Geek Revolt writes "It’s a known fact that the NGP is getting PS3 ports—but what about the other way around? The NGP is going to have exclusive games that won’t be on the consoles, like it’s Uncharted game. Shouldn’t gamers get the chance to experience these stories on their PS3? Here’s why certain NGP games should “eventually” be ported."
Be sure to check out our PSVITA walkthrough with Everyone’s Golf (Hot Shot Golf in the US). There are some awesome feature to check out.
I've always liked the Clap Hanz sport games the controls are not complicated so they're easy to jump in to and the DLC was dirt-cheap.
This along with uncharted will be day one!
Also, i'll get stardust and sound shapes, cause i imagine they'll be cheap downloads...i hope.
OXCGN:
"And no, it isn’t cheaper because of our strong dollar.
With the unveiling of the not so secret name of Sony’s upcoming handheld console today at E3 as the Sony PS Vita (no longer the NGP or PSP2), Americans, Europeans, and Japanese got to find out the price. But not Australians. Yet.
It has just been revealed by EB Games what the estimated RRP for the PS Vita here is."
Wow...import anyone? That isn't fair considering the Aussie $ is better right now...
And he says that price could go UP??? I really really hope the games aren't region locked.
Mind you I mostly feel that way because the US price was so good.
Region free would be great for the consumer especially given how the vita is something you would take with you as you travelled internationally. If it wants to sell 100 million plus then I think region free is a must.
They could also not allow imports restricting hardware from overseas which many do these days to ensure local markets are not affected.
It's outrageous for sure to have a price like that, but, it is Sony after all, Bot Nintendo and Sony do have a rather high regard for their products, and tend to charge for that.
STN Writes:
Now that Sony has officially announced the new name of the NGP to be “Vita”, we decided that it was time to get some hands-on time with the powerful handheld device. After waiting in line for two hours, We finally got to the demo stations and were told that we would have four minute demos with five different games.
Terrible name. Having owned a PSP since 2006 I can honestly say the Vita does not appeal. I know it should but I really hate the form factor and lack of built in storage. I hated having to buy memory cards from the get go for the PSP and doing it all over again plain sucks.
games will probably be worth the same as 3DS ones. I read in an article somewhere (tried to find it but cant) that the development costs for the Vita is the same as the PSP. What i do know is that the Vita in europe will cost the same as the 3DS which is priced at 250 euros here. Dont fight it fanboys the NGP and the 3DS cost the same unless Nintendo drops the price before the Vitas release which might happen.
Regardless on which one you choose both are quality handhelds and in the end its down to the games that you like.
I can't wait to get the PS Vita. The name is fine. After all, we're gaming in a generation where the dominant home console is called 'Wii.'
I think the plan is to have releases that can be played on both...at home on ps3 and on the move with ngp.
So you won't have to wait
posted in wrong place - sorry
They will probably make it to where you can play your NGP games on the big screen like they wanted to do with PSP. Its pretty much the same thing.
The NGP needs to keep it's own exclusives and the "many gamers that aren’t interested in portable games" is not a good enough excuse.
Atleast i think 1 year is too early to even think about it. Make it 3-4 years and maybe then.......
This whole "PSP remaster" thing only makes sense because the PSP is more or less done by now, might aswell make a quick buck and port the best ones on the PSP to the PS3 with better controls, 3D and HD.
I hope the second revision of the NGP will come with tv out hdmi, similar to the second revision of the PSP.
i guess it could go both ways. i know i said this alot but i want the new mortal kombat on the ngp. i want that more than anything cause its the only reason i havent bought it for consoles. day one ngp damnit
