SHOW US GRAN TURISMO PORTABLE SCREENS PLEASE!


caps... and it's just the Psp game, not the Psone game from what I can see. It's a shell of a game compared to the rest of the GT family series of games in terms of car customization you know?

When you see this ton of games drop onto the PSN store on the Vita and you look to Nintendo refusing to even trickle 1 or 2 gba games onto the 3ds eshop and still be asking the same price as FF7/8/9 would cost you on the Vita for some NES games. Really makes me consider what people are thinking when buying those and claiming the Vita has no games.


In a way, I agree with you because Nintendo makes you pay full price repeatedly for the same stuff while the PSN lets you buy a game once and play it on several platforms....but really, all they did was enable digital backwards compatibility for the games we could already play on PSP.  It's pretty awesome (Finally put my PSP away since I have Crash, Spyro, and Syphon Filter games I couldn't get on Vita) but let's not go overboard here.

This and I can't understand people saying Vita is too expensive, when you get brand new games for $30, constant sales on PSN, etc. Vita is so much cheaper than 3DS and Vita's 2014 lineup destroys 3DS's even if you ignore this developing PSX/PSP library, which is absolutely awesome. The best thing is that Vita is better to play PSP games than the PSP! The loading is faster, screen is better nad bigger, so everything looks better. PSX games also look better on Vita than on a TV with PS3. These graphics benefit from a smaller screen ;)



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Do they have Assault Rigs in there? If they do I might consider buying.

Yeah even on new stuff like getting Limbo and Guacamelee for the PSVita for having the PS3 versions of the game is awesome. As for the simple "enable digital backwards compatibility" they did also reformat the games documents to be more in line with the Vitas way of handling things and each one comes with it's own little live arena area rather than simple psp bubble.

I dunno when I think back to when I used the 3ds 100% of the time and I heard an announcment that Sonic 1 from the Megadrive was coming to its store and I was excited for it... even tho it didn't come for maybe 4 months after that reveal I now just feel stupid for being wrapped up in that service when psn exists on the Vita. Heck one of the games on psn is the megadrive collection 28 megadrive games in one 7euro package.... now on the store without a wait of 4 months for 1/28th of it.

As for permanently shelving the psp I have a PSPgo set up with lovely mame and Capcom arcade system on it, have it tucked under my big ass tv and got a spare ps3 controller connected to it so that is something the Vita will never replace I think.

If it was a psp or a psone game I can't see it on the EU psn store right now, altho if you have it on your accounts download list from another system I think you can get that and just download it right to the vita from your download list.

Not just screen wise, but remember that for things like monster hunter unite from the store you can rebind the dpad to be over at the right analogue stick, makes the game a whole lot more playable without needing to break out the claw grasp :D

I think you are missing his point, the fact that NINTY doesnt do it, is the shocker and really shows how ass backwards they are sometimes. Hell this kind of distribution is standard across the board for not just games.
