hot damn that a lot of indies! god bless you Sony.
My most wanted indie title on PS4 is this:
Guns-of-icarus-online-Title.gif

One that I'm excited to check out aswell. I think if I had to pick one that is jot funded by Sony (dying for Rime) my most anticipated at the moment I'd Galak Z or SOMA. Alot of indie devs are doing some amazing work though, you sure don't see the big pubs developing shumps at all.
 
One Upon Light looks interesting, and has a great ambient score if that trailer is anything to go by. They might want to change that Japlish title though.
 
Target Earth!!! Target Earth?!!! These young heads don't even understand the mAgnitude of what was just announced!!! The killer app Is here folks!
 
Oh yeah, Assault Suit Leynos remake gets me excited. I love these type of games coming to consoles, AAA have their place, but my 40 year love revolves around these.

Hopefully, PS4/Vita Japan also gets involved with my favourite 'B' games; Binary Domain, Katamari, Gradius V, The Chikyuu Boueigun, Vanquish, Burning Rangers, Lollipop Chainsaw and the like.

Warframe?

btw good for vita and Ps4, it seems that japanese gamers need games to buy a console. I hope the japanese gaming market will recover.

I heard Galax-Z is coming to Vita and that it might have crossbuy?
That would be pretty awesome news.
Damn, Sony getting some serious kudos at this event. Did Nintendo turn up?

Leynos looks great, and it's nice to see a an indie Japanese release.

It's still surprising that there are so few Japanese Indies on Vita/PS4 at bitsummit. Hope the balance is different next year.

It's gonna take time I think. The big thing this year is that a lot of famous people in the Japan industry have left their corporations and gone indie. It's also gonna take a while to get the Japan indie scene all working together, I think. Bitsummit has certainly been way more successful than last year, and if they can keep that momentum going, the Japanese industry will surely change for the better.

At this rate, I would think there is something wrong in the world when there would be a day without a new Vita announcement.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Leynos remake is crazy news. Trying to push memories of the Assault Suits Valken remake out of my head, because this has the potential to be awesome.

Bumping this because somehow I totally missed it and was about to post the Leynos news from ImpressWatch's news feed.

Trailer (low-res, but official... gotta love Japanese media distribution) to check out:

Japanese publisher E-Xtreme posted a PDF about the game but there's not much in it aside from a logo and an updated version of the mech art. Here's the GoogleTranslate of the PDF anyway, sorry I can't translate like a good person:

Target Earth
I thought I would never hear that name again, that game is one of the hardest games on the Genesis. For true hardcore fans they should go find a copy of the game and give it a go.
