Thanks for all the info, one last question is there somewhere I could see what's in the vita store?I don't think so because you cannot download games to your computer. And I don't think they let you transfer a game to a usb stick and then to your computer.
Best place is the psn webstore.Originally Posted by Therealbeatris

Click on PSP games and select vita as the device filter. Same thing for PS1 games. I'm off to bed so good luck looking for games.
Hey perorist, where did you import from?Well the primary reason I ask is because clearly some of these websites are charging significantly more. Play-Asia has the Vita for $300 vs NCSX's for $230. I'm assuming most people who bought one probably shopped around for the least expensive available option and would be able to relay that information to make the search a little easier.
Thanks for input regarding the upgrade though, OLED screen is nice and all but I tend to prefer the slimmer models so this may just be up my alley.
I'd recommend NipponYasan personally, but my order from there was only for a 64gb card, so customs and stuff was no sweat. Go check out the VitaTV import thread -- you could probably find some good info there about which sites were the most reasonable for that and then logically assume ordering a Vita 2000 would be about the same.
Check the CAG thread. It's mostly up to date.Hey, does anyone know where I can find a list of all the North American PS1 games that are not on Vita in any capacity, download transfer or otherwise? I know the Crash and Spyro games are examples of this (and it really sucks) but what else?
Other titles I know don't work in any capacity, for NA:
R-Types
R-Type Delta
Final Fantasy V
Final Fantasy 7, 8, and 9 are all on the Vita store in NA and are all playable.Originally Posted by Therealbeatris
Thanks, just hoping I can revisit FF7 and 9 hopefully can get them on the vita.
Momohime's seems like it would be the worst of the two. :\Holy ballsack, I just got Kisuke's Fury Mode trophy. Just need to beat it with Momohime, and it's platinum'd. Holy crap. What a relief. Now, I just need to grind like 38 levels so I can equip the last sword.... Who thought this was a good idea?

Also, fuuuuuuuu at FFV not being playable. I was planning on playing the entire main FF series for the first time up to X on a Vita, having one of the titles not being there is a major letdown. :(

For newly released items they often have the cheapest prices. Only thing to note is they ship significantly slower than other companies though, taking up to 1 week to process your order even if the item is in stock. Another thing is they mark all packages as gifts and at generally around 1/5th the value or less of what it's actually worth. While this is potentially big savings depending on if you get hit with customs in your country, if the package somehow gets lost or damaged during transit you're out of luck as far as compensation goes.
Alright, I give up. I'm stuck on Chapter 5 of Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus on what's apparently a "fiend challenge" at the monastary annex. There are 4 of them that keep respawning after they die and there doesn't seem like any way to kill them for good. Anybody who beat this part able to give me the apparent secret I'm overlooking?
edit: wrong post
The fiend challenges are generally pretty long. You probably have to kill around 30 or 40 of them before you get them all, just keep at it.Alright, I give up.

They'll spawn for a good while.
You don't have to do the fiend challenges. At all. They're all optional.
Try a walkthrough like this one, I'm not sure if they cover that part though.

Ya I just finished it finally. Seems like incredibly bad game design though.The fiend challenges are generally pretty long. You probably have to kill around 30 or 40 of them before you get them all, just keep at it.
Didn't even know it was optional until now. Just seemed like it was the next thing in the story from finding a key that unlocked the door leading there.Originally Posted by corrosivefrost

Any time you run into a challenge area like that, it's an optional test of skill which will reward you with a prize -- something like a lives of the thousands gods or spirit of the devils to extend your life bar or magic uses.Ya I just finished it finally.

Neither of the R-Type games are in that list, anywhere.

I created a pretty comprehensive thread last year here. It's updated every time someone posts a game they've tested.Hey, does anyone know where I can find a list of all the North American PS1 games that are not on Vita in any capacity, download transfer or otherwise?

I went through the first like 3 hours about 6 months apart trying to give the game a chance. I'm glad others like them, I just wish I did as well.No use. That dude has made up his mind awhile ago, and no amount of explaining will sway him. It is fine, opinions and all.
WUTTactics Ogre can be because it is in the vita store. I am not sure how you can get a game like Valkyria Chronicles 2(or at least the DLC) that needs to be transferred from a PS3.
Thank you for telling me this, I seriously thought the game had been taken down. The original Valkyria is my favourite JRPG of the PS3 era, but the sequel hit when I didn't have a PSP and had no interest in getting another (those load times...*shudder*). I'll give it a shot even though I've heard it's not the game the first one was. My Vita needs this on it.

Ugh, Ys Celceta Silver Annivarsary costs $80 here. No thanks.
No it's the one with all the free goodies.
Also, newbie to Ninja Gaiden but not to action games. I'm playing NGSP1 right now. Is there a point to those rooms that seemingly have infinite respawning enemies aside from farming them? There's one in Chapter 1. I just found another one in Chapter 3 (airship) though there's a Golden Scarab on top of the crates.

My debit card is all topped up and ready for some disappointing Vita sales.

lol, what are the odds of someone asking the exact same thing just a few posts above me. Does the room "reset" if I exit?
Not sure if I should go for them right now. I can deal with them fine, but gun damage eventually chip me to death, though I try to avoid it by throwing shuriken on someone as distraction while killing another with melee. I went through four potions before calling it quits.

If you like Adventure games, there's Stick it to the man and Broken Sword 5.
Just an FYI that some PSP games ARE Vita compatible but require transferring from a PS3.Originally Posted by Therealbeatris

If you're US PSN, wait til Spring if you can, this past Spring, the FF games were 50% off.
Gonna visit my local shop to ask about Ys, if they aren't getting it by the 5th I'll just get it from the US Store and get the VR Missions game for dat top head Stealth.
I guess KZ:M is $20 physical again.

I almost imported from Nippon Yasan, but I noticed that they do not have SSL enabled on their shopping cart. That's a deal breaker, so I ordered through NCSX.com. They shipped quickly and will assist with any warranty issues, so I'm OK with paying a bit extra.Also Nippon Yasan
Quick question -- My 32GB card is filled to the brim. I would gladly delete some of my bigger games (Uncharted, Gravity Rush, etc), but doing so deletes my save game. Is there a way to keep my save data on the memory card and still delete the game data? Or do I just have to copy/paste my saves to my PC?
Upload it onto the cloud?Originally Posted by Gigglepoo

Is it just me or this seems like a particularly dry month =/
Your only option is to back them up to your PC first, which I find to be some pretty weak sauce.Originally Posted by Gigglepoo

My only issue with saving "to the cloud" is that you don't have control over it so it can't really be trusted as being perpetual. Eventually, inevitably, you're going to lose those saves if you haven't backed them up to PC.
Is SSL some security thing?

So when upgrading memory cards will physical game saves be affected, or can I upload those to the cloud too?
Both are good, though Legends is a little easier.which rayman do i want? origins or legends?

Playing Origins first will let you see how Legends has improved over some stuff from it as well as the graphics.
iF YOU can only get one, get Legends, I think it's on sale for $18 on US PSN atm, but that's a flash sale of sorts so grab it asap!
interesting. thanks a lot, appreciate it :)Both are good, though Legends is a little easier.

I don't know if you played the PS3 version(s) of the game, but would you care to give some general impressions?

Don't wanna be left sour, though... is it worth it?
