I like to own retail copies, and most of games get only digital release in EU. But I don't mind, videogamesplus seem to have pretty fair prices. And I almost forgot that from 1st of July I don't need to pay attention to value of my EU bought games since there won't be anymore customs or additional VAT fees :)

You haven't seen or heard of Infinite Stratos, Higuarashi. or Zero no Tsukaima? Those three are all incredible popular.

Not to mention it has some old stuff too (Di Gi Charat).

I know :(

lol so a MS exec said that they are going to 'kill' sony at E3 :P

Lol yeah, i saw that. At first I thought it might be a mistranslation but it turned out to be true. Maybe he means it literally like attempting a hit on Kaz.

I really hate the shift that took the vita in japan, hosting all kind of perverted games and therfore being limited for "Otakus".

Which games exactly? The visual novels that were on PSP, PS3, and 360? Or was it Senran Kagura which had 2 3DS entries?

I don't think the problem is that the Vita has those games, but that it has no other games (slight exaggeration, maybe!).

I guess. Those games get on there because they're inexpensive to develop and already have a pretty reliable fanbase to sell to.

And actually is a good thing for the Vita to have it's own audience until it can compete with 3DS on the more broad and general audience... NINTENDO is until now unbeatable on the Family-casual-child-oriented market, specially on the Portables... And these little and small games can make a difference.. like the hunting games thing.. SONY is trying to get back a part of the market with a overwhelming quantity of good hunting games (PSO2, ROAce, Freedom wars, Soul Sacrifice, God Eater2, Toukiden, etc...).

With time the user base will grow andhave more different games... and based on the good sells of little developers I think Vita is doing good bit at bit on japanese market...
