Flag a price cut, just bring out monster hunter portable 3rd (or a more complete version of 4 than on any other system at the time) and port FF type 0 to it with slightly upgraded graphics & they are sorted for sales, I'd totally cry again seeing the type 0 ending in (more) high quality (than on psp) & it'd totally appease the fans of the more emo FF's.

& both those games are very wotrh buying a vita for, and should be easy/fast to port

I think the best thing SE can do at this point due to their laziness is to release a PSN only version of FFType-0 exclusive for the Western Vita, of course this means its gonna be exactly like the PSP version unfortunately :/

They've been lazy lately especially with the rumor/announcement of Final Fantasy III (iOS and NDS version) being released for the PSP.

Even that would be fine, just getting type 0 on the vita would be a game changer, It is an amazing final fantasy, sooo tragic & bleak

Yeah who knows who makes their porting decisions recently huh, they are getting so bad with porting calls lately I'm wondering if they have outsourced to the guys from NIS

All I can say is thank god I can (mostly) understand Japanese

Sony unfortunately isnt devoting enough of their PS3 resources towards the Vita.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

In my opinion, the system itself doesnt need a price cut, its perfectly priced the way it is, the PSP was released on 249.99 back in 2005, 7 years have passed and the price of the Vita is 249.99 for the wifi bundle while the 3G is 299.99 unless you go for the multigame bundles.

So imo, the system is priced fair....however the memory cards should absolutely get a price cut, 100 dollars for a 32 gig memory card that cant be used by any other device other than the Vita? Absolute garbage decision made by Sony on that, its as bad as their decision to not showcase the PSVita game montage.

I think one would have to say that the price of the system is actually 270.

When you bought a PSP in 2005 you were able to play any game on the system and save it because it came with a 32MB card. You coud also update the firmware. For the Vita, you need to get a memory card to play all of the games, save them, and update. The cheapest starts at 4GB for 20.

if this forum is to be believed, PSPGo didn't survive

Also, does the Vita have 10games to give away? >>TrollFace<<

Why wasn't psv included in the psn plus deal?
There really should have been free games for vita, like ps1 classics or psp games at least.

C'mon Sony, there are psp games that psvita owners want to play. Let us play them!
Hell half of us have a large catalogue of psp games that we can't play either.

I'm guessing they are waiting for the Vita to mature a bit before adding it...then again they never added psp games so...

Wait..... I missed the Sony conference. They have heard two billion complaints about games over the past 7 months and they didn't talk about vita games at E3?

They did, but it was very fleeting.
