Vita Video Reveals Spring Window For Oreshika 2, Helldivers, Hotline 2, Shovel Knight
- Thread starter Takao
- Start date
That, and looks like digital sales are enough for them to not bother with physical releases anymore. The digital sales surely are not superb, but it looks like keeping a small retail presence is not worth the effort.
Retail people needs to start crying.
I don't even know how the hell could Vita keep getting retail titles as long as it have.
Digital makes sense, it's easier to distribute and cheaper to keep the costs down.
I, for one, welcome the digital era (unless I keep finding cheap games on garbage bins/great sales).

I can finally play Shovel Knight on a system I actually want to play it on (Vita or PS4). Most likely gonna get Hotline Miami 2 on Vita, especially if there's gonna be a cross-buy/cross-save thing.
We'll get our release date. Just you wait. Steins;Gate needs to be successful so its success can help open a strange gate of Vita VN localizations

Oreshika better be good.
Atlus, XSEED, NISA, Aksys, etc. still release all their Vita stuff at retail, for the most part. Sales must be good enough for them to keep doing it. I buy everything retail as long as there is one, I have like 30 retail games and I'm still using the 16GB memory card I got at launch.
Do asian-region games work flawlessly on NA Vita? (Including Trophy support, etc.)
Yes, you can get patches fine as well. You wouldn't be able to get DLC without switching memory cards, though.
I really hope Helldivers is cross buy. I will play the shit out of the Vita version but if I have buddies over it would be nice to play it on my PS4.
In Europe, I can only dream about PS Now at the moment. Hope it works well. Might consider a subscription if the library is well and it works fine.

Man, I've been waiting for Helldivers for what feels like ages.

Hey, it's only been like ten months since Oreshika was announced for localization.

Indeed, the wait has been painful.
It's great. One of the best games on the Vita, IMO, exclusive or not.

Man I saw Oresheika 2 and got super excited that the Vita title did so well they greenlit a sequel. Then I remembered the Vita game is #2 in the series. Ah well, after hearing nothing on the title for almost a year after it was announced for the west, this is great news. I need release dates on all those titles like now.

I just want Hotline Miami 2.
I couldn't care less about the other games.

Just Toukiden and Oreshika 2 (import) for me. Maybe Hotline Miami 2 and Shovel Knight.
Kinda OT, but I've always wondered; what are they doing in this gif? Looks like they're squeezing a tube of toothpaste(?) into another one. Why are they so happy about this?

I would be tempted to pick up a few of these but between all the releases in spring (notably Bloodborne, Type-0 and Witcher) I really don't have time nor money to consider.
A shame, because Oreshiki is the kind of niche game I really want to see more of.

Oreshika is all I want.
Too bad that's going to be digital only it seems.
At least it should only be 30.

Can't wait for Oreshika 2 and Hotline Miami 2.
You still have your Vita? I thought you already sold yours since it only has port on otaku games.
There's way more games coming out, maybe more then any other console or handheld, there's even a thread specifically designed to showcase them but you would know of you truly cared.

It's from a music video, I think they're squeezing glue in to an empty toothpaste tube as a prank. I can't remember the source but was linked to it on Reddit once after enquiring about this same gif.

You should be excited for olli olli 2 and hlm2, vita is the best place to play these.

His comment is entirely justified. I love my Vita but where's the support? I want recognizable PlayStation franchises.

Hey I had edited it! Still, the sentiment is lame to me. HLM2, Olli Olli 2 should not be discredited just because they are multi platform. Oreshika looks special too, and there are other releases outside of the ones highlighted here.
What support, a lame uncharted or god of war game? There is plenty of original content out for Vita.. Id love to see Sony go nuts and announce Tokyo Jungle, demons souls ,... Vita, but it is just not going to happen. This has been known for years now.
Oh I do care, way more than Sony at least.
Wait, so that's the new argument to dismiss opinions? that I don't care enough about the system I bought with my own money? :lol
What am I? a bad Vita parent now?
"Oh I care so much about my Vita I'm glad it's getting games at all, even though I'm not interested in most of them"
Is that better guys?
Well, at least there is an Asia version and I doubt this game will have "important" DLCs, so we can import that version and call it a day.
It'll be more expensive though
From that list, the only must have purchase for me is Toukiden Kiwami. I still have plenty of games released last year that I need to buy and play though, so no worries.

No it's not, is acting like those are all the upcoming Vita games which is false. And as for the recognizable Playstation franchise all the big one are already there except Gran Turismo and GTA and we both know no new would will come because no one bothered to buy the one that are available.

Oh yeah. Seeing it here was mostly wishful thinking on my part but I absolutely want the genre to be successful on that platform.
Olli Olli 2 yes, HLM2 nope, I rather play it on PC.

That's good to hear.
Well....yes those do make a huge part of the library. Yet, I keep it for the small chance there's games like Oreshika. Games Sony can't even bother to release physically, even though they are far more "noteworthy".
Nope, i find m+kb to be superior than the little dual sticks for Hotline Miami. Better precision, and wider view with a monitor.
Anyways, i'm wary of buying indie games on vita. Wait a few months and most of these upcoming indies will be free on Plus.
Kiwami yes, not confirmed yet but most likely no for Oreshika

We got them, people didn't buy them. The end. That this system is still getting a large influx of games in any shape or form is incredible.
Dammit. Freedom Wars didn't sell enough for them huh.
