Support NeoGAF

[MagicWithEarvin]

SOMEONE ANSWER ME THIS. WILL GRAND KNIGHTS HISTORY BE ON THE PSN STORE THE DAY IT HITS RETAIL?

Is there even a release date for that? I thought they delayed it.

 

[Respawn]

That or the day before retail. What you REALLY want to know (or so I'd assume given where this is asked) is if it'll be Vita supported at the same time or not, and no one knows.

Thx and it better be supported or Yoshida will have to block me on twitter lol

Is there even a release date for that? I thought they delayed it.

February 24th my good man. [Well my Amazon preorder states this. Just want to be sure before I cancel.]

 

[FairXchange]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but were those free AR games supposed to be available via the store? I have the AR cards, but there's no indication of where these supposed games are on PSN.

 

[Eusis]

Are we talking 4G garbo again? Enjoy the extra price for the 4G model (above and beyond the ridiculous 3G mark up price more than likely) and limited service area. 4G service coverage is spotty nation wide.

If it allows synchronous multiplayer then it'd be worth it. Well, not for me, but if there's a genuine benefit for gaming then it's more worthwhile than in other devices I'd think. If NOT then no, it doesn't really matter to wait I'd think.

So how do I know when this thing is fully charged? When there's no orange light?

 

[Kung Fu Jedi]

I was out running errands and stopped in. They had all the launch games out on a rack. Full MSRP on everything, though.

Was Ninja Gaiden amongst them by any chance?

 

[Lighthouse]

It basically goes like this

You go to the sign up on Vita and get the 2 ID's you get when you are trying to register there. Like a SIM or CDIID or something stupid like that. I left that open and opened the browser on PC. I signed up and entered my info and bought a 15 dollar plan and when you're done, there should be an option in your account settings or plan settings to check on promotions. It will say that you have a promotion to redeem or something like that. You then check that and it applies it. What it means is that it's not active until you use the first 250mb of data and then it kicks in just incase you go too far. The SSD code will be in my email within the month

Sounds good, thanks!

I bet the mobile app looks awesome on that OLED.

It looks clean as hell even on regular gaf. The browser is responsive for my needs as well. Pinch works well and things load fast. I know it's not the best out there but I really only need it for GAF.

The 3g works amazingly well. I don't know why some complained unless it's this whole 4g master race thing. It was as fast on 3 bars or more as my home network. I can't ask for more than that wile browsing.

Light turns off or turns blue, depending if it is on.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Does anyone know if you can set up an account without a memory card?

 

[Diseased Yak]

Ok, this sucks: When in sleep mode, the Vita doesn't continue downloading your queued-up downloads.

 

[Lighthouse]

Orange = Charging in sleep mode.

No Light = fully charged.

damnit!

 

[LiquidMetal14]

I would let it go into basically stand by. So just set it to 3 minutes like I did and just set it down.

 

[goodfella]

Anyone know if Rayman and/or Ninja Gaiden run at 60fps?

And fifa?

 

[anddo0]

Ok, this sucks: When in sleep mode, the Vita doesn't continue downloading your queued-up downloads.

This comes as a surprise to you?

What? That can't be right.

 

[Respawn]

Hmm might be a power save feature you can change in settings.

What? That can't be right.

Well true or not that's what Amazon said on my preorder.

Oh crap, really? SWEET!!!

Who needs Vita games with Grand Knight!

 

[Djin1979]

The UPS guy finally showed up with my FEB ! xD

 

[B.O.O.M]

Hot Shots Golf and Rayman are the best launch games. Soooo addictive.

I'm not a big fan of 2-D platformers in general but the demo for Rayman was a lot of fun. Is the difficulty level adjustable?

 

[Wario64]

This comes as a surprise to you?

It is to me. That sucks.

 

[patsu]

I'm sorry, what now? I follow Apple news pretty closely and as far as I can tell Apple haven't even formally announced the iPad 3 let alone commented on the screen or data network. As for why you wouldn't support 4G yet... maybe because large parts of Europe won't even start to roll it out until next year?

