Sadly, all the rest don't seem to have Vita projects in the work (aside from Sickhead Games with Salt & Sanctuary which we already knew about) but interestingly job listings on Just Add Water's website indicate they're at least still working on something for Vita:
That listing has clearly been updated recently(ish) to include Nintendo Switch so I'm tempted to believe they've still got something in the works for it. I wonder what.

Some interesting bits from the Media Create thread:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=228997229&postcount=864
Accel World vs. SAO will be the final game in the series released on Vita.
I mean, I don't feel too bad, if we get this in the west then we'll have had 4. And Artdink's games are better than Aquira's anyway
, so I'm happy.
I still think they're silly for pushing it as this major console franchise, but there you go.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=228998933&postcount=869
Shift (God Eater developers) are hiring Unity programmers. So, there's at least a chance that God Eater 3 is a Vita game

Unity ewww
Those of you talking about Gamestops, I'm unable to parse out whether you are talking about a specific game, or the entire Vita section. Are your stores shipping all their Vita stuff away and totally washing their hands of it?
I have a few stores in my area and from what I can tell they all still had their Vita stuff up a few weeks ago. Granted its a small little standup thing near the back with like 2 or 3 rows of games on it, but it is there.

The stores in my area got rid of the entire Vita section in the stores... One of the stores still has their games in the drawers, but is no longer dedicating shelf space for them and replaced the mod with toys, figures and trinkets....
Interested to know if this is just my district, or around the country..
Oh man, the part in bold is like every store now. I was thinking about making a skit where you open the door to a Gamestop and Funkopops just come pouring out like water. All of my stores are like 50% "geek culture" shit that I wouldn't be caught dead with. I fully expect the chain to change its name to "GeekStop" somewhere down the line.

They should change their name to Just Stop. I guess they're doing what they gotta do to stay open, but all that Funko Pop crap is just....ugh. Actually, I've never actually seen anyone buying that stuff while I was in a Gamestop, does it actually even sell?
My local Gamestops do still have a Vita section, though.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
When I was state side taking care of some work Best Buy, Walmart, Target pretty much nuked their Vita section.
Oh yeah that's been the case for over a year. You'd be hard pressed to find more than just a single odd Vita game marked for Clearance at those chains since like 2015.

All of the Gamestop's/EB Games in my city do sell Vita games, however most only have 5-9 of them, with at least a copy or two of Xonic.

All of the Gamestops around me still carry a fair amount of Vita games, which is lucky for me as all the other retailers around here seems to have completely abandoned it.

Only one I saw was a lone copy of Terraria which was shoved in a bargin bin of DVDs for some reason.

I wrote an article about this in November but sadly TVL haven't published it yet
Considering 3DS has another year of life yet and the Vita games are basically 3DS ports, I can definitely see it happening. LEGO seems to be branching out from licenced games a lot more but I can still see them being a couple of releases this year.
I certainly hope so. They've been a LOT better since LEGO Batman 3 and I really enjoyed Marvel's Avengers and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Exactly why I think they'll still come. We haven't seen any of their multi-platform-based-on-a-licenced-property games for a while.
I'm expecting a LEGO Batman game. As well as the hinted Guardians of the Galaxy.
Vita finally reached the 1500 games (released + announced) milestone last week.
I LOLed.

Is there a list of consoles which shows the number of released. Vita could be in the top 5?!
As far as I know, Vita is currently number 7, behind PS2, X360, PS3, PS1, DS and PSP.

XSEED have pretty much confirmed they've passed on Uppers. I know they insist that there's been no change in policy and they'll pick up Vita exclusives if they're interested, but I don't believe them. Too many games have been skipped for that to be true.
Save us PQube (interestingly, PQube liked a tweet they were tagged in replying to that message about XSEED passing on it... so I have faith they'll come through for us).
