Yeah, I'll always have some glimmer of hope, like with aksys taking the vita version of tokyo xanadu.

On a related matter, I have a feeling that Vannileware might cancel the vita version of their new game whose name I keep forgetting and have to google every time I remember it (13 Sentinels ageis rim ). we barely saw anything from it in 2016, so I assume it's in early development. I need it on my vita.

Just hope to play it on my Vita before end of next year.

There will be info about the PS Vita version of Akiba's Beat during a live stream today at 21:00 JST https://t.co/a9kRkkGrUR

Also, the online Kiseki game is out December 26th in Japan:

Clearly to soften the blow from the Sen III PS4 news lol

I'm translating the question and answer session now, but Kondo basically dropped that Ys VIII will see an English release in 2017.

Ys VIII skipping Vita would be a huge disappointment for me. The game looks incredible on Vita.

It'll probably go out of service before US release is considered.

Demon Gaze II in English listed on Play-Asia:

Also, Toukiden 2 rated for Vita in Germany.  Maybe not surprising, but normally Vita versions of games don't get rated in Germany unless they're getting a physical release?

Mercenary Kings is still coming.

Would have thought for sure that this would have been quietly cancelled.
