FFS
>_>

Oh well, at least its physical on PS4.

/inb4 4th release that changes that too.

 

[Sabas]

They need to get their act together.

 

[Pellegri Testament]

love this wild ride.

 

[Soulflarz]

tbf it ran on unity and we all know how that is on the vita ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[BY2K]

Namco fucked up badly on this one.

 

[DeathSparks]

 

[Nipo]

This is ff type 0 all over again.

 

[Leona Lewis]

I thought it couldn't get worse than Type-0's messy rollout.

I was very wrong.

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

So when is their Next Order?

 

[kuroneko0509]

[RockmanBN]

Sucks for those who only use Vita. Still glad that it's getting a physical release on PS4 with English Dub included.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

What a mess.

 

[Claude Augario]

What is going on over there?

 

[Nachtfalke]

My feelings are seriously hurt. Bamco, what the hell are you doing?

tbf it ran on unity and we all know how that is on the vita ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Really? That explains a lot. Unity is bad on consoles, but utterly terrible on the vita.

 

[BigEmil]

Are their PR team trolling

 

[Yasumi]

The initial announcement ensured I'd be passing on Next 0rder. This fuckup ensures I won't be buying any more Bamco games for a good long while.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

lol

Liam from Two Best Friends Play posted the perfect reaction to this, removed the pic since it's slightly offensive so I will leave the link instead

Well it wouldn't be the first time.

This ride never ends

 

[DR2K]

So can we bury the Vita in its resting place or not?

 

[teflontactics]

This is some epic failsauce they're swimming in, check out Bamco's website;

Says PS4 and Vita right there on their site. Unless this is ALL a mess up and the site's right, that's some dumb shit on their part.


Edit: Beaten.

What the hell is even happening anymore.

 

[Shizuka]

Maybe it's time for a 4th PR.

 

[DeathSparks]

 

[Mass_Pincup]

This level all fuckup only happens with the Vita or Europe.

I think I'm curse lol.

 

[Menitta]

I feel so bad for Digimon fans on Vita. How does that happen!?

 

[Producer]

All according to henkaku

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

"we listened! we're localizing the vita version too!"

 

[Takao]

The website is clearly wrong, but it's just another example of this company's complete failure in communications.

 

[Shizuka]

I guess they jumped the gun before waiting for another 100.000 signatures petition asking for more Digimon games.

 

[BigEmil]

Well it wouldn't be the first time.

Wow LOL. Do you know what video was that from hopefully they didn't delete it haha

All according to henkaku

Also maybe the many major threats and anger sent towards Bamco today from Vita fans now they pissed lol

 

[Zonic]

Wow LOL. Do you know what video was that from hopefully they didn't delete it haha

"Adventure Time Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!"

 

[Isotope]

Wow LOL. Do you know what video was that from hopefully they didn't delete it haha

It was for an Adventure Time game I think? Specifically for "Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I Don't Know!". The "I DON'T KNOW!" was a play on words for the game's title.

 

[RK128]

Ugh....I am thinking back to very bitter memories of Typo 0's announcement. I reported on this story on 3wirel four times today and I wouldn't be surprised to see ANOTHER correction pop up.

Just...if you aren't making the thing on Vita, simple. DON'T. MAKE. IT.

Come on Bamco, you are supporting the Vita with games this fall & next year. Why be strange with Next Order? If its engine issues okay then but at least be up-front about it rather than making the press go through this PR hole of misinformation.

I wasn't upset at all about the game not coming to Vita this morning but now I'm just sick of hearing about Next Order. Hope people are looking forward to it and stuff but Bamco should clear this information up soon.

I have never seen a PR situation as bad as this in quite a long time.

Bandai Namco PR:

 

[mrjohill]

I guess they jumped the gun before waiting for another 100.000 signatures petition asking for more Digimon games.

It's like we go through all this madness for cyber sleuth, we buy the game, but naw vita owners ain't worth it this time. Straight trash

 

[Ramune]

This has seen more ups and downs than a seesaw! How is it difficult to get something like this right??!

I guess with the different Bamcoteams working on other projects, porting the extras to the PSV is just not in the cards...despite owning a PS4, its still disappointing though

 

[Opa-Pa]

Oh of course their site says Vita now. God dammit.

Will we ever be able to safely assume an ORIGINALLY VITA EXCLUSIVE Digimon game is coming to the west in its Vita version? This is starting to sour me on the game lol.

 

[Maxinas]

Well it wouldn't be the first time.

Wew lad.This is one of the reasons i hope TOCSIII doesn't end up PS4 exclusive, the niche game fanbase just isn't there atm and who knows if it ever will be.

 

[sensui-tomo]

Bandai Namco PR:

I think they use this excuse whenever they leave to get a new PR statement.

 

[ATXAlchemy]

Bandai Namco PR:

Next message would be that the PS4 version would have no digital version.

 

[sensui-tomo]

Next message would be that the PS4 version would have no digital version.

And no sub/japanese dub, gotta add a second condition in it. Hell they'll rename Bakemon into monstermon too

 

[Wereroku]

Good lord how did a company manage to beat square and type o for a release announcement cluster fuck. Sorry vita peeps maybe they will change their minds again.

 

[TropicalFish]

A mess. A trainwreck. A PR wack job.

I can't.

Still buying the game though lol.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

A mess. A trainwreck. A PR wack job.

I can't.

Still buying the game though lol.

Yup

 

[Kresnik258]

I want off this rollercoaster.

 

[DangerMouse]

A mess. A trainwreck. A PR wack job.

I can't.

Still buying the game though lol.

So true, this is madness. Like RockmanBN said though, I'm still glad it's getting a physical PS4 release with a dub.
