GE2RB is actually far more likely now that there's a PS4 version. There is no market for that game on PS4 in Japan so I can't see them not localizing it. Vita (at least digital) version would be a stone's throw away.

Only Natural Doctrine and Freedom Wars, but I generally buy tons of indies/psn games rather than retail releases. More budget friendly, and generally better suited to my tastes. If I could afford it, I'd be buying most though.
Tales of Hearts R is getting localized because of huge fan demand. Of course it's going to sell enough. Tales of Innocence as well as Tales of the world: Reve Unitia are pretty much locked.
God Eater 2 Burst is already announced for localization for Asia in English. Same situation with SAO, rest of the world will get it with Asian English translation and digital only.
PSN has actually has a shot. It's a big project, very expensive to make. SEGA won't take any chances and release it worldwide for max profits. They did this before. It's not like PSO2, it's not F2P and there are no server costs.
Real long lost dream on that list is Stranger of Sword City. 5pb published the game in Japan and they're not known to release their games overseas. All of the western publishers, Atlus, XSEED, Aksys, NISA are pretty busy right now, they'll probably skip this one.

Looks like Adventure Time: The Secret of the Nameless Kingdom is coming to Vita in November. Bit of a sudden announcement, and there's no word yet if it'll get a physical release or just digital.

Ok, good to hear. I'm going to keep an eye on this one then.
Hopefully there is a physical release for NA/EU.
Wishing everyone here a beautiful day ahead 
Here are some updates for all of you
*Upcoming SEGA RPG Phantasy Star Nova will contain crossovers from Valkyrie Profile and Star Ocean.
*A very, very small update for Minecraft on the Vita, but hey, it's an update nevertheless It recently received an ESRB rating so it should be coming sooner than later.
*Thanks to Infernal Monkey, who broke the news here that Adventure Time: The Secret of the Nameless Kingdom will be coming to the Vita
* Natural Doctrine , the new strategy RPG from Kadokawa Games and the publishers of the Disgaea games, NIS America, has gotten a very glowing review from RPGamer, one of the better RPG-reviewing sites. They gave it a 4.0 out of 5. Gamespot on the other hand gave it a 4 out of ten .
*RPG fans, upcoming Vita RPG from Marvelous Luminous Arc Infinity , a lot of new details have been shared, great article up on RPG Fan.
That is awesome news! Thanks for the info.
Glad to hear that it isn't an MMO or online-only The style is indeed awesome, attracted me to the game immediately.
Plenty to love about indeed, always nice to see a Vita owner who enjoys and appreciates the huge library ^^
Thanks a lot for your kind words bro, and thanks for contributing as well!! I have all the games on your list save for Flowers and Heroes of Infinity (do you happen to have any images for those?)
The fact that RE:R2 did not confirmed for the Vita on TGS kills any hopes I had :[
As they are not that cheap, maybe you can wait for a good sale Not sure if there is a bundle for them at the moment. I hope you get to enjoy them someday when you're in the mood for some scary storytelling
No need to be sorry man You always try to help
Thanks for sharing the info on Bombing Bastards! Had no idea it was coming. Added
The last few games they localized in the mana series weren't anything special at all :[ Secret of Mana 4 (called Dawn of Mana) turned out to be such a dud. There was one for the GBA and one for the DS that was localized and they were average IMO. The best ones were likely the original that you remember (Secret of Mana) and Seiken Densetsu 3 (which never came out in English officially). Hopefully this one is good!
So true, and we keep adding new games to the list every week nowadays Stay tuned for all upcoming announcements and updates.
It sure is
When you say ports do you also mean indie games? In that case are you looking for full-Vita exclusives only that don't include visual novels?
Thanks again Infernal Monkey This came out of nowhere indeed. wonder if WayForward is developing this.

Seems like Bombing Bastards is coming to Vita too(Add it to the list Fady man!)

As a married man, here's a tip I'd like to share when you face such a situation: many games on the Vita get great sales (and become free on PS+ eventually), so if you're ever on a tight situation, pick up games on sale instead till your situation picks up ;D

I doubt this will be released this year. Probably spring 2015, but don't quote me on that
.I'm happy to see there's an interest in the game though!
I have the Japanese version, but I'm probably going to buy the US/EU versions of this game as well to show my support. Probably a futile effort though, but hoping for the best.
The game has apparently been trademarked in Europe, so that could be an indication that it's heading west, but who knows? With the exception of Seiken Densetsu 3, S-E has released all console Mana games stateside, so since it's also heading for Vita I'd say there's a chance it might?
Me to S-E:
Yeah, they seriously blew it with the Mana series. You can see the series gradually getting worse after the first Mana game (SD2).
SD3 was great, but it didn't have a 3-player option. I hear you can remedy this with a patch though (don't forget you have to own the original game, kids), so it's not a big deal.
Legend of Mana had a 2-player option, and the graphics/music were awesome, but player 2 was a slave. My main gripe with it is that every battle screen is a square-shaped arena with up to 3 monsters in it. There's literally no variation to this concept. I know there's a defense force on neogaf for this game with the prerequisite that you finish the game and unlock hard mode though, so I have to try that sometime. I've gotten very far into the game, but I seem to always lose my way and get bored with it.
After that I kind of lost interest in the series. I've never had the pleasure of trying Dawn of Mana, but from what I've heard it's not very good. Children of Mana seemed promising at least.
I think what makes me sceptical about the new game is that it doesn't really have the look of a Mana game, but on the other hand the combat looks pretty fun, so I'm hoping it's at least an ok game.

