Whatever they announce, it needs to be amazing, because that other machine is disappearing into the distance, and WTF have SCEJ been doing for the past 6 years?

that doesnt bode well, to think you have a entire studio dedicated to japanese games and tastes and not be releasing anything on time, TLG, anf GT are perfect examples of over indulging with time management

The Japanese studio has been horribly mismanaged. Yoshida recently committed himself to bringing it up to scratch with the western SCEI studios, so it might get better soon. I think a Sony Santa Monica guy now heads SCEJ.

If I was Nintendo, I would be flattered. babycakin
Sony answering Ninty's attempt to upstage them on the very day of Vita's launch isn't exactly flattery. It's more like an "Oh no you di-int!" reply. :P

They made Siren Blood Curse and Gravity Rush, Japan devs usually take more time making games its just the way they are. Remember Kojima ? only had Peace Walker and MGS 4 for this gen, they move slowly well most of them.

They should be developing thier own monster hunters, dont they hold the rights to FF7 and 10? take a leaf from nintendo's book and milk them to the enth degree

Went back and found the list of Japanese developers that Sony said were working on software for Vita last June. Not sure if anything really shouts "system seller" though, since some of the biggest (S-E, Capcom) have their franchises on 3DS.

Pretty sure Square owns the rights to FF7 and FF10. What i don't understand is why Sony never invested in a Pokemon clone for themselves. I mean, the franchise is a gold mine, and having something that would shift even half the software and hardware units that it does would be a veritable treasure. I mean, was their planning that woefully short sighted?

Didn't they say they have more than 70 games in development for Vita ? there has to be a japan studio making like 20 of those so maybe they were busy with the Vita.

I actually want more games next gen from Sony's japan on PS4.

No, I mean a new Demons Souls game for the Vita. Remember, Sony owns the Demons Souls IP. I imagine they want to expand it into a full blown franchise, particularly after how successful the first game and Dark Souls were.

Ripping off yet another thing from Nintendo

SRTtoZ

I know. Nintendo may not have invented conferences, but they made them popular. Sony just biting off Nintendo again.

Yep, lets remember that Nintendo invented conferences like they invented motion controls and white bread.

Exactly, why does everyone think web conferences are something new. We have them at my company all the time and have had them for years.

None of Sony's attempts at capitalizing on popular IPs from other companies have ever proved to be more than 10% as successful as the leaders in the that genre.

Probably not for a year or so, 3ds had to do so cause they priced it wrong to begin with, their market used to 180 range. I thought it would launch at 200.

Panic Mode engaged.

Curious as to what they'll show, though, game-wise of course.

Don't get nor care for the love the Souls series gets.

Not like there is no overlap between audiances, PSP got a lot of niche titles localized for North America anyways. Publishers like XSEED and NIS seem pretty happy with not super high sales.

Backwards compatibility certainly matters in this case, because the Vita is not just competing with the 3DS, it is also competing with the PSP. If it were fully backwards compatible with the PSP, this would not be the case. It is somewhat similar to the situation with PS2 and PS3 back in 2007.charizard1605

You can buy almost every important PSP game and play it on the PSVita though.

I am considering buying a Vita, I played it at Best Buy and it was awesome! It's a really nice handeld system and it feels great. And Uncharted Golden Abyss was fun, I also like how your PSN account is linked so you can still get trophies and talk to friends.

BUT, why are the memory cards SO expensive? Seriously Sony, wtf!?

Demon's Souls went greatest hits, which means 500k sold.

As for getting L2/R2 to work, could make it a strip along the sides of the back touchscreen.

Let's be honest, a lot of PSP's best games were not exactly system sellers anyways.

And what if you have a library of 50 UMD games? More importantly, games like Peace Walker, Birth By Sleep and Crisis Core are all NOT on the PSN. In other words, no, the most important PSP games can't be be purchased on the Vita.

And what if you have a library of 50 UMD games? More importantly, games like Peace Walker, Birth By Sleep and Crisis Core are all NOT on the PSN. In other words, no, the most important PSP games can't be be purchased on the Vita.

Play them on your old psp?

Birth by sleep you can blame Disney for not allowing SE to put it on PSN, sony and SE has nothing to do with it

They need not only Japan centered games but MP games as well. If their isn't some form of MP game...mainly a shooter. Then it's all over in USA

[QUOTE="110million"]New Vita demon's souls would be amazing. Include some of the stuff they added to Dark Souls, and it's golden.110million

errrr they will/should be aiming to system sellers the

Souls games aren´t big at all

Demon's Souls went greatest hits, which means 500k sold.

As for getting L2/R2 to work, could make it a strip along the sides of the back touchscreen.

Let's be honest, a lot of PSP's best games were not exactly system sellers anyways.

that would be horribly finiky, especially if it doesn't register while you're fighting mobs of enemies. If anything they could do it so holding the trigger activates heavy attacks.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"]Backwards compatibility certainly matters in this case, because the Vita is not just competing with the 3DS, it is also competing with the PSP. If it were fully backwards compatible with the PSP, this would not be the case. It is somewhat similar to the situation with PS2 and PS3 back in 2007.charizard1605

You can buy almost every important PSP game and play it on the PSVita though.

And what if you have a library of 50 UMD games? More importantly, games like Peace Walker, Birth By Sleep and Crisis Core are all NOT on the PSN. In other words, no, the most important PSP games can't be be purchased on the Vita.



Then you keep your PSP, It's not that hard to figure out.

Dear God! three games not available on PSN, this mean the Vita is doomed. The majority of the important PSP games are there for you to play.

Hope they update the Vita PSN so it plays all PSP games and PS1 games.

Also put flash/HTML 5 in the web browser.

Why should he have to?

Imagine if Windows 7 wasn't backwards compatible with software designed for older versions of Windows, or imagine if modern day CPUs and GPUs weren't BC with older software, it would be an outrage...

It's amazing how some people try to undermine the importance of backwards compatbility... sad.

And Vita is doomed for bigger reasons outside of the lack of UMD BC, though it is still a reason. PSP is outselling the Vita badly in Japan right now.
