I would honestly rather have it on vita for portability but I really think ps3 and vita is a likely scenario.

So, the big game was a mode from a Football Manager? Not even the full FM game?
Huh? If someone is on stage at a big conference, announcing games for the platform they represent, what facial expression and posture do you think is appropriate for them to adopt? Should he be frowning, shrugging and maybe let out a little sigh as he announces each game?
To comfort you, here's a pic of Reggie announcing Super Mario Galaxy 3 for the Wii U:

Because according to people who played it it was shit. This is will not dumbed down pc classic mode with ability to transfer saves.
But classic mode is already dumbed down.

That almost sound like a damage control to be honest.He is teasing us again
A new JRPG huh? Not going to get hyped... not going to get hypedHYPEHYPEHYPE

Not going to believe this **** again. If a new Barbie Adventure comes exclusively on the Vita he will make it sounds like Dragon Quest XI. He still has a lot to learn from Yoshida.

Because he's proud to show off the fruits of his labour by continually getting great games to Vita.
That's my crazy guess anyways.
...the fuck?
You're in front of hundreds of press and thousands of people on the livestream, the least you can do is smile for them.

It's not a late port, and it is console exclusive. And with cross saving with the PC version, I can see it being quite popular.

There seem to be two camps of thought in the Vita camp.
1. Those who recognize that the Vita needs high profile, exclusive games that are system sellers-that are vital and necessary for NEW USERS to BUY the system-and raise the install base and give the system a more visible profile to ensure the systems longevity
2. The "Fuck You, Got Mine" crowd who already own a Vita and insist on only being happy for intermittent Indie game announcements, and couldn't care less if the existing user base grows.
Indie games are not going to move units in a drastic number. Fact of life. I loved Journey too-for the 2 days I played it. It's great that vita is getting a good amount of Indie titles, but they should supplement the main titles that sell the system.

If marketed correctly, I can see Football Manager Classic falling in category 1 quite easily. And if all else fails, handheld Minecraft will shift units.
No, there's a third camp.
3. Those who recognize that the Vita needs high profile, exclusive games that are system sellers-that are vital and necessary for NEW USERS to BUY the system-and raise the install base and give the system a more visible profile to ensure the systems longevity but also realise that ain't going to happen so there's no point in constantly banging on about it.
This camp get a bit fed up of every single game announcement being clouded with 'well that's not a system seller!'.

So essentially the second camp, just worded differently.
No, because apparently the second camp don't care if the userbase grows. They also don't seem to care about the intermittent retail releases on the platform. The third camp differs in these areas.
I was only humouring your pointlessly reductive theory anyway so don't worry about it too much.

I'm just bummed out over the complete waste of potential the system has had. If that lineup is what Shahid was getting so worked up and excited about-to me it's a sign it's pretty much over. To me it's comporable to if Tim Cook can't out in stage smirking and acting arrogant and then unveils a rotary phone.

You're totally short sighted.
ANY game can cause buzz regardless of it's creator's pedigree or financial investment.
And buzz sells systems. Nothing else.
Oh, just read that it's not the handheld version and it will share saves with the desktop version.
Hmm, yeah, I think this could be fairly big.
Been a while since I last played the desktop version of FM (mostly focusing on handheld versions). What's the difference of Classic Mode to the standard?

Believe me I'm with you on the wasted potential. The whole thing has generally been a huge kick in the bollocks.
It's more streamlined. Not a bad thing in this case though. You can autoresolve the games without spectating them, "program" your team with tactics/strategies for predetermined scenarios (ex:"if we're losing by one score at the 75 minutes mark change the tactic to 3-4-3").

Yup.
sigh. I really hope Shahid could come on GAF and be part of this community but sometimes, the negativity here is just too much :/
(I liked his presentation and his voice, almost as dreamy as Cerny's)
Wasn't it Minecraft ? Anyway, he did a great job, negativity is in fact overwhelming here sometimes for people who work on those projects. Most big Sony studios are busy on supporting the PS4. The Vita has better chance of selling as a companion to the PS4 and as an indie-on-the-go platform than as a straight up competitor to Nintendo who actually put time and money into creating big original titles for the 3DS.
I'd buy one myself, if it wasn't for 32GB cards that cost 80$. And I'll need to see how well Gaikai works on it.

At one point the PSP was gonna get an Elder Scroll spin off game; that was eventually cancelled. An "Elder Scroll Travelers: Skyrim" would be beyond amazing on PSV.

Football Manager lol. That was embarassing. People at Sony should learn from Yoshida on how to manage their community.

It fits most of the clues (though not all - "more than one game"; "a publisher, not a title"), but I don't think Shahid has said anything to confirm it outright.

Personally, if that "amazing big title" is Football Manager then, I am sorry if I sound terribly harsh here, I wouldn't put any stock into anything Mr. Shahid says ever again :\
lemme introduce you Inazuma 11!
everything is possible!
I don't thing it's Football Manager though!
Fixed.
God damn you're dramatic.
TGS will bring a bunch of cool Japanese games. Hopefully a few 1st party Japanese games as well. I liked the vita games that were shown & the PS4 to Vita remote play way flawless which I doubted it would be so they made a skeptic into a believer. I didn't like Borderlands 1 much but a game like that would be perfect for sleep mode of and on sessions Killzone Mercs beta is great Vita has great games coming and the indy games look superb.
The guy loves his job give him a break. I will say though what disappointed me was certain members here hedging bets on Demon's Souls or Dark Soul's Vita luckily I didn't buy into that.

I think Shahid and co. have done an absolutely fantastic job. We mentioned this in the Vita thread, but for people who don't distinguish fun received from an indie as different to a triple A - mad bastards, I know - then it's only going to get more amazing.
I'm happy to have indie titles I've played before now with me on a portable, and I'm making a concerted effort to purchase present and future indie titles on the Vita because of convenience AND performance. Couldn't be happier.
