   Regarding a VITA VERSION: We just met with the engine team to check our facts. It is possible to port the engine to Vita, though this was not initially part of our plan. That conversation will continue (we'd love to see the game on VITA too), so we'll post info as it rolls in.

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is the first HD entry in the Shantae series, and it's already confirmed for PS4, PS3, Wii U, 360, Xbox One and Steam. But, a Vita version is still a possibility! Perhaps as a stretch goal? We'll see how it goes. So far, the Kickstarter is off to a good start, at over 10% of its goal within the first few hours of its creation.

So, Sony fans, I hope you'll enjoy the first Shantae game to not be Nintendo-exclusive (late iOS port of Risky's Revenge notwithstanding).

Holy shit! Vita stealing 3DS games!

Next up: Monster Hahaha, I can't type that with a straight face.

Actually, 3DS is still getting an exclusive Shantae game, so 'tis fair trade.

She's leavin' you, mang. This is one last handjob out of pity. Then it's Vita (/PS3/PS4/Wii U/360/Xbone) exclusivity from here on out.

There's always Steam.

When did she turn white? , I only played the first one so is this the same girl?

   Hi friends! Since there were a lot of comments regarding skin tone, we lined up all the Shantae artwork from past games, and the skin tones are all over the board. We've always left this to artist discretion in the past. However, this new artwork does stand out as the lightest she's been since back in the GBC days, so I'm sure we'll adjust it once we have our character lineup established. This is a great example of Kickstarter comments shaping the eventual product, so please make your opinions heard!

Same girl. Don't worry about it.

What's wrong with pity handjobs? I see no issue with this...

Nothing. The ensuing sense of shame and self-loathing makes it that much hotter.

Im just glad the series is being reborn! No matter the console because the GBC version was such a great game, it was a shame it died off
