Gamespy:
It would be easy to dismiss Legend of Grimrock as little more than a first-person party-based RPG nostalgia trip. A group of adventurers. A dungeon. The promise of loot. Magic, monsters, and mayhem. You wouldn't know it by looking at the likes of Mass Effect 3, but in what seems like an age ago, this was all you needed in a roleplaying game. This adaptation of the old Dungeon Master formula (which dates back to 1987) shows that this sort of RPG can not only exist in the fancy-schmancy era of modern RPGS, but succeed as well.

Still upset Atlus sided with Nintendo for Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. I don't mind it's on 3DS, I mind it's not on any PS console cause the PS community are the ones that built the franchise and even made P4G a success on an unsupported system... then they decide to not give us Q but instead a dancing game *FACEPALM*
The developers are the developers of the Etrian Odyssey series which are exclusives to the Nintendo DS/3DS and which sole mechanci is drawing and constructing maps on the touch screen.
Such feature can not be replicated on Vita.
Not owned by Nintendo though, Atlus could/should work on it from the dev or another to be on Vita instead of betraying the fans like such. And there has been hundreds of games where touch screen from the 3DS has been replaced with the Vita touch screen and back touch pad. Seen gameplay, easily portable.
Please do explain how you make a game that actually needs two screens on a console that has one, Slinky.
It has nothing to do with the touch screen. It is the fact that the Etrian Odyssey mechanics require both the map and the "action" to be displayed - and interacted with - at the same time, at all times.
A map overlay, as other dungeon crawlers do on the Vita, would not work, as you wouldn't be able to draw on that while you played.
