Hey VitaGAF! Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but has anyone heard anything about a UK pre-order for the Undertale collectors edition yet? My google-fu is coming up empty.

Unfortunately, physical PS4/Vita copies are exclusive to Fangamer. They have a preorder page up, and they do ship to UK, but it's not live yet. We're supposed to get more news this month on it.
So I just got my european copy of Tokyo Xanadu.
There's this weird site called bazaar-bazaar.com that still has stock of them that a kind user on reddit shared.
They are uk based and they seem to ship internationally because mine arrived to Germany.
So if anyone wanted it physically and didn't get it because Aksys, get on it they still had about 20 copies left last time I saw.
Can't link right now.

How much do they charge for shipping to the US?

It's free over a certain amount and the CE exceeds it. Without that it'd be like $10.

so $35 total...... hmm, PSN sale it is then...

Where are you seeing the numbers? Is that the LE or the SE? I want to wait until payday but if there are only 2000 copies of the SE...

It's $4 shipping for just the game. $10 if you throw in the artbook too, though.

Got it from the LRG thread, but seems like only this first run is limited to 2000 pieces. But there will be more if the demand is strong:

Best Buy just set the release date of Mary Skelter to September 19th. Because we need more Vita games in September, apparently.

Thanks. Got an order for the Vita SE in, can't really afford it but I don't want to miss it if they're all gone by the 20th.

Look at those shipping rates!!!
Eh, I'd rather wait a couple of weeks than spending $20 more dollars on the LRG release.

My shipping was $6 to UK, alternative option was $30. Glad they had the cheap one :|
By the way, my monthly pestering 10tons about their upcoming games got this:

Boo, that's one down. I'd still be very happy if we got Time Recoil & JYDGE though.

Not limited from what I know but if it's like Shovel Knight it'll sell out eventually.

Was pretty clear it wasn't going to be August at this point, considering IFI likes opening up LE preorders about a month in advance and we haven't heard anything on it just yet.
Oh gawd, September and October are going to be very expensive months indeed.
Shocking.

Surprise of the century.
Great, September will be even more expensive now.
I'm bummed out, but that's pretty understandable.
God Eater isn't a jrpg, so 0%?
. The mystery game is also Vita only.It's most likely Stranger of Sword City Revisited.
Ray Gigant was more of a deal with Acttil (which resulted in Deemo) than a deal with Bandai Namco. If anything, that opened a line of communication with Experience and we're getting Stranger of Sword City Revisited.
They did mention that their games would be sold in North America, they just never got retailers to list the games up until now.

Welp, never mind then.
This series of events just makes me laugh.
1) Announce Vita port of game in 2014.
2) Cancel Vita port of game in late 2015 because publisher/root developer lost a lot of cash on now shuttered porting studio.
3) Vita port is reannounced a few weeks later after publicly receiving funding from Sony Third Party Productions.
4) Cancel Vita port of game in mid-2017 because porting studio can't get it to run well.
You'd figure the "can this run on Vita" question would've been heavily looked into between stages 2 and 3. Honestly, I would've preferred that to happen before step 1.
To add insult to injury, this appears to have been Third Party Productions' final Vita-specific port project. Now all they seem to do are PS4/Vita ports of ancient games. Blunder Saga Vita's money could've gone towards Stardew Valley, or really anything, that would've actually come out. Even if it did come out, by now BS2 is a year old and BS3 is waiting in the wings. How many would've cared about a years late port of an indie game they could already play on iOS/Android?
Not sure if it is okay to ask a general question here, but is there any consensus on whether the 1000 is the superior build quality for thumbsticks? The OLED doesn't make a big difference to me and the shorter battery life isn't fantastic but durability of the controls would make choosing between the two versions dead simple.

This makes me really sad, both because I really wanted to play the game on my Vita and the fact that Sony didn't manage to keep their "promise" to the Vita audience. To me, this is the final symbol that Sony have stopped caring about the V side of their customers.
It may sound stupid but this might change how I see Sony in the future :|
Expect to hear a lot more western indie vita cancellations as we approach 2018 and beyond.
That sucks. Was looking forward to playing that.

Yes I know. However, I don't think any of them will have quite the same emotional impact on me as this one.
I wish that we had a Vita successor to look forward to because (this far) the Switch isn't doing much for me (yes I own Zelda and no I don't like it very much).

Review codes are going out, good sign!
The best thing that could happen would be they see the success of the Switch, and start making something in time for an announcement at TGS 2018. I would be shocked if we got something this year.
But I think a lot of mainstream gamers probably feel burned by their Vita, so it's going to be difficult for Sony to gain the trust back.
I refuse to believe the following will suffer the same fate as The Banner Saga, Poncho, or the like:
2064: Read Only Memories
Pixel Noir
Regalia: Of Men & Monarchs
VA-11 HALL-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action
Collectems
Drift Stage
Zodiac: Orcanon Odyssey
Aztez
Or I could be wrong and more than half these games get cancelled for Vita within the next two years. Atleast Undertale is coming soon and 99Vidas just released.
I was looking at the OP and noticed we got a lot of the Japanese games localized, but many of the western indie games we've had no news about for ages. So yeah I'm guessing they're going to go quietly into the night.
This thread is for anything Vita-related, so of course! I can't say I've done extensive testing, but they're both pretty close to the same to me in terms of analog sticks and buttons. I also don't believe I've seen much in the way of comments about stick build quality, as in that one model is noticeably better than another.
If I'm wrong on that, though, hopefully someone will correct me.

I waited years for this port, but honestly it's not that surprising after that long time. But it's still incredibly sad. I really wanted this on my Vita. Like one of my most wanteds since the announcement.

That's literally hilarious. Like I'm sure it has happened before, but certainly I've never seen a game cancelled not once; but twice for the same platform.
It's not like I'm massively disappointed that the actual game is gone either. Like, I'd have played it if it released, but it's not something I'm itching to play even on other platforms - like 2064; Drift Stage; Papers, Please etc.
What is disappointing is what Takao says - the lost opportunities from this port. Gio and Third Party Productions funded a year and a half worth of work on this game for it to be canned - that could have gone on funding y'know, a sea of smaller ports or something bigger like Stardew Valley.
But I find it even worse that it was Code Mystics working on this. I know their porting history on Vita is mostly Neo Geo emulation work, but they also did Risk of Rain and Super Star Wars and seem fairly competent on the handheld. Could've spent that time getting like, a King of Fighters game onto Vita with online play. Or any number of other ports.
What an absolute clusterfuck.
