Square Enix's iOS games usually come over (barring something very culturally incompatible), so this is a pretty safe bet, at least on iOS.

Media Vision developed almost the entire mainline Wild Arms series for Sony, that might put into perspective of how large they are.
This is false, nothing in Asphalt 8 requires you to pay cash to unlock stuff. In fact every single vehicle in the game can be obtained by playing the game and grinding for the money to buy it. Of course this takes a considerable amount of time to do, but it's different then the sort of paywall that requires real money to make any significant progress in the game, like mobile version of Dungeon Keeper for example.

so uh
is the vita version just Chaos Rings 1, 2 and 3
or is it a completely different game because I really can't tell

It's the trilogy and the prequel in one package as far as I can tell.

if that's the case then I'll probably pick it up for the vita
Square Enix hasn't announced Chaos Rings III or the Vita collection for a western release yet.
That was a long time ago. They have to be a decent size, because they're doing this:
- Chaos Rings III (October)
- Shining Resonance (December)
- Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth (2015)
Even during their Wild Arms days, I don't believe they were that active.

To be fair to SE, the part about it being an important series was Silliconera's own comments.
And Chaos Ring is an important series on mobile.

Chaos Rings was certainly the first mobile game that impressed me and made me want a smartphone.

Ugh that would be so depressing. Please be like I, II and Omega in terms of pricing. ><
Oops, my bad, confused the two of them.

If they make the Vita games a good one instead of the ones in IOS/Android, I may be interested in this.
Darn.
Darn.

I have no idea how you predicted that one. Impressive.
Mmmm... i dunno, Square gonna Square, i can see it having something wrong, i mean it's written nowhere that it has the 3-4 games, it sounds to me more like a limited edition with a book with artworks and a summary of the story so far... I hope to be wrong or having misunderstood though.

I, like many others here, have become so cynical that I picked the first thing no one would be clamoring for.

I'm kinda saddened by the fact that the last non-CR game by Media.Vision to be released outside of Japan was that Dragon Ball game for Wii. Chaos Rings was terrible. Mechanically uninteresting with a ho-hum story and boring enemy designs. The only things I somewhat enjoyed were the character art and some of the music which ranged to great to utterly unmemorable. Oh well...

Confused about the Vita version. Does it include Chaos Ring I, II and Omega as well, or how does it work.
I actually liked the first 2 chaos rings........the third one should be pretty good. That Vita package sounds interesting. Highly doubt when I get a playstationTV I would be able to play this as I know it heavily uses the touch screen.....maybe doable on a DS4 and PSTV combo?

Vita? In.
If they are indeed bringing the entire collection to Vita and somehow it's gets localized I'm all in.
Although I plan to remain a bit cautious. I purchased Chaos Rings from PSM some time ago and it run awfully on my Vita. I might wait to see if the performance improved in the final Vita version of this release.
And now that I see SQEX supporting Vita, I'm actually hyped for TGS.

Please FFXII HD Vita/PS3!!
The first three are already localised and I'm guessing CR3 will be too. Don't see why it would be too much trouble to bring it to Europe/NA.

Well, I like this news. I enjoyed Chaos Rings 1, although the Vita port was horrible.
I was actually gonna buy the rest of the games on my new phone, but I'm gonna wait and see what's happening with this Vita version. Hopefully it'll come to the west as digital only or maybe we'll get an Asian release with English compatibility since the games are already translated.

It wasn't a Vita port, it was a PSM port.

The plot did get a bit more interesting as you went through the other storylines. Just beating the game on one path was ok, but as you saw more paths the story opened up a bit more at the end and it got more interesting... then you are able to complete the story after finishing the four branches. I enjoyed it enough to see it through.
The 2 person combat system was a very limited though, and the weakest link, aside from the way it is structured to almost play like a dungeon crawler, where you just have one main hub to get supplies, then you descend to a chosen level and clear it and return to the main hub and repeat. Except the levels were always easy, even if you purposively picked the ones that were supposed to be difficult.
The puzzles were occasionally fun though, at least. And the pre-rendered backgrounds were pleasant enough as well.
If you're lucky, we may get an asian release with english subtitles.
Vita really is a PS2 to Japanese developers...
It isn't a native Vita game, it's a port of the upcoming iOS game.

Oh nice, despite various shortcomings I really enjoyed 1 and Omega, I hope this gets localized so that I can try out 2.
Those screens of 3 look really different to the other two games though, plus 5 person parties seems odd for the franchise.

They just dont get it.
According to Gematsu, the Vita is only getting a port of the third game:
