Support NeoGAF

Still questioning. A Sony employee retweeting the news doesn't make it a confirmation.

...c'mon, dude.

What is exactly the point in buying one of the console versions which will most likely be more expensive?

Personally, I'm getting the Vita version, but co-op on one system and larger screen to play on come to mind.

 

[Ollie Pooch]

Yes! Made my morning. Great year for portable platformers with Rayman, DKCR, Guacamelee etc.

 

[Pie and Beans]

I hope this game is filled with the exposition on the deep, meaningful birth and conception of our limbless hero and his blue blobfrog friend that the franchise has so desperately required beyond any meaningless plus points like incredible artwork, gameplay, design, and music.

If the game doesn't boot up on my PLAYSTATION VITA ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM with a long, poetic dialogue on how the business of collecting lums has changed and pondering if erotic relationships can truly bloom on the high resolution 2d artworked back of a cartoon dragon, well fuck me, I'm out.

 

[krioto]

This is great news. Origins looks fantastic on the Vita

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

Not pointing fingers, but some people ITT seem really desperate for this game to not come to Vita..

Now, sit down, I have bad news.

Not everyone owns a Vita.

I know, I know, it's a cruel world. Spare a thought for those less fortunate though.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Joyous news! This has me in the mood to play some Origins now.

I laughed, then cryed.

 

[erpg]

Wonderful news. Still need to finish my run of the first game. Maybe even struggle for a platinum!

 

[Leona Lewis]

Day and date with the console versions is a big deal for a Vita game.

 

[stupid_dad]

Great news,will get day 1

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Gimme that Vita and PC version you apes!

Rayman looks amazing on the OLED and my IPS monitor.

 

[labaronx]

I guess that vita support i keep hearing about is true.

Rayman Legends is looking like a great addition to an already impressive fall lineup for vita

 

[ULTROS!]

I hope I don't break my Vita over Rayman Origins when I purchase this. ;_;

Yes, I'm going for the platinum.

Just let the joy flow. It's @yosp for god sakes

 

[John Harker]

Shocking

 

[Father_Brain]

Shocking

Cool, now spill everything else you know.

 

[whatsinaname]

Brilliant! Played Origins on the Vita and will get Legends on the Vita as well.

And to think I was actually considering buying a Wii U for this game (well, mainly this game) when it was an exclusive.

 

[Neiteio]

Cool news for Vita owners. The Murphy level in the WiiU demo was surprisingly fun and well-done, so I'm happy some non-Nintendo owners will get to try them out, as well.

 

[Seik]

Will buy, I still need to finish Origins on my Vita but damn it looks good.

 

[XTERC]

Wow... one of the reasons I got a Wii just disappeared. I was still going to buy the Wii version over the PS3 version, but after playing Origins on the Vita and knowing how awesome it plays on that platform the choice is obvious.

 

[John Harker]

Cool, now spill everything else you know.

Mint chocolate chip is the best ice cream flavor

 

[Order]

Damn, I was planning on getting this with my future Wii U but this changes everything

 

[Drago]

Mint chocolate chip is the best ice cream flavor

A man after my own heart

 

[Mr.Fresh]

Guys I'm pretty sure Nintendo will give us all plenty of reasons to buy a Wii U in two weeks ! So lets just enjoy Rayman on the Vita! Lol

 

[Takao]

I still don't have the first game #iamtheproblem

 

[Dorimukyasuto]

Will buy! Very surprised and excited.

 

[Leona Lewis]

I still don't have the first game #iamtheproblem

Wasn't it like $7 a few weeks ago? Buy it Takao X-p

 

[Takao]

Wasn't it like $7 a few weeks ago? Buy it Takao X-p

Money's not the issue. It's a game I've been meaning to get to for a while now, but just keep on forgetting to buyt it.

Eurogamer Twitter just posted this followed by the URL to their story:

"Now even less of a Wii U-exclusive: Ubisoft confirms PlayStation Vita version of Rayman Legends -"

that's ruthless, son.

Not being an exclusive was never an issue at all. Delaying the game 6 months to release it at the same time as the other versions was.

 

[Rvaisse]

its not a surprise,
when was the last exclusive rayman game on a system?
oh yeah... never!
Happy for vita owners though.

 

[Stiflers Mom]

And to think I was actually considering buying a Wii U for this game (well, mainly this game) when it was an exclusive.

Well, I did...

 

[Maastricht]

This is very good news. I really liked playing this on the Vita version the most, and my son will love it too. Great also that it has multiplayer now, especially local multiplayer.

 

[Typhoon_Ex]

I knew it! They couldn leave the best version out! DAY FUCKING ONE! (Porbably my next platinum)

 

[kamakazi5]

This would be the version I'd pick up but I know I will want to play with my fiancée so I will probably get it on Wii U.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

Excellent! I was already going to get it for the Vita - the exclusive content is icing on the cake. Best version confirmed!

 

[LiquidSolid]

Not being an exclusive was never an issue at all. Delaying the game 6 months to release it at the same time as the other versions was.

It only made sense though. Delayed ports never do well for a variety of reasons (price differences, less marketing, etc.) and Rayman's not a successful series in the first place, so it's not like they could risk it. Personally, I was afraid it was going to bomb on the Wii U and drag the series down the drain with it (which is a fear I still have with Bayonetta 2).

But still, I can sympathise with Wii U owners and believe Ubisoft deserves criticism over this debacle, as they never should've made it exclusive in the first place.

Anyway, so bought. Rayman Origins was amazing on Vita.

 

[SmokyDave]

This would be the version I'd pick up but I know I will want to play with my fiancée so I will probably get it on Wii U.

She agreed to marry you, even though you haven't bought her a Vita?

Huh, you got a keeper there. Unless she jilts you at the altar and runs off with some dude with a spare Vita.

 

[ULTROS!]

So what version is more superior now? Vita or Wii U?

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Fantastic! I'll most likely get this version then.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

So what version is more superior now? Vita or Wii U?

The Vita version. Perfect d-pad, OLED and exclusive content...

If you have the choice it's a no-brainer really. Vita all the way!

 

[Larson]

Day one. Orgins on vita was a perfect example of how a vita game should be. one of my best gaming experiences in a long time, and its really a well crafted platform game. I just hope that there are coming more good games on my Vita. E3 is the place to be.

 

[dr_rus]

My Vita buying list is rather busy for a console with no gamez.

 

[NotLiquid]

So what version is more superior now? Vita or Wii U?

Vita for the singular experience, Wii U for the complete couch-and-friends experience.

 

[michaelius]

Well that mistake is quite easy to repair.

TBF it's not much of a fear for Bayonetta it already sadly happened with Bayonetta 1.

 

[MikeJAMoran]

Rayman Origins is free on PS+ in Europe this month. I've been meaning to buy it for months - but my Vita backlog is already massive.
