I am disappoint. That trailer show me no KojiPro, or SQuenix. I imagine they'll be there eventually, but shizz man. The price makes me day 1, but the games... :(

TGS. Patience, my son.

With the way PSP went and the way Vita is priced, I don't think Japanese third parties are gonna be a problem.

Seriously I said this when NGP first revealed. Never in the history of a platform has a system revealed with virtually no third party games shown at all. Mario said he had something ready, but they didn't show it.

Now we're at E3, and they have announced, like, a paltry 4 or 5 third party games out of a reported EIGHTY total games?

What the fuck is going on?

Should someone argue why I shouldn't be concerned at this point about the desolate lineup?

You don't really see a lot of games for any new system for a while after launch. Shouldn't be surprising, though the lack of 3rd party stuff in general is a bit remarkable.

I said from the outset that the performance of the PSP, combined with the high budgets needed to maximize the hardware, meant that quality exclusive support was lacking. I stand by that.

The Vita is turning out to be exactly the opposite of what I was expecting. I was expecting a line up of interesting games at a bad price points, but instead I'm getting a great price point with no interesting games. It seems Sony just can't win with me personally these days.

NGP seems like a really good deal, but the lineup seems awful. PSP really scared off the Western Publishers.

This kind of sums up my reaction

Vita is definitely a great piece of hardware but there isn't much games I'm looking forward to. When I buy the Vita, I'll already have my hands on all of the games promised at last year's E3 conference for the 3DS. If Wipeout and Uncharted are launch titles, I'll buy them but the others don't really look that interesting.

Really, it's like bizarro world when Sony's handheld has more first parties lined up for launch than Nintendo's.

And how many of those will end up being PSV versions of a console title?

Or TGS.

But it's definitely weird that they didn't at least give a list with games yet, but that'll eventually be available over the next few days, or not.

As long as there won't be another 3DS-like launch it should be fine though. Just a very few good games may last the few launch months.

Third parties will be hesitant to support the Vita, particularly after the OG PSP.

Not really, since they're going to be able to almost 1:1 leverage their work on consoles for the NGP. Japanese publishers are already on board, to be sure.

Yeah, I wasn't impressed with anything they showed except for Uncharted (which looked great but was definitely not at PS3 levels).

It'll probably get a lot of good ports but I can't see someone making a Vita-only game when they can put it on PS3/360/Cafe/Vita instead.

Of course, nothing on 3DS interests me except for Mario (and Street Fighter IV/Zelda a little bit), so they're not much better off right now.

Nintendo said the same lulz. These handhelds will not get much exclusive titles outside Japan unless Vita is a huge hit

The Ninja game looked a hell of a lot like Shinobido

Shinobido is Acquire's ninja franchise post-Tenchu (Acquire made Tenchu 1, 2, and 4). Really kickass games on PS2 and PSP, and they announced games for Vita I believe.

I imagine they'll have to have their own conference on a later date to discuss Resistance, Killzone, Broken, Smart As, etc. Hopefully that's when KojiPro, SQuenix, maybe Portcom will show up with big guns.

Hardware looks great, price looks great, software support looks... Not great. Your big third-party announcement is a direct port of a console game? And don't get me started on the stupidity of making Uncharted the flagship launch title when Uncharted 3 is coming out at almost the same time.

Honestly, I expect more and more Vita games as time passes by (especially due to having similar graphics as PS3/360). I don't see a lot of western 3rd parties bringing exclusive content to it, but I do see good Japanese support for the thing. Keep in mind that most niche Japanese games (that may come to it) aren't likely to be announced at an E3.

I do however see a bunch of devs (like Japanese ones) moving PSP games over to Vita with HD graphics to release them in the west.

I know it's not the same as a list of brand-new games, but people are overlooking the fact that PSP games available on PSN will be fully compatible and (I believe) run at a higher resolution. So at least there's a very big back catalog of meaty RPGs, action RPGs, etc. that will look good to tide you over until the new stuff gets here. And with PSP's dominance in Japan, does anyone really doubt that 3rd party support will be there?

Shinobido is also a Sony franchise IIRC.

I've owned a PSP since 2005, and have played nearly all the games I wanted to play on it. This doesn't really excite me. Though I imagine those who skipped the PSP will find a tonne of good content to pla

Sony properly rushing out the system. They need to attack Nintendo with all cost, even if this means to sell the NGV heavily under its value and without 3rd party games.
This can also mean, that there could be some hardware problems in the future.

God damn retards.

Did you really expect them to announce all that shit?

They focused on FIRST party.

Wait for TGS too.

That wasn't Samurai Warriors? Looked like it.

I can see Capcom porting the resident evil 3DS games, heh


Don't forget dat Ridge Racer, the PSP launch one was amazing, here's hoping the Vita one impresses too.

The only thing I ever envied about the Vita was the OLED. My plasma can't produce that kind of contrast. Portable games machines are just becoming more and more irrelevant in this age. They'll be seen as little more than children's toys, diversions you give you kids on a long trip.

I am a bit surprised by lack of SE games. I thought they were all over the PSP.

If you've been around for a while you know that lists of companies supporting the system mean absolutely nothing until you see the games. The Wii had lists just like that and what did that amount to?

I honestly didn't even notice the lack of games due to how floored I was by the price.
