Freakin' finally.
Give it a while my fellow EU GAFfers for the store to properly update.

Very, very good. Take a look at the OT to see if it's a game for you

could this be a case of dl to ps3 transfer to vita?

It's my GotY 2015 contender.
It is a Dungeon Crawler Adventure game with RPG elements.
Don't let the Dungeon Crawling turn you off, it's a rather nice experience with some good level design.
EU certifications, etc.
I guess it could but who's going to be the first to try? I'm not wasting the money in the hope that it works. I don't even own a PSP anymore

"Eventually" could mean that it'll take a while though. SCEE doesn't have the best history with PSP games. I hope someone from XSEED will clarify what's happening later today

Finally.
I hope TiTS 2nd doesn't take too long to be Vita compatible.

Oh god.
I really hope it's even possible to take care of that with SCEE before it releases. It seems like all of the latest PSP releases were PSP only and never updated or quite a while later.Winnie the Pimp

what does this mean? That it's not compatible with Vita?
Or come out months later.

No one knows for sure right now, but the store only lists it as a PSP game and it's not on the Vita store itself. I don't think anyone here bought it yet.

Oh god.
Yup.
I have little faith SCEE will update this for Vita compatibility. Castlevania eventually was after a few months because people kept putting the pressure on, but it still didn't prompt them to fix any of the others.

I think you can transfer to PSP from PS3, so you won't know until you try to transfer to the Vita.I bought it and can download it to my PS3 from the webshop?
Yep I looked at the same list on the German store. It's really sad and makes me wonder what problem SCEE has with PSP games. I mean, I'm pretty sure this was submitted with Vita compatibility in mind by XSEED. So frustrating.Yup.

I checked for news on a few recent PSP games as well. Mystic Chronicle and Gradius Collection were updated with Vita compatibility in US but not EU as far as I can tell. Go figure.
They are all submitted that way. The final word is with SCEE, if they don't put it on Vita it's their choice not the publisher.

Oh damnit... Was really looking forward to simply downloading this onto my Vita and give it a spin but like this? I'll probably skip it now Can't be arsed with all this transfer crap.

RIP Tits SC in EU I guess
I'll probably have to get it from US PSN and just forget about transferring my save

Anyone bit the bullet and tried downloading it through a ps3 or vita?

That at least is not entirely dependent on SCEE since it's on PC also, which it can be played on a toaster.
Really?! What is up with that? It seems so bizarre, I'd love to know the reasons behind not adding vita support. Its just lost sales for the publishers at this point and all because SCEE decides so on their behalf?
I won't hold out much hope on playing Brandish anytime soon then. I've been looking forward to it since the US release.

Of course, but I'd really prefer to play it on my Vita.
It most likely has to do with certification, making sure that there are no Vita specific bugs and exploits that they don't bother testing for and instead just disable Vita. At least that's the only thing I can think of.

This really makes me consider finally setting up a US PSN only Vita that i was thinking about a while ago...
Tizoc

Careful, next thing you know it, you'll want to make a JP PSN account and another Vita too ;D

lol, no way, my backlog is already taking over my life as it is... I would be tempted to do this though for Brandish, other US only games and mostly to finally be able to play the English versions of FF VII, VIII and IX on my Vita!

And SCEE will do their best to push back!
Not only did it have to come over several months later, but they still managed to mess everything up. Good job SCEE, don't ask why my EU account became secondary.
Please note the *sublime* Google Translate festival when it came to put the English description of the game into the other European languages. It sure is a sight to behold.
Here's my French example, if you're familiar with the language.

PSP only? SCEE pls -.-
I hope Tom can shed some light into this matter. I actually mentioned this scenario in another thread last year and he said that they would insist to get it Vita-compatible as well. Maybe the game was delayed that long because they tried to convince SCEE but failed? http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=134786761&postcount=12
That being said, I am really worried about TitS 2 now. I haven't started my EU copy of the first chapter yet but I might need to get it on my US account as well if I want to ensure save data transfer to work on the Vita <_<''

I hope they will be WTF SONY asap
They were waiting until there was absolutely no way I could afford it for he foreseeable future, that's what.

Took one for the team and can confirm that the EU version of Brandish is a no-go for the Vita (directly, at least). SCEE continues to be worse than useless.

Save a few bucks every month until Vita compatibility is enabled, you should have more than enough by then!

Just found the PR (searching Brandish on twitter brings up some.. interesting results)

I'm glad Brandish is out but I want a Pal release date for Story of Seasons. I use a US Vita PSN account so I just get their games when they come out their. With the 3DS and its stupid region locking I have to wait ages for the official Pal release.

Wow. Really does seem like SCEE decided to be extra scummy and yank Vita compatibility at the last second on purpose then. They don't even acknowledge the game's existence in this week's store update blog post. =\
Maybe it wasn't meant to go live today?

Fucking SCEE, I hope this gets fixed soon enough for you guys, Brandish is AMAZING.

They're "waiting to hear back" on the Vita compatibility according to blog comments, whatever the hell that means
I'm assuming that's why it not listed. The PR went out today and says "now available".