Probably, and Vita can easily support 4G/5G/6G/... via an adaptor anyway. There is no need to rush into it, 'specially when battery life is still a concern. The bottleneck for *G adoption is the data plan and battery life, not whether the hardware is built-in or not.

 

[bunbun777]

Can you back up your vita game saves to the cloud if you are a plus member?

 

[Diseased Yak]

Disregard my post about downloads in sleep mode, here's the thing:

Letting it go to sleep itself, i.e. PS light stays blue, downloads continue.

Putting it into standby yourself, i.e. hitting the power button and button is off (or orange if charging), then downloads stop.

 

[Respawn]

I'm just stating the date Amazon stated. So just be weary of any changes that may come up.

Oh you Diseased Yak you

 

[chickdigger802]

Something I really need to know.

How does Tactics Ogre look on this?

It was a pretty blurry game on psp (upscaling snes sprites to psp res does that), so I am pretty curious

good news, thanks for the info.

I will likely get Plus now because of the Vita

an adapter? i really doubt sony is going to release a 4g dongle for the vita

 

[Tobor]

Was Ninja Gaiden amongst them by any chance?

I don't think so, but I went looking that carefully. I grabbed Uncharted, saw Little Deviants and had another laugh at the price, and left.

 

[Sporran]

Man next wednesday cant come quicker. Am stoked

Btw is there a qriocity/music unlimited vita client?

Oh thank god. Yeah, that makes sense. I thought you were referring to the power button. My fault.

My Near list just exploded. Have 14 people playing Vita within a 5km radius.

i hated how it was zoomed in by default. if you zoom out so the sprites are native res everything looks so sharp

 

[Dog Problems]

These flaps are a pain in the ass to open for a nail biter like myself.

 

[Plinko]

I'd wait until they announce some sort of Plus discounts/benefits for the Vita first, unless they already did and I missed it.

 

[patsu]

Sony doesn't have to. It is technically possible. In fact, a third party can do it too. Gamers will just think they are on an "anywhere" WiFi network. You don't need a special 4G Vita to enjoy 4G networks.

 

[Darklor01]

What?

What does it smell like?

I have to agree, the FEB case does smell pretty bad. I probably wouldn't have sniffed it if not for the note here. I think it smells a bit like it has picked up the scent of a million cigarettes smoked while packing it.

Anyone agree?

I also would love to see this-- Tactics Ogre will be one of the first games I load unto the vita.

Also interested in seeing Trails in the Sky pics please-

 

[tribal24]

i have 17 people in my 5km radius and it seems like wipeout is the game everyone is playing 3 are playing marvel

 

[JetBlackPanda]

this thread is really lacking pictures.

 

[AwRy108]

So, just got my Best Buy Reward Zone coupons for becoming a new member and get this: one of them is Buy Two, Get One Free on New Games Up To $39.99!

Lumines+UMvC 3+Hot Shots = $84 = $26 per game! On my way to the store ASAP. LOL.

Yeah, it's a bit rancid but it's not strong or anything. I have to put my nose right up to it.

 

[RoylAsult]

ok so my thoughts so far is that this thing is amazing. Lumines looks so good, its a must have for anyone honestly. Hot shots is my dream come true for the franchise, Uncharted like i said before plays well but controls are going to take some getting use to. Escape plan so far is fun

It does. Just don't manually put it into sleep mode.

Bah... may be I'm doing it wrong. I'm the only one here, which can't be right. Will try again later.

Came back to my office after lunch. Good thing my FEB case doesn't smell. ^_^

I'm specifically sending friend requests out to local folks playing Uncharted to make grinding for bounties less of a chore.

 

[MikeE21286]

Ok, so I'm not sure how "sleep mode" is actviated...but say if I were to put my vita on the charge cradle overnight, would it continue my download?

 

[Kung Fu Jedi]

I don't think so, but I went looking that carefully. I grabbed Uncharted, saw Little Deviants and had another laugh at the price, and left.

Thanks. I'm going to try to get Uncharted, Hot Shots, and Ninja Gaiden at Target this weekend, but could easily go with something else in the B2G1 deal.
