Pretty much any anime plot that starts with "a normal everyday guy who suddenly-" gets a big ol' no from me.

The big twist in the anime is that it's actually a girl main character, and that late series switch totally makes it not gross in any way.

I played the demo a while back on the JP psn and I wasn't super impressed with it. Felt like a game you buy on sale after a few months. Highly doubt it comes to the vita anyway but I'm not paying 40 bucks for it.

Thanks!

And yeah, I have the Japanese version and is offensively mediocre. Easily the worst game produced by Takaki so far. The sad part is that there are glimpses of a genuinely fun brawler in the game, but those are dragged down by the unnecessary bullshit that Takaki put in the game. Stuff, that doesn't offer any innovation to the formula and is pretty much just there because Takaki's schtick is fanservice.

The game sold terribly in Japan even after being delayed once to try and increase preorder numbers, making the decision of not only giving it a western release but an enhanced PS4 port, very baffling.

So this console is being discontinued by Sony, correct? If I picked one up now, how long would I be able to download games from the store?

Sony stopped shipping the units to stores in 2016 and nobody noticed. The physical game publishing and free PS+ games are getting shut down early next year. As it stands right now the PSP can still download games but the actual PSN store was disabled on the device itself and there will most likely be a similar situation with Vita when the time does come.

Is there a way to get the games without using the on-device store? Or is modding the only way to keep the console going?

Basically my job is going to have my traveling a ton in the near future and I thought a handheld that could play the old final fantasy games would be a good buy to keep me occupied on long trips. Just trying to feel out longevity vs current prices.

For now, you can still buy games. "For now" could mean a year, could mean two years, nobody knows. Even after the store closes, if it works like it did for the PSP you should still be able to redownload anything you already bought.

You can still buy PSP games on the PS Store you just have to copy them over manually on a ps3. Or buy them on the web store then access the download list on PSP which I think still works. So, hard to imagine they will stop selling Vita games any time soon.

The Vita's been out for seven years, the PSP for fourteen and can still download games. You're just going to pirate everything anyway. You'll be fine.

Deceitful and black-hearted, perhaps we are. But we would never go against the Code. Well, perhaps for good reasons. But mostly never.
Heck, from what we know it's entirely possible that the only thing that's going away anytime soon is the ability for developers to put new things into the store for the Vita.

Call me old fashioned but I don’t feel like bootlegging games on a recent console. Plus I wanted remote play so I updated to 3.67

Also ordered a remote-play-assist case so that I can have proper L2/R2/L3/R3 buttons

Have found that some hotel WiFi doesn’t play well with Remote Play, so I’m contemplating getting a Vita TV to plug into the hotel tv if the vita doesn’t work

Or would it be easier to get a small WiFi hub that supports UPNP?

Honestly it's kind of hosed up that the failure rate on official memory cards is so bad that it's genuinely looking like you're gonna have to go down the homebrew adapter and :filez: route if you want to keep your vita going until the actual console fails.

Glad I sold my 64gb card when I did

I got sick of swapping two 8Gb cards, and a PC backup, and switching between two accounts, so my Vita stays hacked.

It's hacked now on every firmware so you don't have to use the most unreliable and overpriced external storage device ever to keep it running, is the most exciting release that's happened in years.

Is it perma-hacked on the latest firmware or do you still have to re-hack it every time it boots like you used to a few months ago if you're on anything other than 3.60?

I need to get myself one of those SD adapters because yeah, my 64GB card is going to die at some point. It already did once. :(

If you power-cycle it yeah you have to "re-hack" it by just launching a bubble from the homescreen which takes about 5 seconds.
