Dealspwn: Sony's press conference at the Tokyo Game Show was packed with information and reveals this morning. We set our alarm clocks and watched the whole thing and were presented with some encouraging reveals. So, what did we learn from the show and what sort of future has it shown for the PS4 and PS Vita in Japan and beyond?
Sony Music Entertainment Japan, subsidiary Aniplex, and Palworld developer Pocketpair have announced the establishment of Palworld Entertainment, a joint venture that will be responsible for developing the reach of the intellectual property and for expanding commercial business endeavors, including the global licensing and merchandising activities associated with Palworld, outside of the game.
Crazy that they’ve formed a partnership of sorts, but the game itself still haven’t been released on PlayStation
The PS1 and PS2 both had strong RPG libraries, so it’s not a huge surprise that the PSP saw numerous excellent RPG releases, covering original releases, ports, and spinoffs/sequels to major franchises.
Great list but needs to be 12 you don’t have Star Ocean First Departure and Second Story!
Sony has published a new patent about a controller that can be completely personalized by a user, including its shape and layout.
Interesting idea likely something that will never actually be produced but Sony's simply securing the paten
yeah no, the controllers need the hall effect before investing more time and money into quirks.
There was a lot of positive noise made from this morning's show, and certainly made me more excited for what Sony will show at Paris Games Week. I mean, we didn't see anything from Persona 5 or The Last Guardian today, both of which I would have thought would have made an appearance, and yet I still think they showed off a lot of games I'd like the play. I'm glad the Vita got some love too - let's just hope that translates to some attention in Western markets as well.
Also, Kingdom Hearts' naming conventions really, really need an overhaul. Ugh.
The Sony event was not thatgreat. Square did a great job. We will see whathappens as we get moving
Glad to see the Vita getting some attention, though it is still a relatively popular system in Japan, not so much in the west though.
So whilst I so hope that we see some more games coming to the system over here I can't help but be rather doubtful.
Great show when taken into context. Sony delivered, simple as that, not the biggest of announcements but many great ones. Really showing they have their hand in the pulse.
By context I mean, they still have PAris Games Week and PSX this year. Plenty of time to fulfil most people's requests.
Both companies have stepped up and bought their A game to shows this year and it looks like it will only get better.
Great time to be a gamer.
