persona team did catherine, right? I haven't played that yet and wouldn't mind a Vita port.

falcom could announce other easier titles, I guess. Ys Origins, Xanadu, a proper Ys 6. Those would just be ports of its PC games.

Reality:

I'm excited for the announcements, but man we've come a long way if these would be considered the major announcements that will single handedly "SAVE THE VITA FROM EMINENT DOOM."

They've historically sold from really well to decently on an already popular platform. But they don't strike me as IPs that would PULL a sinking ship into popularity

Sales talk and numbers aside, fuck yeah I wannum.

Frankly I'm more excited about improved PSP compatibility, PSX support, and any hints of future OS updates. I hope the promised "new services" include some of those.

So I bought the Vita Trigger Grips yesterday, even though I figured they'd probably be some cheap plastic garbage that I'd immediately regret buying, and.....they're surprisingly good. They don't add much weight or size to the system, but they feel pretty good, it makes the whole system fit better in my hand. The L and R triggers are really stiff, but they're still better than having them directly on top of the system. Also, it does make the system wider so you have to stretch a little bit farther to reach the touchscreen, but it hasn't been a major problem.

Giving Vita the utmost benefit of the doubt (aka, this will not happen). If it got new mainline entries in those franchises (Phantasy Star Portable 3, Persona 5/SMT4, new SRW, new Zero no Kiseki), that pretty much would save the system in Japan for at least 2012-2013. Besides Final Fantasy/Dragon Quest/Monster Hunter, those are pretty much the next "biggest 3rd party game franchises" in Japan with 200-500k sellers each. Throw in a new musou game and Yakuza 5 and you have everything 3rd party that matters outside the above 3 series.

But considering how PSP was port/remake/spinoff city for years until the DS/X360/Wii had died and it became the main viable system other than the PS3 and started getting mainline entries....Vita will not be getting anything mainline from the major devs for a few years, and definitely not right now with a userbase of 500k.

I was interested in that before the vita came out. I use the hori wheel grip for the 3DS because it's a bit uncomfortable on its own. Usually comfort is sacrificed for portability. But the vita is comfortable to use, probably because it has rounded edges and is already quite large.

Motorstorm RC is gonna be free on the Vita.

Unit 13 looks like a classic early release on a new platform.

From a GAFfer on Unit 13:

The cartridge I reviewed from locked up my Vita several times, and deleted Virtua Tennis 4 and my save. I had to boot the Vita in the service mode and rebuild the database.

not really diggin MLB teh show, atleast from the veyr little i played. barely any cutscenes which is why i loved the game, and the analog sticks make lining up pitching almost impossible on meter mode. makes me miss the nub. graphics dissapointment

oh and there sproblems with the online code activation

pilonv1 · « **Reply #1404 on:** March 06, 2012, 07:26:52 PM »

Both MLB games are getting poor reviews this year. Bloom is off the rose with The Show it seems.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #1405 on:** March 06, 2012, 07:49:30 PM »

ive come around on it. graphics and presentation still horrendous but game is still god tier

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #1406 on:** March 06, 2012, 08:16:33 PM »

The show has always looked less awesome than competing series, cept lighting has always been tops- as a game though it kinda destroys all others

cool breeze · « **Reply #1407 on:** March 06, 2012, 09:07:45 PM »

Wut, Show has always been known as the best looking MLB game. Did some other series leapfrog it in the last two years?

Lol it took forever to download. I just received a challenge to beat your score, Methodis. Was that automated or did you ask the game to send it?

It should have...I have left it on downloading stuff and it was all done when I came back to it several hours later.

i think it throttles Downloading when u let it sleep

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #1430 on:** March 06, 2012, 11:24:31 PM »

if its not plugged in i think

cool breeze · « **Reply #1431 on:** March 06, 2012, 11:28:06 PM »

it was plugged in when I left it, had the orange charging light on and all. when I went back there was no light, but it was plugged in. I didn't hit the sleep button either.

I usually download games on my PS3, but I didn't want to stop the infamous fob download.

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #1432 on:** March 06, 2012, 11:55:45 PM »

Strangely enough, it doesn't download when put into hard sleep mode (pressing the sleep button) but does when it goes into soft sleep mode (idle for x minutes). It's weird, stupid and should be fixed. But for now, I've set auto-sleep to 1 minute.

I've no idea if it's the same when it's being charged. Ugh, they really need to update their power saving options and give more control and explanations.

I downloaded ME3 stuff at like 2+ megs a second. PSN was saying ONE THOUSAND HOURS for 650 megs.

Infamous 2 FOB was saying a week, but pausing and resuming made it go faster.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #1438 on:** March 07, 2012, 01:01:45 AM »

I still remember when it took 3 hrs to update PS3 firmware.

Eric P · « **Reply #1439 on:** March 07, 2012, 06:10:44 AM »

unit 13 is a lot of fun. i wish that there were some more bulletstorm like combos that you could try to chain across the entire levels.
