Don't be sad, as a fighting game player myself, I can ensure you Blazblue is one hell of a shitty one. The more iteration keep coming, the more the core mechanics are screwed. Guilty gear XRD is the one to ask for on vita, even if the downgrade will hit a little, it would be neat. 

Plus, they're almost no Blazblue players in the world. It would be hard to matchmaking online mode. 

First. You Are WRONG... Just like that... And You talk about GGXrd, a game with a LOT of missing core mehanichs for EVERY Fighting game (even later versions of GGXX had them) like a proper Ukemi system on the ground, Trow tech, the lost EX moves, and lots of missing key characters for the series... some of these are being fixed for the Revelator revision on arcades, included the Random and Annoying death time when clashing hits...

Second. You can put a disc of Calamity Trigger or Continum Shift (I played this online recently, not the extend) on PS3 and I'm sure You'll find a Matchmaking easily.. BB players are few, but loyal... and that's because the NetCode of the game is THE BEST of ALL FIGHTING GAMES EVER... I even dare you to try it on Vita's Continum Shift Extend ;D

@SnakeDrake: This game probably will release on Arcades for end of the year or little later... Consoles and Vita's version wouldn't release before Summer next year, and that probably in Japan, leaving Western markets for Nov-Dec maybe... more than enough time to enjoy CPEx and Xblaze games...

If this were the case, why does BlazBlue do better than GG nowadays?

Yoru no Nai Kuni details game flow, Phantom transformation, more

A good amount of info, that Promi looks super cute !!

To put it simply : The simplier fighting games core mechanics are, the better the game appeal to most of the players. That is why games like SF2X and Third strike are considered the best and SFA3 are hated among fan as far as mecanics only are concerned. 

Blazblue is a fast game, with a lot of graphical effects with a lot of stuff to learn, too much stuff actually. Hence why it is so hard for most of the players to learn and play the game. I have no problem with it personally since I play fighting game for a long time now, but for new comers, I can understand that Blazblue is a no-no. There is absolutely no way to understand the mechanics instinctively like Street Fighter or King of fighter by just watching a game. 

Guilty gear XRD have done a lot of work to remove the most tedious mechanics and simplify the game. Some may consider it a bad thing, but it is the best Guilty gear so far, only the hardcore players of it are not happy since they can't abuse the system anymore like before and roll on newcomers without being touched.

Sounds like we're getting Eitr on Vita.

Yes!!! This game lookes really interesting like a 2d version of the souls games. Its just too bad it was revealed at e3 just after ffvII remake got announced it has no chance. 

Sorry to go off topic on this, since I've been on an Alpha 3 binge lately, but why does every rag on Alpha 3?  Third Strike is far more complex (Not saying it's not a better game).  I also really also wanna know why people keep saying Alpha 2 is a better game.  I keep hearing that with no justification (Seriously see people on forums get called on it and see no good response).  Every Alpha 2 match I've seen is filled with turtling and overall slow pace.  While Alpha 3, not even with the broken v-ism combos, is at a much faster pace and offers overall more variety.  

I wonder if we'll really get XCOM; Civilization; Assassin's Creed & Resident Evil all in one year this year on Vita. I know 3 of them are rumors and all of them are ports, but still.

It's pretty much more third party support than Vita got all of last year outside of LEGO games (which we're still getting) and Milestone games (I'm still sad they've left Vita :( )

There was a rumor about CoD Zombies coming too. That one seemed made up, though.
