The Yakuza Ishin app could be played without owning the actual game, so I imagine the same will be true for 0's.
That's nice. I wasn't sure I'd be able to keep my progress from the original game. Would be interesting to know how chapters work.
Original Toukiden had Chapters 1-5 as the story and 6-7 were post-game content. I doubt they're going to force people to play those two chapters to get to the new Kiwami content. Hope those aren't erased, I completed most of them
It's a standard pricing practice. Homeconsoles games usual price is 60/$. Handheld games prices are 40/$. Same happened with One Piece Unlimited World Red IIRC.
Actually, I'm ok with it. If the game costs 40 I can easily find it at 30-35 on some online retailer. Since I don't have a PS4 I'm buying both this game and One Piece for Vita.
Yakuza Ishin was not necessary to play the companion app, but if you wanted to advance after a certain point you needed to link it with Yakuza Ishin, so i guess that the same will be with Zero.
The Yakuza Ishin companion app was one of the best looking Vita games, awesome, long and meaty even without linking with Yakuza Ishin, it was totally worth it(and probably the closest thing to a Yakuza game on Vita
) and i bet the same will be with Yakuza Zero.CaptainTiptop

That Yakuza Zero app looks pretty cool. If Ishin and Zero on PS4/PS3 come out in the west I wonder if the apps will as well.
Probably not. :/

Is there some sort of renaissance happening for the vita in Japan? Holy hell that's a lot of Japanese games lol.

Vita always had... a life in Japan. However, it doesn't have a tenth of its importance in the West compared to Japan. Basically, it's expected for Japan to be coming up with tons and tons of Vita games.

Yeah, I mean for the most part all handheld support comes out of Japan, but I mean how are the sales doing over there? I know it's abysmal in the States, and I'm assuming Europe.
They don't?

It routinely places second in the weekly sales charts, after the 3DS - though it does about 1/3rd of the 3DS' sales. Portables make a lot of sense in Japan - 1/4 of the population lives in and around Tokyo, where real estate is very expensive so most people have long train commutes to work/school. Combine that with small Japanese homes where you might not have multiple TVs or space for long console gaming sessions with the rest of the family right around you, and strict parents who won't let their kids play for long times while they're under their watchful eyes, and suddenly having a Playstation that you can stick in your pocket and play in your room or on the train makes a lot of sense. That was a big part of the PSP's success.
Maybe because you can't differentiate them?

MS should advertise the Surface Pro as a gaming device over there. I once could not stop 1 more turning I ended up playing Civ 5 in the metro...

No games at all, just empty shelves...
Apologies for the quality, also I've added 15+ imports after taking those photo's but I'm just too lazy to take another set just yet! I'm collecting for the format which is why I have such amazing games as "Muppets Movie Adventures" and "Tadeo Jones 1&2". My goal is to collect and play every Vita game, I've played the above three and to save others the trouble, don't buy them unless your as crazy as I am.

Same here (also got Mk9 and Rayman at launch, but they are collecting dust somewhere). I was never big on digital, but the Vita made it surprisingly cheap and easy for me. Which makes the whole account switching trouble even more of a shame, since it could have been so much more. :/
But nice collections!
no physical release

Why is Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax on the upcoming games section? Wasn't that one released a while ago? Also, my humble collection:
Hoping to add a Steins;Gate LE (pls) and XBlaze: Lost Memories if it comes out!

Same situation, just four games. Except its Tales of Hearts R, Tearaway, Persona 4 Golden, and Danganronpa 2. I'm planning on adding VLR to the mix, but there's no way I'll ever compete with the shelves people are posting
.Man I can't help but envy those physical collections. I don't necessarily regret going all digital on Vita, but it would be nice to occasionally glance over at the shelf and see all my Vita games.
Or, I wish they'd provide an option to view my Vita games 'Steam style', where an icon for every title I own is visible, but uninstalled titles are greyed out. I often forget that I own certain titles, so they just sort of 'disappear' into the black hole that is my backlog.

There should be an elegant way to display your entire collection, 'steam style' as you put it - the 'download list' is just a shambles: looks ugly, no alternate views for release date/publisher/type etc., sluggish to load... it really lets down the notion of owning a digital collection on Vita.

I'm still so butthurt that I missed out on the LE for this game. It's insane what it's going for on some sites like Nippon-Yasan.

My worst regret is buying Motorstorm RC complete edition, now I have 20 pieces of DLCs for both the PS3 and the Vita showing in my download list. I just want the option to at least sort out games and DLCs.
And since we're posting libraries here's mine (sorry for the quality)

Oh boy I'm jealous of those collections. I only have dozen or so games in boxes since i have to sell those that I finished to buy new ones.

I really should have preordered Muramasa. I have to complete edition for 20 dollars during the complete edition sales but it's just not the same.
Such of a beautiful game.
On Multiple occasions I've had to go through the entire download list of all the games and DLC I've ever bought when I need to redownload things. It sucks.

Hah, that's small fry compared to some Vita JRPGS which have so much DLC they could probably use a download list all to themselves!
I see that you're not playing Idol M@ster.
Beautiful Vita collections!
Mine's mostly digital these days but I've got physical copies of
Ys MoC
Persona 4G
Toukiden
Demon Gaze
Dragon's Crown
Tales of Hearts R
FFX HD
Child of Light
Freedom Wars
Natural Doctrine
taking pride of place on my shelf. Some of the box art for Vita games is pretty sweet too. I think the typography of Natural Doctrine and Child of Light are my favourites so far.

My Vita retail physical collection in only 4 games long. I have over 100 Vita games. Digital all the way. Conveniencefor the win. Bubbles over boxes.

I really want to know the size and number of the memory cards you use.

And this, my friends, is why Fady K deserves to be paid for this thread. It's more effective than (what probably is) the janitor closet called the "Vita Advertising Department" in the Sony HQ.

Someone posted in the Vita thread that a retail release may come out after the game's initial digital release.

My problem (if you could call it that) is that I own so many digital games that its taking up almost all of the 64GB on my card (I'm sure a portion is patches though) so I also buy physically to avoid quickly filling the card up. I do sorta miss the convenience at times of being able to switch to any game on the fly though.
There's a news story about Ys 8 on the Vita Lounge- apparently It's aiming for a September release in Japan.

So beautiful Vita collections.
My physical collection is: Freedom Wars, Borderlands 2, an empty box of Uncharted Golden Abyss, MGS HD cart and Assassin's Creed III Liberation cart, no boxes of those. Is a strange collection lol

I don't know, I spend a good three hours a day on trains, and my games sit in a box at the back of the wardrobe due to shelf space being something of a valuable commodity at home. Convenience>stuff for me, but I still take my (vastly trimmed down) games collection out for a rummage for something good that I haven't played in ages whenever I finish something new.

Ok so nowhere near every game fits on the memory card. It's not perfect, but it's still better than switching carts and I can still fit quite a lot on there. The stuff I cant fit on there I'm pretty sure I'll never want to play again anyway. But yeah I have a 64gb.
