Forums - Sony - Cave cancels 2 Vita titles, Cave COO resigns

Cave pledged its support for PlayStation Vita at Tokyo Game Show last year as it announced two games for the platform, a shooter and a social game. It looks like both titles won't be released, as Famitsu's release schedule lists them as canceled.

The announced social game was a version of the popular Sengoku-themed Shirotsuku. The Vita version was said to make use of positioning and Wi-Fi. See this story for details.

No details were shared for the shooting game, but Cave did promise to make use of the system's unique capabilities.

Famitsu's release schedule lists canceled games as just a footnote beneath the main release list, so for an explanation of why the games were canceled we'll presumably have to wait for an earnings report.

Cave announced today that Representative Director, Vice President, and Chief Operating Officer Miko Watanabe will resigning.

The resignation, said to be for personal reasons, will take effect on May 31. However, Watanabe will continue to serve his Representative Director role until the company's annual shareholder meeting in August.

In its notice announcing Watanabe's resignation, Cave noted that Ito Masahito, Representative Director, President and CEO, will become the company's sole Representative Director following the resignation.

They're closing their online shop at the end of the month and their stock is tanking hard. I think they're dying.

Well, I don't think this has anything to do with Vita... but it's bad for it anyway.
Those games could have been placeholders in some months... like this one, where Vita has ZERO games!

I think it does have something to do with the Vita.  If the company is in trouble, the first thing they're going to cut are the games they think will be least profitable.



Cave? who?
