How..........utterly...........disrespectful......or vendictive ......can you be to a fanbase?

Square Enix, against all reason, has omitted making FFType-0 for Vita, the one system it was MOST requested for and the BEST fit for it's play style.

 

Why Putting it on Vita should have been a No Brainer...

 

  • The game was originally made for PSP, a system whos graphical benchmark sat somewhere between PS1 and PS2 level. This may be an HD remake of said game but don't expect fully upgraded models like we saw in the last Tomb Raider. This is going to be a poor man's update just like FFX/X-2 HD was (loved the game none the less). Better shaders,textures, framerate, and screen ratio. Then they will call it a day. This could have been ported to Vita in a skilled developer's sleep.
  • Vita owners have been the vocal majority begging for this game's localization. Why? Because most vita owners are PS Fans....who are the blunt of FF fans..... who also owned PSP which the game was originally slated for.......but knew it wouldn't due to PSP dying in West..........so gleefully picked up the Vita!
  • Vita is a system that is basically "Porting for Dummies". From day one Sony showed how any PS3 level game could be ported to Vita in a matter of WEEKS.
  • Portables are far more popular in Japan. You can say "Oh, well FFT0 already came to japan, its the west that wants it" which is true....but this game will assuredly also be released in Japan as well.......which more of them own Vitas than PS4 atm. I'm not saying its not financially smart to put it on PS4 and XBO.........but to leave Vita out entirely?
  • The game was built around being played on a small screen, minimum control needed, and portable multiplayer mechanics.
  • SE's neglect of Vita from THE START seems completely unwarranted....as all of their PSP titles sold well for a supposed dying handheld, and in most cases out performed their 3DS counterparts. (KH:BBS sold 2mill, more than Days/3D/or even CoM. FFT:WoTL >= FFTA > FFTA2. FFVII:Crisis Core sold 3 MILLION)
  • If similar HD upgrades are to be regarded, FFX/X-2 HD had Vita do almost the same as PS3 version.
  • Vita handheld has been a wonderland for JRPGs of late, it would have been perfect.
  • How are they gonna sell this game exactly? Rule is you are not allowed to do an HD disc release with just one game. It has to be 2+ if it is going to be at Retail. And if not at Retail, what are the numbers they were expecting digitally?  Because Vita's bread and butter has been very high digital sales, especially against games it shares with PS3/4.
This news has me so livid to say the least. The only reason I can possibly think of is that they secretly want Vita to suffer for some reason. They have developed some pretty cool things for 3DS. Vita? We get Lords of Arcana(garbage) and that Death Metal Pikmim game. Seriously? These were your efforts to test Vita's waters?!!?!?! A company that is famous for JRPGs has yet to do ONE for a fanbase salivating at the mouth for one.
The only redemption for this is that they are do a Part 1 and 2 Announcement of this game just as they did FFX/X-2 HD. FFT0 at E32014, then TGS2014 anounce FFVII:Crisis Core HD as well to be bundled together for both PS4 and Vita.
Am I alone in my rage about this?
