Llamasoft does TxK for Sony Vita

[PVB]

Agree with skip on all counts.

i have a Nexus 4 on the way right now too.

If publicity for this doesn't have the tag line "Be not afeared, for the web is full of pulsars" then I'll.... well, I don't know what I'll do but it shan't be pleasant.

I'm amazed that I can pick up second hand Vitas for $150 on the second hand market here. Sorted.

Jeebus. I just had a bit of a look around and its true... In fact, less than that...

I was girding the ol' loins for not getting too excited about all this, as the Vita has done absolutely nothing for me to date, with nothing even remotely like a system-seller game on it, but given the low hardware entry price if you're not fussed about a second hand unit, count me in for some LS goodness.

If you haven't got a PSP there's a handful of PSP must-haves that are worth picking up on the Vita too.

This is the thing, I'm still waiting for something I want to come out on PSP!

I'm playing Disgaea 2 on my PSP again at the moment and still loving it. Probably the only two system sellers for it to me tho, this and Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness.

I love the Vita, been playing it heaps ^_^

(I really like the 3DS too, which I recently got.. but the games are few and far between, and waaay more expensive.. and the battery life is miniscule.. shame. I only need charge the Vita maybe once a week or so..)

Though yeah I'm very into JRPGs, especially PS1 ones, many of which I never played in the olden days.. so my Vita's mostly full of those.

SUPER STOKED about Llamasoft on Vita Totally unexpected and cool news.
I'm another who bought a Gamecube for Unity (never got a 360 though)... No regrets.

Caffeine Kid: Disgaea 3 is on Vita too, native! It's pretty shiny.

another company told me they were doing a psp game years ago and i had a silent snide giggle to myself - i think they ended up making it for the ps3, not sure they did a psp version at all, but lucasfilm saw it and commissioned a star wars themed version, i'm presuming for a tasty amount of cash upfront.

So as someone who has just read this - Is it a definite Vita game and not on iOS / Android as I might have to track a Sony down.....

... stay tuned ... stay tuned for the news ..

Sadist... :-)

That could actually sweeten the deal for me. A couple of times in the past I've gone to get a PSP, then just borrowed one instead to play a couple of things as and when, cos the whole UMD thing just seemed so loud and slow and clunky, compared to a cart.

And to bring it right back to the main gist of the thread now - huzzah for dev kits!

Cant you just run the UMD's from Ram ? Sure I read that was possible somewhere ?
