Forums - Sony - psvita support for the ps4 changed it seems.

Not sure if anyone else noticed this in the emails being sent out by Sony but it does seem as tho they're now far less commited to the psvita with remote play from the ps4.

but yeah the part that I'm a bit worried about is when it comes to the remote play section of there specifically the point

"gamers will be able to seamlessly play a range of PS4 titles on the beautiful 5-inch display"

A range of ps4 titles... this isn't what was said before where every ps4 title would feature remote play, technically you can say that you can play a range of ps3 titles on the vita too... that range being pixel  junk games and Lair.

But yeah sorry if anyone else had already posted this and I just missed it in the flurry of 1080p news but I'm pretty damn annoyed if Sony have taken another step away from fully supporting the Vita in every way they said they would, was going to be a real selling point for me to get a ps4 but now I'm gonna be in the "wait and see how it works" group of people who are gonna sit out the launch day models of the next gen systems and see which is the first to show it's weakness's.

They've already confirmed 99% of all PS4 titles will be playable on the Vita. They don't say all titles because it's not all titles. The titles that won't work are those that require Playstation Eye.



I'm sure it will support most so no biggie.

what i find funny in the whole comment is "beautiful". It is like they think people will go oooh its beautiful i must buy lol.



 

 

It will be interesting to see what happens when it launches, thats for sure... They can claim stuff all they want and tbh, I don't see why 90%+ games won't work via remote play on the vita but if they do end up it being like the ps3 where only a few games really support it... Then its time to let the dying handheld die

They have to say "range" because those games that require PS Eye (or any other special peripheral, eg. a future Rock Band game's instruments) won't be compatible.

Oh yeah I do remember reading that games which would be basically unplayable from the ps4 wont be available to play on the vita but I just think the words "a range of ps4 games" suggests a minority rather than the majority. For example if they were to say a range of games supported the playstation eye my understanding of this was that certain games would have it marked on the box "playstation eye support/required game" and I just hope to god that it doesn't become an exception to support it rather than to not support it.

you forgot there will be PS4 games using PScamera and those will not be compatible with remote-play



It's kinda cool how Sony does this type of thing. I'll search google to see if some one spilled the beans on it.

Short story shorter, nothing has changed.

 

Edit: nope, seems like this is one of those things nobody has talked about before. Guess I can't talk about it either.

They kinda have to word it that way, you know, since games for ps move / camera wont be playable.
