That or since its on vita you just want to talk about that instead of the game. Okay.

Vita is doing better than the PS4 in Japan
and Vita TV is doing better than the Xbox One
As for Type-0, Square said multiple times that they want the FF fanbase on PS4/Xbox in preparation for FFXV.

That's a huge drop. Could be due to the change in art. The gameplay looked different as well.
Are you implying that somehow I hate that they announce games for Vita?

Nope. I'm wondering why you're in here about a game announcement thread talking about why sony/square chose an almost dead system for the new game. If you're really questioning the decision you should start a thread and talk about that.

Wait, SE is making something for the Vita? Holy crap... Now, about that Mana series SE?
I still hate you for that FFVIIR announcement SE, lol.

I didn't think that was necessary. This isn't the OT or anything. But I'll leave now if you're going to take it so personally.
Vita is already getting a Mana game.
Kawazu weirdly has enough clout at SE that he can do what he wants. Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to spit out as many FF Crystal Chronicles as he did, nor would he be able to concoct the weird and obtuse combat systems that he did. It wouldn't be too hard for him to secure a SaGa project given that he is a development division leader (Division 2 specifically). So he wouldn't need Sony's assistance to get what he wants.

S-E is finally doing something not ios/android/port, and they let kawazu out of the S-E dungeons. Well ill be damned.
Now i'm imagining how beautiful a 2D or 3D game with that awesome SaGa water color aesthetic will look on the Vita screen. Even if it just looks like a higher res, higher quality Romancing SaGa PS2, it'll still look good.
PS2 got pretty damn close to the original art style imo, except in SD form.
Also I gotta say its got one of the best / mysterious dungeon themes on the system.

Chrono is dead because there is a lack of creative input to continue the series.
SaGa ia a safer bet compared to most IPs you are thinking:

Popularity in the west is negligible for most of those IPs.
The last one was the remake of SaGa 3 which was released a couple of months before the 3DS launch, DS hardware and software sales were declining sharply.
SaGa 2 remake was released quite late in DS life (after the system was 5 years in the market).

Those two games ARE on JP PSN.
They already announced a SaGa Browser game before this particular game got announced.

Hrm. Little disappointed that it's on Vita, but any SaGa is better than no SaGa.
I hope it's as deep as Unlimited Saga. The monster ecosystem was absolutely brilliant.
... Mergh, not too optimistic about playing it in English though. Gotta hope, right?

If they do take things from Unlimited Saga, the game definitely needs to look like this (quality is kinda bad).
Also nothing wrong with the blacksmithing or spell synthesis either, they kept that stuff in Minstrel Song, so I hope they bring it here as well.
I wonder if he considered 3DS at all.

Interesting. Been meaning to get a VITA TV, unless this won't be compatible with that. Kinda want to play Tales of Heart, even without a English dub.

Vita? An odd choice.

It's incredibly sad that after seeing a teaser trailer, we have to hope Sony does something to make sure this game comes here. The SaGa DS remakes were totally skipped on, so unless someone is feeling sincere pity for international users, I see no way this game is going to be localized in English. And considering how the hacking scene doesn't seem heavily interested in Vita, I doubt this game is in the pipeline for a fan translation if that door even opens. Hell, Romancing SaGa 2 is still not finished as far as fan translations go, and that's a SNES game...

Urge to buy Vita...rising.
Yeah, Rise of Mana is being released on Vita. It's a F2P phone port, but I think the game actually looks nice
unlike Agito

nothing would make me happier than for this new SaGa to take the Guilty Gear Xrd technology and apply it with the watercolor art of SaGa Frontier 2
This is not the end.
nope. out of all the games released in japan, we probably get 1/4 of them localized at best.
Of Square Enix's Vita games or actions that will make people mad?
