The only bit that disappoints me is the games they're choosing. I want Hitman Go!

I hope that this 'mobile -> Vita' thing starts happening in the west as well. There are a ton of mobile games I'd re-buy on Vita.

I wouldn't mind Brave Frontier or Marvel Puzzle Quest.

Dafuq did I just watch?

an anime talked to me, and then I did a thing.

Well... was this a good mobile game? Was it fun?

OK, that trailer literally told me NOTHING about the game. What is it anyway?

 

[orthodoxy1095]

I heard it was similar to Type-0 :-/

Guess not lol...

Oh Shinobi. The teaser himself was troller -_-

Final Fantasy Agito XIII was first announced for cell phones (and graphically actually looked better than the PSP one), it was then moved to PSP (along with The Third Birthday), it was then renamed Final Fantasy Type-0. Then a related, but original game called Final Fantasy Agito was made for cell phones, that's being ported to Vita in a wildly humorous joke by Square Enix executives.

Did we ever get screenshots of Agito XIII's mobile builds? All I remember about those days is this render:

That game was announced for phones in 2006. Mobile games from that era were far below PSP. IIRC, the reason Square Enix moved Agito and The Third Birthday to PSP was because the scope of both projects exceeded then current mobile hardware.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

It's the iOS spinoff of the psp game that's coming to ps4 that itself was a spinoff of a mobile game

Better than nothing.

Still hoping for type-0 on Vita.

Agree and agree.

I haven't played it, but there were some comparisons to Puzzle & Dragons. Seems like it uses the battle system of Type-0 but is arena-based instead of quest-based as far as progression (and without the elaborate story presentation, instead a more open-ended mobile F2P model.)

These two previews give a pretty good idea of the game, they're a little over-positive perhaps as can be the case with import title coverage looking to petition a fanbase but neither denies the game's downsides, they just choose to focus on what's in there. Hope they help:

Ahhh! Hype deflated.

Any chance the plus means it contains type-0 too?

EDIT: Nope. Also.

Yeah, it's still going to be F2P on Vita. It's getting a packaged release in addition to the download.

What??

Annnnnd.. I'm out. Can't play this game on the commute since it will require an active internet connection. Good for those who want this though.

What???
