Its pretty bad , but i was always able to discern what the characters meant to say. To be honest the most negative thing is how it affects Skill names/explanations and system mechanics explanations, since it makes it hard to understand what exactly some skills do. Though i was able to find some good guides on the internet and help from the people from the OT.

I think you're onto something here
Considering that was the first picture i found i'm sure it gets worse but i'll keep this in mind though.
Probably will end up buying this eventually as the gameplay looks interesting enough
No fun allowed in the inferior western version.
that is from the asian english version, the western version is a bit more cleaned up (no penetration). Should definately wait for a sale since it has already been several times, i think $16 last time? that was a pretty grest price for the game. And considering its a bamco title we will definately see it on sale sooner or later lol

Thing is though apparently its only early on things were "cleaned up" as folks still said a lot of the other stuff was left halfassed or just not translated at all lol. I remember people in the OT talking about that.
Sounds like with Hollow Fragment I could have some dumb fun with a custom character (thank the maker I don't technically have to play as Kirito) and a nice battle system. I'll consider it.
So, Unlimited World Red is a pretty fun game so far, and looks absolutely lovely on my OLED Vita. It's definitely one of the better OP games I've played. Touch My Katamari seems like more of the same, which is perfectly fine by me. Speaking as someone who just got into the series thanks to getting the original in the last flash sale, it's pretty nice.

It's not like they don't know what they were doing was wrong. They even admit that it won't happen this time, so why should we hold it back anyway.
Ended up putting another 10 bucks into PSN to get One Piece World Red for Vita; considering it is normally 30 bucks, why not get it for a steal price 
? Still have a lot left over for Shovel Knight and whatever goes on sale on Tuseday (got everything that interested me in the sale already).
Always found One Piece interesting but never got to the anime or manga; this should be a nice introduction I think.

That is one horrible translation job.

What is this game? Looks interesting
Omega Quintet, aka true JRPG.

IIRC someone on r/vita managed to actually get a refund through relentless complaints to the customer service due to the shoddy translation.
But it's reddit so season it with a gallon of salt.

Looks like I'll be buying:
Shovel Knight

Too bad I don't have a PS4. Looks good and seems to be a traditional JRPG based on the CTB-like display in the right.
I'm planning to get the Neptunia games sometime later this year. Will I be missing a lot of things if I start with 2 or 3? That aside, we do have a lot of good games coming out this year and we're not even halfway there. <3 ur list but I'm hoping for the eventual localization of GE2:RB or Digimon games too. Also, still undecided if that Lost Dimension game should be picked up.

if you're talking SAO, I assume it's actually a pretty accurate translation, but it just isn't used in that way. Translation is probably "breaking through" or something like that, given SAO's story.

Ah OK that makes some sense heh.
penetrating through the layers(floors) of aincrad
Eep that Shovel Knight list looks borderline impossible... Not that I've played the game yet, but some of those just seem super tough.
Oh well, guess I'm just playing for fun!
nope, Neptunia is very self contained so you can start anywhere, though all of the vita games are great so i'd suggest playing them all

No thats not correct. Its what happens when you have someone that not only does not know English but Japanese as well do translations. The word that they were "attempting" to translate was 攻略 (n,vs) (1) capture; (2) (abbr) {comp} strategy guide; playing guide (e.g. for game); book of hints; (P) which has nothing to do with penetration. Its basically floor clearing. Not penetration.
Some of the text in the game made it look like they ran it through google translate and from there tried to piece it together. Also that they did not receive any sort of resources from Bandai Namco in regards to proper terminology and such. Let alone looked up information on their own for general terminology which does exist from fan pages based off of information from the localized series.
One thing for sure is considering the fuckup that happened is Bandai Namco will never use said group again that was responsible for the shit translations that went into Hollow Fragment.
Wonder how doable the Moe Chronicle platinum is, kinda hard to tell and there's no trophy guide on the PS Trophies forum.
Makai Shin Trillion delayed to July in Japan. In return, we get the collab between this one and Neptunia VII.

No big deal about the delay as its just 2 months. They must have ran into performance issues and wanted to get those out of the way ahead of time instead of releasing early and trying to work on a patch at the same time to fix existing issues damaging the new IP. The colab stuff will help.
Much prefer shit getting delayed rather than having a version out with issues. Even more so considering more than enough currently will be out from this week and next to keep people busy in the mean time anyways. Thankfully for them this buys them time to fix whatever the issue actually is till July.

I'm not sure if they were aiming for that, but the A.I in the game is so bad that it's actually funny.

Vita 3K trademarked in japan apparently.
It seems to come with a HDMI port.

It should've had it from the start, but better late than never.
Disappointed that it doesn't have an OLED screen.
Thanks for the news!

ofc it comes with a HDD, it's actually Vita TV, not PS Vita
Next you'll tell me it comes with built in 512 GB HDD memory.
Is it legit? It's dated april first...
If true... Unlike most people i said that Sony would have made Vita 3k for sure
Were is written that it has hdmi?
Nope, picture is definitely a Vita 1000. That port is the proprietary USB connector.
it's called 3k because that's how much the memory cards will cost
Could be the revival of the OLED's mistery port too!
lol no
Front is totally a 2000 though.
3k JPY is not bad actually.
Vylash pls

I am not seeing the HDMI.
The section part says it's a "Portable Controller (LCD Screen) for Game Unit".
I know jackshit about patents, but is that how you'll describe a game console?
Edit/Correction: I guess it could read "Portable LCD Screen'd Game Unit's Controller", which would somewhat-kinda translate into a Vita-3000. The controller part is really throwing me off, lol.
The back is also peculiar, it's all the same, has not place for fingers and doesn't seem to be a touch pad or it's as big as the entire back
Sony's dekavita?

Where's the slot to put in the VitaTV? I like the concept of dekaVita, though it honestly has no use for me.
Seriously, it's like Vita-1000 and Vita-2000 had a child.
Well you said portable controller lcd for game unit, dekavita(controller) for pstv(game unit) immediately came in mind, also there seem to be nothing on the back, maybe you can open it.

What came to my mind was the Wii U gamepad thing. LOL.

It's a weird picture, because on the side there is also the port for 3G (Vita 1000) and on top there are two slots (Vita 1000: PS Vita Card + Useless Port).
It looks like a hyrbid between the 1000 and the 2000.
Is it a day ending in Y? Then SEN is having an issue.
I feel that the game treats me like a 5 year old sometimes. the dialogue is just the worst.