I really don't think that just because internet demand was big for Hearts R that it automatically means it's going to sell well. We've already seen a huge sales drop off between Xillia 1 -> Xillia 2. I'm hopeful that the fact that it's subbed is going to mean they'll have to target lower sales anyway, but still - I'm not hopeful about the game.
Is the Asian version of GE2B getting an English sub? Didn't know that, fair enough then.
And I just don't see SEGA translating any text heavy games these days. They skip every Yakuza release. They skip Shining. I don't see why PSN would be any difference - especially given the Vita's anemic userbase in the west.
NISA are the only ones I can see taking a tumble on Stranger of Sword City, and I don't think Demon Gaze sold particularly well in the west. Then again, shipment numbers don't make a lot of sense for the game (I think it's 200k worldwide, of which only about ~ 100k are sold-through in Japan).
I really do hope I'm wrong about all this. I love my Vita; I love Japanese games and would really love all four of these in the west (Innocence R and Phantasy Star would be day 1 purchases for me). But I'm just not all that hopeful. I think NISA/XSEED/Aksys will keep soldiering on with the niche stuff but I have less faith in the bigger pubs.
If they do come across, though, then all the better for me!
No info yet my friend. However, like most Vita release dates, it will likely be announced a few weeks prior to the actual release date.
Agreed. A 3 player option by default would have been great for SD3. All in all, I love the co-op feature in Secret of Mana and hope to see such a feature utilized more in RPGs
I recall Legend of Mana's beautiful watercolor art-graphics and lovely melodies; never got to play it much. I was very surprised by how much Square-Enix screwed up Dawn of Mana, because it *looked* great at first!
I agree, it does look a bit different and I'm worried by the quality of the overall game and design since it is a "free to play" game (or will it be different for the Vita version?).

The last Way of the Samurai game was localized by XSeed, right? Did it do well? Think there's a chance these will be localized?

Just a head up, Way of the Samurai for PS3 and Vita will be different. PS3 version is Ukiyo no Shishi (憂世ノ志士
I hope this doesn't mean the Vita version is just a Yakuza Ishin-esque companion app.
XSEED were pretty good about bringing Way of the Samurai across. Wonder what chance this stands.

Working fine for me.
I don't think PSN being "text heavy" won't be a problem for Sega, since they're already localizing the game to Chinese. Most of the local Asian game releases also include English language option if they get a Chinese language release. Plus Sega's overseas release calendar empty, it wouldn't surprise me if they announce PSN localization one of these days.
What, no way. Most of time It's just Chinese or Chinese/ Korean. If there's a english release, want to save cost, they'll put all in one.
I wish I had the gif on hand, everyone who makes this majestic purpose deserves it. Welcome to the awesome club.
*New Vita game: Shu is coming to the Vita courtesy of Coatsink Software. It is a 2.5D platformer where you play as hand drawn characters ^^ (The game is inspired by Klonoa and Oddworld)
*Here are some new images of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth , developed by Media Vision (makers of the Wild Arms and Chaos Rings games).
*Here's a new trailer for One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 from Omega Force, creators of the Dynasty Warriors games as well as Hyrule Warriors for the WiiU.

Both Yakuza Zero and Shining Resonance got announced for Asian release in Chinese without any English language option. What games are you basing that statement on?

I really wish those kiseki games would make it to the west.

Likewise!! For now, at least we'll be getting the Second game in the first trilogy ;D
Most of other Chinese language releases did have English as an option, or a standalone English version. If Sega releases these games in Chinese but not in English, that would be a really stupid move. But I can see them doing so, actually. We should wait and see.
Pretty sure they will, since it's a normal thing to do. Did you miss the Sen no Kiseki II?
Hope they'll get funded. I really love the art style ....
What kickstarter is this for?
Kodoku Chronicles, a Horror Visual novel.

I really wanted a 32 GB memory card, but it seems to be the worst priced of the bunch (with it going for more than $2 per GB). Meanwhile, I found a new 16 GB memory card for $18 on Ebay, so I guess I'll stick with that until I either see some mega sale or decide to buy a second one.
