I just bought Pinball Arcade as it was available on the EU PSN finally!
Not sure why, but I'm enjoying it more that the Zen pinball games.
It works really well on the Vita and looks amazing on the OLED screen, seems to have less polys and lower res textures compared to the PS3 version but the game still looks fantastic

If it's David Cage who said it, that's more worrisome than anything

I agree with this. That's one of my only complaints about the hardware design. They're already somewhat difficult to press, and when you're in a darkened environment they can become hard to locate as well.
I thought it was Andrew House?
Holy crap, Crystal White Vita's a mirror image of the black!
I like the design honestly. Raised buttons will make it feel like a cheap toy imo. Buttons never move so how are they hard to locate?

But the D-Pad and face buttons are raised. Flush buttons are a terrible idea on a controller, especially ones in the corner like Select/Start.
Exhibit A:
So, I've got an actual problem to solve. I originally got Gravity Rush through PS Store. Now I happened to snatch a physical review copy of it. Before this I thought I'd have to keep the digital copy on my memory card for as long as it takes me to buy & finish all the DLC packs, but now I could free up some space for other games. What happens to the save files of Gravity Rush if I delete the digital copy (with the physical copy inside Vita). Is it possible to keep the save files?

I hear ya... first thing I thought of when I saw that pic was knight rider for some reason lol.
Copy the existing game (bubble and save) to PC/PS3/Mac first.
Then insert the new GR card into your Vita. Vita will try to install it over your existing bubble, but it should not overwrite your existing save.
If something goes wrong, welp, you'll still have a copy of your old save, which you can copy back to your Vita.
EDIT: I tried installing DD over DD, and DD over card, they both work fine for me.

Er. um. Maybe if you save the Memory Card to a PS3/PC first so you have everything for sure and then test it out?
Honestly thats a tough question, I dont think anybody will know that one.
I think, like Kaz Hirai, Andrew House is into Playstation Network platform. Vita, PS3, and other PS Mobile devices are just client machines to Sony's library and services.

That is exactly why i think that information is faulty. First Pitchford was saying "let us know if you want Borderlands 2 on Vita". And now it is basically "we're doing everything we can to make it. We havnt started the develope at all, but Sony wont let us make the game". Really doubt that. Probably some misunderstanding somewhere in that conversation.
Hello Vita GAF
Long time lurker whose account finally got approved. I've had my Vita since day one and have loved every second of it! Picked up a few games based on all the love they get here, yes Mutant Blob is awesome
Just sent you a request.
The main character dude, the one that hangs out with Raiden the whole game, he looks like an old man when in-game. X)
PS. Sent you a request.
I thought it was Andrew House?
This shits funny LMAO, you're probably right.

That would make sense. They don't seem to be very worried about the respective platforms and are always pushing for digital related things.

Haha, don't give me the credit! I pulled it from another thread here.

I hope Call of Duty turns out to be this. Resistance was way too short.
Resistance multiplayer is a let down but, it works.
..kind of off topic, but I just spent way too long making this graph, so...
I see people talking about how Monster Hunter saved the PSP, but I don't think the numbers really support that. Don't get me wrong, MH was no doubt big and a contributing factor, but it's false to suggest that it was the only or even the biggest factor.
Looking at the weekly sales it seems pretty clear that beyond the (significant) bumps for each release, MH didn't have much sustained impact on sales. If you must pick out one thing that "saved" the PSP in Japan it's obviously the release of the PSP-2000 model.
...and so to kind of bring it back on topic: when people talk about what the Vita needs to survive and bring up that one killer app (be it monster hunter or COD), I think it's going to take more than just that. There needs to be broad library of games that appeals to many demographics, solid hardware (I think that is pretty much covered), and a main stream price point.

Depends on the situation. I would say Gravity Rush, but are you planning on buying lots of PSN games sometime?
just rent gravity rush if you ever want to play it.
or wait for it to drop in price a ton.
Gravity Rush since it's GOTY.
Well, I'm planning on picking up a lot of the Atlus PSP games on sale. And whenever PS1 support will drop, I will start buying the shit outta those.

I'd go for the memory card. you'll thank yourself later
yes, i've had it happen a few times in the same exact situation. had you put the game into sleep mode during the race or recently?
yuppp. i figured that was the issue but just thought it was a coincidence

This is weird. Did you get an estimated delivery date?
I swear when I checked how many were left there was only 1 and I ordered it...yet the listing is still up for it and you just placed an order? Huh. Maybe there were more than just the 1...
Check out this Japanese trailer for the PSone compat:

Also, best JSR video I've seen yet:

Sony needs to stop cockteasing us with PSOne support.

July 18th. It shows Not Yet Shipped, so technically they can cancel my order for whatever reason.
I'm glad I chose not to wait for the Crystal White version, black looks much better.

Same here. Lets hope both of ours are ship.
A price cut and good marketing during the holiday season would be great but it depends if Sony really want to do it. I mean I saw 2 commercials for the 3DS today and I haven't seen one for the Vita for ages...
