Is the PS Vita's memory card really slow to write to or what? Why does it take hours to copy things to it over USB?

The 64gb version writes the fastest, buy one today.

It's not the memory card that's the bottleneck there -- it's USB.

USB 2.0 should be able to write around 5-10 MB/s at least, which is not the results I'm seeing. And wifi is even slower, to the point where I don't even try.

Compile Heart just did a presentation with Dengeki

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkU-RQoYRIA

They showed off Seven Pirates with video of how to make the character's breasts larger.

A new game was announced called Mary Skelter that was some weird combination of Kill La Kill, Persona 3, and Madoka

Finally, a new Neptunia game was announced that is most likely Four Goddesses Online.

There was also Monster Monpiece Naked, but that's a mobile game.

Nuclear Throne's performance dies a death in the later stages. It's also very prone to crashing.

My favorite thing about having a 64GB card is now having zero concern for the size of anything. I loaded every digital Vita, PSP, and PSOne game I currently own and could ever fathom wanting to play on it and I still have 1/4th left of a card, and if need be ai can dump some of the seven or eight gigs I have of those PSP/PSOne games I have sitting around. "Oh? SW4, Killzone, and FFX-2 are all like three gigs a piece? Load 'em in, boys!"

Ooh, that'd do it I guess. I watched some of that uncut gameplay on YouTube a few days ago, of like the first few stages, and it looked pretty good but instead I just decided to finally bite the bullet on Dariusburst after watching some footage of that. Really disappointing to hear that about it, because it looked fun!

Later stages nothing, the second boss' death explosion turns the game into a slideshow.
There are also incredibly noticeable graphical errors in the hud, like more than one weapon has a mis-matched reload silhouette and the shovel icon is completely hosed up. It's just shoddy.

It does boot up pretty quickly though, which really takes the sting out of the crashes.

Edit: After looking at a video of the PC version I'm pretty sure the Level Portals don't always spawn in the right place which is an annoying time waster and actually fucks up some advanced strategies.

If you have a PS4 or PC, I recommend playing Nuclear Throne on one of them. It's really fun if occasionally frustrating.

In general the Vita releses by Atlus and XSEED are now regularly getting a $10 price hike.

HGH
Dec 20, 2011
I'm used to the Atlus tax, and I see XSEED is basically making all regular versions collector's edition sized to justify the pricing so it's not that bad. I just haven't had sudden price changes happen to me while waiting for something I ordered ages ago. Really it might just be GS being lovely.

Also SE finally put up an English site for I Am Setsuna and... no Vita version to be seen anywhere.

I mean considering how it ended up it's not such a loss but still, kinda surprising.

The localization of Setsuna is confirmed to be PC and PS4 only, with no retail release. It's not a particular great game and it being made in Unity ensured the Vita version was completely unplayable.

Import impression threads in other forums that I keep track of. Complaints ranged from 1) it's just the same snowy overworld over and over, 2) it's rather short for a JRPG

From what I've seen from the battle mechanics they don't look as interesting as the game it's supposed to apeing (CT), but that I leave that for you to judge:

None of that seems particularly bothersome for what was obviously a smaller project. I don't think anyone played Chrono Trigger for its involving combat either.

Like, how short? Because I'd be cool with a jrpg that I can play and beat in 15-20 hours.

Note that I said "not particular great", which means not something anyone will remember a year from now, not that it was bad. It's got some decent music going for it and the snowy setting is unique instead of being the usual medieval Europe.

Think it's the 15 hour mark, yeah, so might be your thing.

CT's battle system was great for its time. Remember at the time ATB was the most advanced thing in the genre, CT added the dual/triple techs to that.

I havent had a plrecription for my eyes in years so the other day I went and got a new one and it hasnt changed. The doctor was like why havent you seen us in 4 years? I told them im scared of op tomietris when the air shoots into your eyes and dilation. They told me my eyes cold get worse....
I pulled out my playstation vita slim out of thecase and the darn thing won't turn on. I plug it into a computer thinking oh it will get power so it should turn on, nope. The light goes orange and stays orange, unless I hold it down longer then it blinks orange. I've tried probably 7 or 8 mcro usb cables and 4 or 5 diff wall charges and havent no luck ...

I can't find the official Sony VITA charge box but I Remember using a samsung tablet charger at one point. I can't figure it out because someone said hold down PS power and right for 20 seocnds and after doing that it flashes a picture of a battyerr with a / through it but if I use specific chargers or my PC I can't get that screen to appear after holding down the buttons for a long time ... Any idea what is going on with my Playstation Vita? I only had it from christmas 2014 onwards and didnt use it for about 8 or 9 months.
