Ha, didn't realise that. Kinda bittersweet.
Also Gunhouse started as a PSM game, I still have both that release and the ill-fated alpha of Oh Deer! on my Vita.
Brandon Sheffield (the owner of Necrosoft) has been a big fan of the Vita and wanted to support it as much as possible, but Sony screwed him pretty bad with the whole PSM mess.
Hi folks. Just picked up a psvita oled for cheap and wondering what games to get. I fancy a few new experiences and can see there is a ton of JRPG's I have never heard of but don't know where to start.
Im into all genres and have already bought
Everybody's Golf
Lumines
Virtua Tennis
Virtues Last Reward
Tearaway
Are there any good shmups because I would like to get a couple. Also, I bought a Sony vita memory card but its only 8gb. Can you use normal memory cards some way?
And wheres the best place to buy games in the UK? Store wise my local Cex is limited and a few online stores the games seemed expensive as Im wanting a few bargains. (I picked up all the games above for £25)
I really wish the PSP game selection on the PSN was better.
There are so many great PSP games I'd love to play on my vita but I just am not allowed to :(
Prices have gone up on memory cards for all sizes due to limited availability now haven't they?

Oh my god this is the worst. If the Vita didn't require you having to back up and reformat to switch profiles and instead worked like the PS3 it would at least be slightly tolerable but even then the selection isn't much better lol.It doesn't help that selections vary from region to region. I feel your pain.
PS1 selection isn't tooooo awful it just has some really weird omissions. Like why is there no Ace Combat 2 or 3? Or why only armored core 1 and not master of arena? And why no Gran Turismo 2???

Ah for Japan that makes sense.Couple of reviews up on my site - Exist Archive (fund, but repetitive after a while):

Ecolibrium (a terrible example of F2P):

Couple of hundred yen up on Amazon? Otherwise mostly the same.
A friend got me a copy of Death Mark for Christmas. Should I start and complete that game before heading back into Chaos;Child. Howlongtobeat only suggests it's a quick ride.
Ugh got to level 98(/100) of pure mode TxK before game over, what a kick in the balls, some of the later levels are stupidly hard. Guess I better get practising them.
My latest article is about 10 (more) cancelled Vita games that should have happened. Always a depressing one to write but researching it helped me dig up some interesting stuff!

Ouch! I'm sure you'll get it next time.
Cool list. I wasn't even aware MOH was ever stated to get a Vita release (another couple of FPS' would have been nice for sure, at least Konami could have given me the Coded Arms games via PSP :( )
City Shrouded in Shadow though... that game would have been rough on Vita, and I say that as someone who enjoyed it very much! It runs bad o the PS4 in places due to lack of optimisation so I can't imagine how bad it'd run/look on Vita.
After reading this, all I could think was "I pray Romancing Saga 3 localization still makes it over".
Yeah, I'd heard tales about how bad City Shrouded in Shadow was - I'd still love to have seen it on Vita though. The producer even said it wasn't a decision for technical reasons which seems bizarre!
I'm quite pleased with the selection of PSP FPS games - we only got the first Coded Arms though didn't we? Would've loved Contagion too.
I dont remember the first Coded Arms (well, either of them) being playable on the Vita. They were ripe for Vita just for the control mapping options. Pity, guess I'll boot up my PSP version one day again!
Meanwhile, did anything come of those VVVVVV and 1001 Spikes physical releases? I remember them being teased recently with in box copies shown but I never saw if they'd be released or not.
Promo copies of 1001 and VVVVVV were recently sold on eBay. They should be coming out soon.I dont remember the first Coded Arms (well, either of them) being playable on the Vita. They were ripe for Vita just for the control mapping options. Pity, guess I'll boot up my PSP version one day again!

Ah ok, good to know. Fingers crossed we get proper release dates soon as both would make great additions to my collection.Promo copies of 1001 and VVVVVV were recently sold on eBay. They should be coming out soon.
If not, then whoever bought those got the rarest Vita games in existence.
Ok, that's fantastic news. Time for me to get my USA account active on a Vita and do a playthrough, thanks :)Oh buddy, I've got news for you! Coded Arms is on the US store and it's Vita-compatible (might only be through PS3-transfer, but it's definitely doable - I have it on my Vita!).
Must've mis-read your first message sorry, I thought you were saying they were playable on Vita :P
I looked for the exact same thing a couple of days ago and found this https://github.com/devnoname120/vitabright. Truth to be told, I'm not totally sure it worked, but moving the slider to the absolute minimum seems to lower the brightness a bit more than usual.Question for anyone with a CFW Vita.
Is there anything out there that can lower the screen brightness by more than the system menu? When playing my OLED model laying in bed the lowest brightness available in the system menu is still uncomfortably bright to me.
Cheap case with a padded front is better than a screen protector if you ask me. Only way to keep the console in the best condition is to use a case.I'm back on my Vita playing some old RE titles and always have it in my backpack. Got a screen protector but its still getting kinda roughed up, any cases or protective stuff you guys would recommend?
Yeah, I ordered one recently but might just use both. I have a grip case on it so ill have to take that off to fit it but maybe for the best.Cheap case with a padded front is better than a screen protector if you ask me. Only way to keep the console in the best condition is to use a case.

Are there any vita games with pretty active online communities still? I have mostly played rpgs on mine.
Killzone does, although oddly Call of Duty has an even bigger community still.
Killzone still does? I might have to re-download and boot it back up
I'm not sure it's 100% of the time, but there were definitely still people playing when I last logged on.
I've been a fan of your Vita website for quite some time. I just want to say thank you for highlight some games no one else has or giving some games a chance. While I don't have the same taste in games as you, I found some great games among your recommendations.
I wonder what's the final Aksys title he mentions. I have a pretty good guess, but it'd be another otome.
He mentions further down that he was talking about Code;Realize.
Oh, I see. I still have a guess that Aksys might've released another physical Vita title, or might still release it DD-only in the future.
