    Vita TV coming to America might just be the shot in the arm the system needs.

    For $99, it's a god damn steal.

    I'm getting one.

    Depends if they up the compatibility, it's a huge disappointment to my friend who bought it.

    I'm hoping that's part of why they delayed release in the US.

    Alright, something bothered me last night playing Muramasa, and it bothered me trying to play Killzone and Dragons Crown.

    The Vita is shit uncomfortable to play for long periods because my hands are just too fucking big.

    I see you guys talk about 'grips' often. What are these grips and how do I subscribe to your newsletter?

    Get the Nyko grip

    It makes your battery last, like twice as long, and it's pretty comfortable to me

    Only expect Indies from western devs.
    It's the Japanese that are constantly giving the system the heavy hitting games.

    Hey, a couple of indies and remakes!

    PS NOW!

    Umm...100 games (95 of which are indies, 3 of which are remakes)


    The hilarious thing about the PS TV (besides the awful Vita compatibility list) is that they got it completely backwards. Japan is the country that likes the handheld vita, the west is the market with multiple extra tvs and tons and tons of streaming services. PS TV should have come HERE first. It's too little too late no matter what but the point still stands.

    Just grab the appropriate region PSN cards. Yeah, you'll have to fork out in the specific chunks, but it's your best best for getting around with the regional billing for PSN. Oddly enough, the Nintendo eShop, despite being for region locked consoles, don't give a damn if you're using an Aus credit card for an account that reports itself as being from Alabama >.>

    PSNOW support.

    C'mon, that has to be worth something. They weren't obligated to support Vita, and it's still great even though we already knew it would happen.

    They also namedropped a Vita Tales game. That was totally unexpected.

    but... we already knew it was happening (as in, sony said "yes we are doing this" not a "well they've gotta, right??")

    that's not an announcement

    Sony already said that the PS3, PS4 and Vita would support Now (as well as TV's themselves). So yeah, it really wasn't an announcement.

    Hey I just included it because that list also included things we already knew about.

    But honestly I'm surprised they said anything about Vita at all.

    We should be more excited about Vita TV. It could be another avenue for the Vita to see a resurgence. The barrier to entry for Persona 4 Golden is just $99 now!

  • Xenogears of BoreXenogears of Bore Registered User regular
    It's not Vita TV though which shows you just how much faith they have in the Vita brand...which is none.

    Or maybe they only branded it Vita TV in Japan because they figured namedropping the handheld name in Japan would make it sell well.

    Any weird stuttering when you try playing an actual game? Could be as simple as a stuck button.

    After some googling, it looks like it has some water damage. I splashed water on it last night (all the buttons worked and it seemed like it was good.) Apparently, there is a rice bag trick that supposedly works.

    Or, i'm just being trolled by the internet. This is incredibly frustrating, especially after buying a 64gb card, 50 dollars on PSN, and an annual membership.

    I've done the rice thing on a phone before, it works. It's legit.

    THE RICE TRICK WORKED!! I am so happy. Power and Home buttons are operational.

    Edit: man, I can't win for losing. Now my left analog stick is stuck. Could it be the rice, or the water?

    I never got Absence of Detention, and it would be a bit redundant at this point, so it's a shame it unlocks stuff in Promise Revisited.

    I personally would recommend not taking the bundle unless you really love the PS3 controller and want another. The JP model has DualShock 4 support and I doubt they wouldn't have it here. The DS4 can theoretically allow for better touch compat if they decide to patch that in, in addition to the DS4 just being a straight up better controller.

    What'd be really cool, though totally gratuitous, would be if you could use a Vita as a Vita TV controller.

    i think there is a grain of rice stuck under my left analog stick. now, instead of sprinting backwards, my guy tiptoes forward. sigh.

    There could also still be some water in there somewhere. I'd leave the vita in the rice a bit longer.

    Edit: Can you move the stick fully in all directions?

    Yes. Earlier, it was stuck all the way to the back. Now, I can move in each direction, but it seems slightly stuck forward.

    I saw in that list you posted in the E3 thread that there was some kind of Neptunia SRPG centered around Noire released in Japan. Any chance that sees a western release?

    Probably! There hasn't been a Neptunia game yet that hasn't made its way stateside eventually (i.e. none of them have been skipped).

    Still on the list:
    Re;Birth 2 (Re;Birth 1 hasn't come out in America yet. Purchase it to guarantee this one).
    Chō Megami Shinkō Noire: Gekishin Black Heart (Noire SRPG by STING!, just released in Japan a week and a half ago)
    Neptunia U (3D Action game by the Senran Kagura people; releases in Japan at the end of August)
    Victory II (no release date or platforms listed yet, next mainline game)

    JuJust think. You'll potentially have 4 Neptunia games on the Vita eventually, more if any get announced for it in the future! Saving Gamindustri and winning the Console War portably, whereever you go.

    I am hoping that Victory II is for either PS4 or PS3+Vita.

    Indeed, and just to add to the rumor mill, a couple days ago Erin Fitzgerald tweeted something suggesting she has been doing a lot of Noire voice work.

    You all probably know by now that I hate expecting anything until it's done and announced, but I feel pretty confident that we'll be getting all the HN games one way or another. In addition to the above, it has to be a huge part of why Idea Factory International even exists.
